For me, this combination puts out a deeper sound at all RPM levels and gears without the annoying harmonics I got from the Cycle Shacks - and I love 'em. Unless you're looking for the raspy drag-pipe sound, I think most would be very pleased with the SE II/BCT baffle combination - they just speak "Milwaukee Twin"!
Thanks for your confirmation, I think I'm on the right way. But looking on the BCT Website makes me sure, buying there will be not a cheap pleasure ....
Are there some dealers who offers better prices???

I have never seen them for sale anywhere except on their website, which is where I got them.

Whats the difference between Screamin Eagle slip ons and Screamin Eagle II slip on's? I have the older screamin eagle slip ons, and I am considering getting rid of them for a new exhause (bike is a 03 XL1200S).

The SE II are the older and better ones.

I guess i lucked out finding excellent used SC II's for my 06 1200. Very easy install and cost 70 bucks. Included entire exhaust system too, with heat shields.

Love the sound!

Thanks for the information. I just looked and saw I had SE II's, not Screamin Eagles as I originally thought. Either way I am probably going to replace them in favor of a 2in1 system.

SE II's have removable baffles (so BCT's or others bolt right in), I do not believe that is the case with the new 49-state Screaming Eagles...

@Thumper 26, the SE SPs have baffles you can't remove, that's the info, I got form a German Sporty rider who have the SE SP slip ons on his 883 iron. Maybe he is wrong, but I don't think so.
