if you want something a little louder but nothing too loud and at a good price try this web site they are modified exhaust pipes. They sound great... good luck. www.superflowmufflers.com

I don't know who started the bend down the tab rumor?, but there aren't any tabs. The right muffler has what is essentialy to pipes flattened in half overlapping each other.The left pipe is a short baffle about five inches long with a series of oblong holes around the circumfrence with the end (on the inside) pinched closed.Cut em open you'll see what I meen.

I wouldnt mess with your OEM slip-ons ya never know when EPA\\State will start smoging bikes (by 2010) or with all this excessive noise limits.&nbsp\\; If ya have the OEM Exhaust you can always slip them back on if needed.
