Default exhaust help

I have ordered my very first bike. I ordered a '07 Road King Classic (Black Cherry Pearl). Ship date 8/21/06. Local dealer says Rush mufflers 2.25"!!! Is that a good choice? I loved the true dual Rineharts. Will i have power lose with true duals. will the rush mufflers be fine or should go with true duals.

Better be sure the Rinehearts have the O2 sensor bungs in the headers before your order them.......if that is your decision. You'll lose a little bottom-end torque with the true duals, but gain some heat relief on your right side.
Personally, I'd wait awhile and ride it stock until everybody catches up to the '07 changes..........but it's your ride and your money!
Good luck and enjoy!

Do you have to remap your bike if you add true duals? What if you add duals and a new K & N intake?

AVOID RUSH - BAD EXPERIENCE HERE - POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE.

ECM will have to be altered/tuned for the mods and a dramatic increase in performance will be realized.
