Forgive my ignorance, I'm pretty new to the riding world. I'm looking at a 2010 Road King and it has the stock exhaust. I want something loud and obnoxious, but have no idea what to look at. I wouldn't be opposed to something with removable baffles. Something loud around town then maybe a little quieter on longer rides. Thanks for you input.

 

the header has a catalytic convertor in it, so you would need to remove the cat or replace the headers ( be aware that you are now tampering).

there are all kinds of pipes available and all the H-D touring models can use same type pipes ( they all have the same frame, the difference is in the amount of plastic hanging on the frame...and some badges and speakers).

you may do well with a supertrapp 4" tunable pipe with the disc system, these can be about as loud or as quiet as the rider wants- in minutes.
harley sells supertrapp made mufflers, "Nightstick" and "Fatshots" which can be tuned like any supertrapp once the tamper screw is removed

Just gut the cat and cut out the baffles and you will get what you desire. Trust as I just did that...

 

Vance and Hines Short Shots - very loud with that nice rumble. Or try Long Shots, a little less quiet and will probably look better on the RK.

Or try D&D Borzilla, I've never heard that one in person, but comments here indicate it is loud.

 

Samson fishtails without baffles.

The Borzilla maybe to much pipe for a stock bike but D&D makes the Fatcat and it is available with different baffles. The performance baffle is loud and mean sounding. There are plenty of choices just go to a bike night or a dealership on Saturday. Listen for the sound you like then ask the owner about his pipes. most of us love to talk about our bikes.
