Touring Pipes
When my new Ultra Classic arrives I will install touring pipes. I had planned to go with Vance & Hines, as I like them on my Wide Glide, but I have been told that Screaming Eagle touring pipes perform better. Any thoughts?
Thanks.

RE: Touring Pipes
I stand by Vance and Hines Oval Slip-Ons. They look great, and sound better and the stainless steel gives me the sense of security I look for in a muffler. Shop around and you can't go wrong with Vance and Hines...exhaust is all they do...and they do it awesome.
Enjoy your new ride.

RE: Touring Pipes
There are some great quality aftermarket exhaust systems available for the HD. So many in fact it makes deciding on which to buy confusing sometimes. Anyway, I took my Hooker Tuned Flow slip ons off and replaced them with HD SE slash up slip ons. I had no problems with the Hooker mufflers, except for the constant poping on decleration. In fact I like the deeper tone at idle and on acceleration better than the SE mufflers. 
But, because I had the dealer preform the stage one FI remap, instead of installing a Power Commander,the SE pipes seem to make the bike run better. I'm sure the fuel map was lean due to the Hookers having less back preasure than the SE mufflers. I also decided I wanted to keep the bike all HD.
For info the "Like new" Hookers are for sale with only 1000 miles on them.
