Wow, that is sick! Totally made up my mind to go with the setup from Fuelmoto.

Beautiful bike brother!

MIA- Gains are slight but noticeable. I wasn't looking to gain much but was after looks and sound and that's what I got. Seat of pants dyno is pleased but not impressed.

As for the popping on decel it is almost gone. I have enriched the 0% RPM range and have minimal if any popping. Climbing hills at 80MPH at 3K RPM can be annoying but cruising at 3K just under 78MPH is fine. I can hear my music thanks to the windshield, I had my son as a passenger the other day and he said he could hear it as well.

One last note, it IS possible to scrape these pipes through turns. I was rounding an off-ramp with my son (90lb) and me weighing 235 and heard scraping that wasn't familiar. Right after I felt the floorboards scrape as well as heard the familiar sound of them. I'm not sure what the suspension is set at but I will be riding at 45-50psi form now on just to be sure. There is now a small but noticeable scrape on the lower pipe. Not too pleased with myself...

You could swap out the 1" taller shocks from an Ultra they can be had off eBay for around $50.

Those look awesome!! If I was 20 years younger I might have chosen them also! If you ride with a group I bet you'll be ask to ride in the back. HUMMM! That's what I need, I'm sick I having to lead all the time.

Seat is a Danny Gray Backrest Bigseat. Made for a road king but was told it will fit any late touring model by Shelly at Danny Gray and it did. Got a great deal from Denniskirk. Have the Large P-pad for a Road King as well and it all fits fine.

Sweet looking set up! My bud here at work has an '09 SG and he put the same pipes on his bike. Really loud when he rides in in the morning, but we toured together last summer for 3 days and I really didn't think his bike was as obnoxiously loud as I expected.

That SE air cleaner set up is da' bomb - really sweet!

I love the ground pounding sound those pipes have. Be careful. It's a given that they will damage your ears. I have lost over half the hearing in my right ear and I know alot of it is due to straight pipes that have been on all my V-twins with the exception of my Roadglide. These are not the best pipes for HP and Torque but man do they sound good.
