Leaning on the V&H Power Dual with the basic slip-on's. The main reason is V&H have 4" mufflers.

My '07 UC had Bassini mufflers along with PCIII and stage 1 AC. It ran great until I put the true dual (Bassini) pipes. When I did that the low end torque went away while the rest was improved. I always had to get the revs up a bit to take off from a stop or it would rattle something awful. Yes it was dyno tuned too. My '09 SG is all stock except for the 2" baffle Rush slip-ons that I set up yesterday. Sounds much better and runs fine. I'm done for a while. In this economy I can't see myself blowing the bucks on an air cleaner and Power Commander V (when available) to pick up an extra few HP. The bike is fast enough for road use. Right noiw I'm satisfied.

Sorry, but that is a big negative with the cat only on Cali bikes. Take off the right side slip-on muffler and look into the header. You will see it. I wish it wasn't so. By the MOCO doing this it cost me a extra $590 for a new header or more for tru-duals.
Take a look at the links I posted. It has pictures of the cat.

Tom, what is the best setup for a 09 SERG? I want loud and performance. Muffler has to be 4" to fill in the holes where the bag extensions come down.

Are you kidding me? I can't see how these bike's breath at all with that 'sponge" stuffed in the collector. I knew there was a cat in the collector but until seeing that link C17MSGT posted I had no idea it was as dense and long as it is. I just recieved a set of Bub 7 slip-on's and they'll go on for now but as soon as the new ThunderMax becomes available, I'll be standing in line for a set of tru-duals and these slip-on's get posted here in the classifieds....What's next, a stinkin' radiator
Happy Thanksgiving all........Putt
