"By the way..never had a "jap" bike, have owned Harleys for 25 years."
"Have always kept the exhaust stock, that's why I'm asking."

and know you know why Meds are distributed... someone needs to get back in line for their share...
Wow... a forum... to get your blood pressure up over that... life is to short. take a break and go ride your bike to calm down.
It's just so Ironic that people think that Harleys are 100% american made....

Go ahead and ***** UP your bikes...make them SOUND and RUN like ****.. You people amaze me. you spend 10k to 20k for a harley, then want to go CHEAP? Why? Quit buying them chrome doo-dads, doo-rags, vest, patches, shirts, attending rallies, dinner rides, breakfast rides, lunch rides, and spending money at Bike Night, YOU might have enough money saved to purchase a quality set of pipes that will enhance your Harley riding experiences. Maybe you should carry your CHEAP A$$ back to the jap bike you came from.

As far as the sound, that's totally in the eye (or ear in this case) of the beholder! There are quite a few aftermarket pipes that I personally think sound like ****, as you eloquently put it. But people are still putting them on. As far as run like ****, I think that varies quite a bit as well.
Now, I popped the baffles open on my 2003 Lowrider (used a 1 1/2" steel pipe) and they sounded great, and didn't experience any problems with how it ran. BUT (and a big but at that!), I only did it to get a better sound while I was trying to decide what pipies to get. Two months later I picked up the set that I really wanted. On top of that, I have a carb'd bike, so I'm not sure how that affects FI bikes (probably not much though, as you typically don't have to remap unless you swap the air cleaner as well).

Its guys like Blackoak that make forums no bueno. Part of this place and the Harley is wrenching on it yourself, experimenting, and that good stuff. Where the heck do u think bobbers and choppers came from "chopping" up the the bike. I say hack away brother!!

Well folks thats the way I see it. Don't agree then thats your perogative. When I do something on my bike I don't go cheap, I do it the correct way and not cut corners. I have learned that if you do it right the first time out, then you will realize the benefit and cost savings incurred.

RE: Drilling out stock pipes
Why didn't you just say that the first time? Thats a big step away from "That Dog don't Hunt" calling the dude a liar and "Go back to your jap bike" etc etc.
People like you are always ready to slam some dude asking a simple question. Giving us your High and Mighty BS...
I've thought it over... U suck.
