I liked it for about the first 50 miles since my Fat Bob was a screamer it was a nice change of pace but I just hit 500 miles and the stockers have got to go. My truck is louder at WOT.
I might be part of a really small percentage here but I like the sound of my stock exhaust. I don't have any problem with people who want to change it but in my opinion Harley spent a lot of time making it sound the way it does and I am ok with that. No plans to upgrade anytime soon. Just the right volume as to be heard but not so loud I want to wear ear plugs when I ride it.
And NO, it's not becuase I am too cheap to buy upgraded pipes.
I've been very happy with mine. And I've always liked the look of the stock mufflers too. I do have a couple of buddies with Vance and Hines that sound really good though. I just don't think its $500 better.

100% agree. I like the stock sound. It's just right, actually louder than my 2011 Wide Glide with stock. I won't be changing mine either. Glad you made this post. I was starting to think I was the only one!
Its the stock exhaust support group thread. I like the way they look on the SG too.
Stock mufflers are OK. It's the header pipe I want to change, mufflers are about right
with a de catted head pipe. My Sons 2012 Road Glide Ultra has a de catted pipe, and
I can hear it when he rides up to my house. They are just loud enough to hear, plus we
all want to hear the radio.
I'm surprised by the guys that think it has a rumble? I honestly don't hear anything that resembles a rumble. I still have stock on mine and it was nice for awhile. My fatboy lo had a stage II w/ V&H big radius. I can say those got old after 50 miles. I would like something in between. I will probably go with RCX when I can save up my "allowance" for them. I also blame the fact that I speed so much because it doesn't feel or sound like I'm going as fast.
