Default Do these mufflers make my butt look big?

Stage 1 almost done. Has a date with the dyno next week (the master was out today) so I'm holding judgment on performance. I had to just do it all at once, I couldn't stomach the thought of doing another summer running that hot. So far it runs great with a baseline dyno in there, maybe a little rich. SEAC and super tuner are in there too.

These monster ovals sound badass with the duals. Noticeably louder than stock and way deeper. The subwoofer of mufflers.

No pic it didn't happen so here is a lame one from the cell.

Happy New Year!

On the Ultras, the Monster Ovals look good and they sound nice, especially if you get rid of the cat.

My buddy had them on his 09 Ultra Glide and they sounded ok. He put duals on it with the Monsters and it sounds great. No cat and duals really made the mufflers sound deep and with a good rumble...

I have had Monster Ovals for the past 15,000 miles. Went with extended bags so had to change pipes went with monster rounds. The pipes get louder and deeper with age. you may want to consider rotating the end caps 180 degrees. The angle will line up with the back of the bags
