Cat removal Exhaust change ???
Just got my new Street Glide and already am hearing that I should remove the Cat and install aftermarket exhaust.
Frankly, after one 150 mile ride last weekend I found the bike had all the power I was looking for and that the stock exhaust note was ok by me, not too loud or too quiet
That said, should I have the Cat removed? and if so, is there aftermarket exhaust that would not be too much louder than stock?
opinions please?

After 4,200 miles and before Winter gets here I just ordered the FL-ViED-10 from Nightrider to add fuel and a Jackpot 2/1/2 SPC head pipe from Fuel Moto to get rid of the Cat. I like the power and sound of my bike and don't want to change it by much right now so this is the (best) least expensive solution for me. This will keep the stock mufflers and stock air cleaner. I'll start a new thread when the parts get here and I get them installed. I'm just going to do a seat of my pants performance review, no dyno tune. I forsee less heat and a bit more performance, only down side is more exhaust fumes without the Cat.

My main reason for doing this is to get rid of the heat on the right side of the bike.

For heat issue I would switch to synthetic fluids at 500mi service. The the first thing I did was switch to Amsoil synthetic throughout and the heat reduction was significant. I'm sure any of the major brands will have a similar effect. The next step IMO is add a tuner. See how you like it then go from there. JMO
