Super trap or jackpot exhaust
I have a 2008 Streetglide that is in desperate need of a new exhaust. I am currently running Rinehart True Duals with full stage 1 and 211 SE cams. Once we added the cams to my bike the Rinehart exhaust is just loud and has that high pitch crack to it. I have been looking at putting the stock headpipe back on and either going with a SuperTrapp SE slip on or with the Jackpot dyno tuned slip on. I would like the bike to be quieter but I still want it to sound like a Harley. I am interested in hearing from anyone who has either pipe and those that have owned both to give me some opinions on sound. I like the way the old SE pipe sounded but I have never heard a Jackpot where I live in Alberta. Thanks ahead of time for your comments.

I have SE211 cams in my RK, with Rinehart slipons over stock headers. They sound fantastic. Deep and throaty. I don't have enough experience to make a recommendation, but the diffrence could be the stock headers. A friend of mine that rides the same bike I do has SE204 cams with Rinehart TD's, and the tone of his exhaust is higher pitched with more crackle. Good luck in finding the the right combination to the tone you're looking for.

ive heard both have the jackpot, but they were both no cam and the supertrapps were on a dyna,they sounded simialer,one +with the jackpots is baffle choice. i got the dyno tuned, they also offer a standard 1-3/4 or 2 inch and they have a quiet with or without a silent insert , getting the sound u want shouldnt be to difficult by swapping baffles.

I had SE Touring slip ons that I just replaced with Jackpot Dyno Tuned slip ons. The Jackpot Dyno Tuned slip ons have much better sound and the quality and performance is excellent. Also, you can buy the quiet baffle if you want a little less loudness. Lastly, they are very reasonably priced and FuelMoto is very customer focused and knows HD's.

My best riding buddy has your exact set up, I can understand your concern over the loud and the crackin sounds. He is hard to ride behind.
I myself have the 98B's (same thing as the SuperTrapp SE's) on stock head pipes, and my other good buddy as the SuperTrapp SE's on his RG with stock headers.
Riding behind both of them, the SE's have less cracklin sound and a real nice low HD rumble. In my opinion the best HD sound from a slip on I have ever heard. From my seat, I love the sound of my SE's.
p.s. my old 88" stage one with the SE's and stock headpipes and stock cams performs almost as well as my friends 96" stage one with the Reinharts. He doesn't pull away from me until somewhere over 50 mph. Really pisses him off.

super trapp
My bike is 09 RK with stock header/cam etc.
I have super trapp 3 " internal baffle w/ tapered end caps. 10 disks per side. I also tried jackpot dyno tune w/ standard baffle. Both sound great. relatively quiet. I went with supertrapp. I liked the tapered cap and I could add disks if I want to go slightly louder without having to buy another baffle.
I also had sampson wide oval. Too loud for me.
True dual may give you different results. Most true dual bikes I hear are very harsh sounding. But I think generally that is the intent so they also generally have the louder mufflers.
