Well I finally decided what to do - with lots of reading on this site

VandH Ovals

And to put it all together - dynoed

Droping off the bike Tuesday and picking up Wednesday. I can not wait

steve, I am sure that I will get some power change but did you notice any changes to the heat? This is what I am really hoping to gain

Yes, a big difference, enough to keep me from going to tru duals to help get rid of the heat.

Kingultra, that's close to exactly what I did on my 05 E-Glide,(only difference is Ness Big Sucker vs K&N), and like they say, feels like a whole new bike. I went from stock(maybe 60hp), to 74hp, and torque wound up close to 80lbs right off the line. Man you won't believe the difference. I love the Ovals but they're not the deepest sound, but on a tourer the pipes shouldn't be crazy loud anyway...Joe Mac
