My brother has an 05' RK with the old SE Performance slip on's p/n# 65115-98, Kerker Mikuni baffles and stage one and his sound is deep.
As a matter of fact, it sounded so good, I just did the same on my Ultra but not as deep yet with the new baffles. I'm guessing they get lower with more carbon buildup over time.

I ran Thunderheader slip-ons for several years and they were the loudest and possibly deepest I've heard but there's a lot more that contributes to the sound than just the pipes.

My Rush slipons are pretty loud and deep. They sound good to me at least.

Yeah, I ran the ThunderHeader on my lowrider and really liked it. I realize the umpf of the motor also has to do with sound but this guy's pipes were so deep that they made their own echo. If I see him again,,,,,, I'll find out what they are. Thanks people.

Exclamation Python Slip Ons ?

Have a Great deal offered by my Indy on a set of Pythons Slip Ons for my 08 FLHT I have heard them on other Tourers and sounded decent to me. My main concern is can't afford to do any remapping or other Mods at this time but my understanding is just bolt them on and good to go.. Any Comments on this appreciated..

Loudest?? Fish tails on samson straight pipes. Deepest?? Thunderheader, especially with a little engine work.

I had the Rush 2" on my 06 Heritage and they were deep and loud. I now have the V/H Monster Ovals. I love the deep sound but are by no means loud.
