There are hundreds of options for slip-ons depending on personal preferences. Go to a dealer bike night and talk to a rider whose pipes you like the sound of.

I personally like Klock SS mufflers nice low rumble at cruising and a growler when you get on it. I also just learned that because they don't have brand name stamped on them or indentations they are interchangeable so you can switch right to left side mufflers. So you can hide any little cosmetic whoops.

Only $304 including freight.

Did I mention they look great!

A buddy gave me his old tour pack FREE and the detachable bracket was $129 on eBay. Total $129!

i like vance and hines pro pipe. i never thought two into ones looked that great but i got used to it and the cadence plus performance make up for the lack of symmetry. if you want a deal on slip ons they are simple and easy to find on ebay or even craigstlist. search on google

site:craigslist.org harley slip ons

or any variation and it will show you whats for sale around the country. most guys are pretty cool about shipping and stuff. i have bought a lot of stuff using craigslist and havent been burned once. i bought a mustang seat from michigan and a harley rain suit from north carolina and they even paid the shipping. im frugal so buying lightly used is always my preferrence but sometimes what i want just isnt available.

good luck tho

Buddy of mine bought some on ebay. Look like Rineharts, and real deep rumble. Not too loud but even deeper than MY Rineharts. Sound real good. They do stick out a little further than the Rineharts do, but I'm sure that can be changed by replacing the tips if you don't like that. He only paid about $200 & $15 to NC.

Good findings.

As a mater of fact I clicked on the next thread to get the updates missed during my hiatus, and I saw this...


These are the ones I was talking about (not my buddy's bike but these are the ones). This user's sn is Jonny Mac. He may have the info on them.
