Default Slip ons

Will be doing the stage one to my 05 in the new year. What brand is recommended for slips? Was thinking of just the Rineharts or VH.

I replaced my V&H ovals after 1000 miles with the Hooker Tuned flow slip ons. (Has external adjustment for torque and hp) Absolutley love it. Sound is a louder than the V&H but not obnoxiously loud.(deeper rumble also)

They're both great products but , the answer your looking for is to listen to other bikes before you spend too much money experimenting.[like I did] That could be tough though if your not around other bikes much in a one on one situation. Also pay attention to the bike that sounds good if it's running true duals or the stock header, makes a noticable sound change. Good Luck!

Another vote for Hooker Tuned-Flow slip-ons. Not the loudest, but the biggest HP increase overall.

Another Hooker user here, I just followed the advice of my mechanic. For true duals he recommended the Rineharts which were not released yet, & then the Hookers, if I wanted slip-ons ( 1/2 the price ).

Good sound, classic H-D/bagger quality. Just my 2-cents.....but I'm still a rookie......
