Default Exaust decisions??

05 Ultra..Stock at this time. I want to do Stage1 in the winter and am not sure what is best and why. Should a person go tru dual or just slip ons. What happens to fuel mileage. Down or up. What do I gain over slip ons versus tru duals..Cost of course much more..Do i need to drop big coin or moderate..What does the other glide owners have going on..40 percent of my rides are 2 up.????

Yota,

I love my rineharts. I have much more power, lower heat on legs and they sound great. I get 40-45 mph riding like a bat outta hell. Not that I would ever speed.

SuperTrapp slip-ons with internal baffle. 41 mpg typical but the faster I go the lower it gets. Nice tone but not too loud and fully adjustable. Stage 1, down load and SE air cleaner kit. Not enough people look at these as a realistic option. Noise is just noise. Motor music is just that... music.

I have done some research and hear these are real good.

I have the S.E. Performance slip ons which I was happy with back when I could ride my bike.

Pretty good write up on them but they look a bit "Ricey" I'm not a 2 into one fan. Love the look of duals.
