Smile Love my new Bub 7's

Installed them last week. Too loud for my taste but nice low tone rumble. I will look in to the stealth baffles. they are resonable once you get to cruising speeds. Used map from fuelmoto and i can tell the bike runs really nice. on a 90 degree day the temp went to 218f. so is not running as cool as people are reporting and im using the harley oil cooler. i will adventually take it to a tuner after i install a set of cams. any suggestions for a good set of cams to match the TD's with PCIII?.

Check around before you take it to the tuner. There are tuners, and then there are tunas.

Cooldude, are the "stealth baffles" from Bub, or are the from someone else?
I'm running Bub 7s also and find them too loud.

cooldude, I am waiting for them for an new SG. I think the bubs sound really good and I like that black with chrome tip. I thing they will look really good on a black denim SG.

How do they run when you are entering a highway? What are the other mods you have? I am hopeful that I can accelerate up to 80 as I do with my 08 stock headers.

i used to have the rush slip-ons with the modified baffles from fuelmoto and a filter with PCIII. i changed the map that keith gave me to increase the mpg and i did manage to get very close to stock numbers. but the bike was not as strong at the higher rpms. now im using the map that keith send me with no mods to it, the bike is as strong at the lower rpms but i can feel the difference in power at the higher rpms. the bike runs stronger now after 3000 rpms. The TD's give you the volume to run better at higher rpms. i like to be between 2000 and 2500 when cruising and thats why i will look in to getting cams to help the engine at this range.

I have the BUB7 slipon's with PCV and Heavy Breather. Absolutely love the sound. Sounds like a Harley should when you open her up and purr's like a kitten on the highway. Perfect for the radio.
