Default V&H slip-ons

I have an 08 Elect Glide Classic. I am considering the V&H tapered slash-cut slip-on #16741. Does anyone have these?

I am looking to get a deep throaty sound. Not so loud that my neighbors hate me and the cops look at me. Am I looking at the right V&H model?

All feedbackwill be appeciated.

I got the basic slip ons on my 08 FLHR. I love em!!!!! Excellent sound/seems to have picked up the power too! I had them on my 03 also. Fit andfinish top notch too! Ride along with Rhineharts>>Cobras>>Rush>>V& H sound better. They're also four inchers>>look better.

My Daughters got em on her '04 RK Custom. Compared to my Rineharts... I must admit, I like the sound of her's. After a couple years though the left one started rattling internally. Just yesterday, I dug into the noise to put the fix on it. I pulled the baffle and crimped the inner end just slightly with pliers for a snug fit when pushed all the way in...She's happier than heck!

Rush slip on's have a great sound. My brother has them and the sound is one of the best.

I have the ovals and at first I thought they were too loud because I get home at around 2am. Neighbors don't seem to mind and get more waves form them on my way to work than before. Must be because they hear me coming.

Be careful, I have been told if you change the baffle size, without changing the air incleaner intake and adding the SERT, PC111 or FUELPAK, you will have a lot of issues.The bike will run very rich possibly causing damage to the bike. Called Harley Davidson Customer service and was told not to increase the baffel size to more than2" without adding theincreased volume air cleaner and the SERT.
