Default Loudest and deepest slip on for a streetglide?

What slip on do you guys think is the deepest and loudest for a streetglide. I have a 09 no cat with a stage 1. Was running fuel Moto jackpots I am now running two brothers racing touring slip on. But still not happy.

in general a loud pipe will have no baffling/sound absorbtion material- that tends to emphasize higher frequency sounds...tinny.

I'd suggest that rather than drop cash for set 3 or 4 ( like some riders here have), go to a bike night and hear other bikes- see what you like.

Once you narrow that down look into the power characteristics of the pipes that you like




the loudest bike I ever heard could not keep up with my stock 38 hp panhead

Deep rumble and loud generally don't come together, looking for a nice low rumble generally means more packing/baffling in the mufflers which tends to make them a bit quieter.


I will say my Klockwerks slip ons have a decent level of both, nice low rumble at idle then really barks when ya crack the throttle. The more you twist the louder it gets.

Might check your state on excessive noise, then as mentioned listen to other bikes and figure out what you want.

High compression pistons and cams really wake up the exhaust note. Not sure you can get the sound you are looking for with just mufflers.

Supertrapps on my 02 SOUND GREAT!...always get the "sounds like a Harley" compliments...little loud....baffles are weak. (Have true duals)

Have 4" rineharts on my 2012....sound ok, nice rumble. I am sure they will sound better when I install de-catted head pipes...

4 inch Rinehart's if you want loud slip ons. They will get obnoxious on a long trip though. Decatted head pipe and 2 into 1 like the D&D Fatcat, if you really want loud. But then you are looking at a tune also.

I got some cfr's and they sound great, can't believe they are just slip-on's.
