Badbagger....if you can hang on a bit, I am waiting for some Bub 7 slipons to go with a set of V&H Dresser Duals on my recent HQ 95 build. I plan on posting a sound clip.
IMO, I'd keep the Dresser Duals and add some slipons.
My build is 9.5:1, full headwork, HQ Pro Tuner piggybacked on a PC III USB with HQ 0039 cams.
I was going to go with RH TD's until I heard of all the horror stories from local rider whom had multiple sets replaced due to the header pipes cracking. Then I decided on V&H true duals with ovals.
Now I am looking at the new Bub 7, since it is designed for big cubic inch motors. Hopefully the quality is better than the RH TD's.
Header pipe cracking? Man you should see how mine are welded up. I seriously think you would have to have them mounted wrong to do that. The header pipes are seriously beefy.
08 Road King Classic - Just installed screamin eagle stage 1 air filter, vance&\\;Hines header pipes with Rinehart mufflers using a power commander and then had it mapped on the dyno. \\; I am very happy with the sound and performance max power 73.75 \\; torque 86.76. \\; This jumped up 5hp and almost 10 ft lbs from the basic map downloaded from power commander/dyno jet. \\; \\;
