Just looking for some experienced opinions on slip-on pipes for my 09 FLHRC. RUnning stock now but would like a slight increase in the sound. What are your opinions please?

Nice looking Roadking. You'll get a ton of different opinions on this subject. My experience, if you don't want to spend a ton and just want good Harley rumble, I would check out FuelMoto's Dyna Tuned Slipon's. Last time I looked they were 299.00. Also Rush w 1.75 baffle. I had Rush with 2" baffle on my 09 EGC. Sound was good, not too loud! Theres a recent thread where Jamie with FuelMoto gave a list of different exhaust he had tested the db ratings. That might help! Good luck man, Keep the shiney side up

After trying a set of RUSH slip-on's, I finally decided on a set of Rinehart's. They sound great and seem to give my RKC a little more power. They look pretty good too.

I envy you guys with larger fuel tank capacity.

Spend some time looking and listening to others pipes or you will end up with a rack of them on the garage wall. I like my Dyno tuned Jackpots from Fuelmoto.

I spent most of the summer looking and listening at meets and rides. And then I did my picking. You'll find that most guys that pick right off the start think thats theres a better pipe out there for them. Don't go off just sound, thats a sweet ride you have and it needs a good looking exhaust.

+1. Or, try the V&H Monster Ovals for a little less loudness, but still with plenty of deepness.

Best way though is to find somebody that has the exhaust sound you are looking for, and then ask them what they are using.
