Is any one running this set up? If so what's your overall opinion. I like the looks of the hypercharge, and I like the tts mastertune. Not sure about the crusher exhaust, but then again, I'm still up in the air about a lot of exhaust, (jackpots, V&H, ect.). How is Kuryakyn as far as quality goes? I realy like their ISO grips, that's what got me looking at some of their other products.

You shouldn't even put Kurycrapp'n & Vance & Hines in the same sentence.

I guess I just gave one man's opinion.

David, watch what you buy from Kury, I have had good luck with them, so far, but the chrome is hit and miss. We need to talk................ I have the TTS and I can show you the finer points of it's uses. Let's hook up soon, and we can talk shop. I'm ready for a ride, and you live in an area I wouldn't mind riding too. PM me and I'll give you my #.

Did you decide to go with the Perfect Storm exhaust? Just wondering; we were talking with a shop owner about it; he's put it on about 5 bikes up here and all owners love it! We are strongly thinking about going with the PS! If you did put it on, how do you like it? We met up with "John" who has over 3000 miles on his SE Ultra Classic with the Kury Perfect storm installed; he loves it and we heard it in person last night, wow is all I can say! He's had no problems so far.

I've decided to wait at this time. I'm looking at several options, but I'll probably do it in stages. Thanks for the input, the components of the PS are still options. I'm definitely going with the TTS.

I mounted a lot of Kuryakyn accessories on my '06 GL1800. The quality was great. I only had one quality issue that the vendor quickly resolved.

I like the looks of the Kuryakyn Perfect Storm Harley exhaust but if it's not H-D, I don't put it on my Ultra Classic. I don't care for the intake style.

I saw the "perfect storm" system while in Sturgis. They were set up at Black Hills HD. The system looks and sounds great. Talked with Mike and he did a great job explaining the system and the advantages of a complete system including intake, exhaust, and tuner. They won't have a tuner that will work with the 11's for a month or so.

I'm seriously considering this system for my new RGU.

American Thunder did a stock 2009 (I think) with this set up and got nearly 20% more horse power on the dyno, so there must be something. Just saw it last week on TV.

Smile Perfect Storm

I had the Perfect Storm put on my 2010 Ultra Limited during bike week in Laconia. I've since put almost 3k miles on the bike. All I can say is WOW! I initially did it because Skippy told me it would solve the heat issue that Harley's have because the catalytic converter is right below your right leg. My thigh was always getting hot from the pipes. But man o man the increase in torque and horsepower was impressive to say the least. I recently had the bike Dyno'd and the tech was impressed with the numbers. Sounds great too! And no more burning leg issue.
