Greetings
Just got back into the harley scene after several metrics. Bought a 06 Electra clasic and have a question for all you experts out there..... My bike, being FI doestn't have the thump that my old choppers used to have . What can you do if anything to get todays bikes to have that good ole Harley thump? Especially at idle.

If you want to feel the thump... replace the rubber motor-mounts, get a radical cam, put a set of hot-headers on it.

The twin cams ain't gonna give U the Potato sound of the older motors..
If U idle them down below 950 U'll oil pressure won't be enough.
Cams will help a little,, but it still won't sound like a Pan, Shovel, Evo.
I'd suggest u buy an Evo or older bike....
