Default Question on muffler compatibility

I have a 2003 Screaming Eagle Road King, 103" engine, stock except for 4" Vance&Hines slip ons that are loud....I need to change over to something not so loud....(long story, HOA's suck and right now I don't have it in me to fight it, but I will someday soon when life normalizes).....I contacted V&H for perhaps some quieter baffles but they do not make this slip on any longer.....Just need to make it a bit less noisy for a time.....

Friend has SE slip ons off his 07 Road King that he took off for Reinhart true duals...

Anybody know if I put these on w/o any engine issues, etc?? Will the electronics recognize the mufflers and adjust accordingly?? Engine stock except for current V&H mufflers.....

Check the diameter of the head-pipe vs. the slip-on for size compatability. Do you have the pipes that came with the Bike?
If not look on Craigs List, et. - they are really cheap.

The SE slip-ons should work just fine. If you add a high-flow air cleaner, you'll need a tuner.
