Default Deep rumble

Going pick up my bike "2011 FLHTK" at the dealer in a short while. Had Monster Ovals, Power Duals, Stage 1, and SERT installed yesterday. I just hope its everything I'm expecting it to be. I didn't want loud but I wanted that deep rumble.
I've always had dual exhaust on my trucks and always had Goldwings. When I saw my friends Ultra with a 96in with Monster Ovals and then I heard it. Well all I can say is I think that was the #1 thing that influenced me to switch over to H-D. I will know in an hour if it was worth it.

Awesome, and welcome. Can't speak to the GW's, but that is exactly what I have as well, and really like it - with the exception of cams. My neighbor (who is a car guy) says it sounds like one of the old 55's he used to have.

I believe the Limited's come with the SE255 cams, are you going to have it dyno'd as well? Highly recommend it.

Just got back and got caught in 2 rain storms on the way home. Some bit louder than my buddys though. Dyno at 80.07 hp and 93.63 torque. And when I would get asked what pipes I was going to put on I would tell them I wanted it to sound like a 58 Buick with duals. Sounds great can't tell about the power difference in the rain. Going wash again.

Runs Great and much, much cooler...Couldn't be happier... this baby runs.....and heat is no longer an issue here in south Florida. Redline Oils in all the holes...
