Yup. Used to run Fat Cat on my 06 Street Glide. Completely different sound. The FC is louder and more aggressive like a stock car or 70's muscle car. Got a little blatty when I got on it. The FC is by far the best looking and performing 2 into 1 out there. I just don't like the sound. The Bubs are more mellow with a low bassy thump. They get aggressive when you get on it but not obnoxious.

Mike,
Thanks for the info. I think you've convinced me. I'm gonna have to try a set of Bub 7s.

I wonder if Jamie would pipe (pun intended) in on these mufflers being as he tests tons of exhausts with other performance options. Preferably dyno numbers and mpg. I also wonder if they'll get louder as time goes bye and if they will replace packing for free like FM.

Great thread, I'm glad I found it. These sound like the perfect addition to my new 09 UC I'm picking up tomorrow. I had V&H Ovals on my RKC but want a new sound for the new bike and these sound great. I just wanted to confirm if these are the slip-on's everyones talking about before I put my order in.

You know if I'd been personally surveyed by Bub for what I wanted in a slip on muffler for sound, style & performance they couldn't have done it any better. They hit a home run with me with these.

I agree, the Bub 7's have a really nice deep sound.
