Default Jackpot muffler question

Anyone Try One Of The Fuelmoto Jackpot Mufflers Without Any Other Upgrades Like A/c And Power Commander? Was Looking For Strictly Slip Ons.

I did. They work and sound great. I bought the whole FM package and installed the mufflers first and took it out for a nice 50 miles before returning home to put on the AC and PCV. No problems. One tip for sure is to place the loosened muffler clamps onto the muffler flange BEFORE slipping the mufflers onto the headpipes. Otherwise it's a beatch to get-em on.

But once you've gone that far, you might as well get the PCV and AC kit to get the full benefit of increased HP, Torque and cooling.

I did the jackpots only and I am happy with the sound and performance. I have 6k miles on them. I will get the air cleaner and PC, hopefully before the summer heat. Upcoming 2 week road trip has the reserve funds on E.

I did also on an 09 SG. I have since put on a SE heavy breather and race tuner, but not with the jackpots. They were good performance wise, but were too quiet for me. I then installed their louder baffle on the and still not loud enough. Wild pig baffles fit in those pipes, so I put 2 1/2 baffles in the jackpots. Loud enough, but a bit tinny. I may try the superflow exhaust. If I do and I like them, I'll sell you the jackpots for a very good price with the regular and louder jackpot baffles. Every time I get a different bike, I go through several sets of pipes before I get the sound I want.

Thumbs up

The stock delphi ECU can automatically adjust for the Jackpots, but the bike will still run lean (lean=heat). In fact, the stock ECU can self adjust for Stage 1 AC as well.

If that's holding you back, get the jackpot slip-ons. You should be able to pick them up in great shape used from some of the forum members.

I have them and they sound great.
