2015 Low Rider
Hey guys,
Going to be looking at trading into an amber whiskey 2015 Low Rider this weekend. It will be my first big twin, I have only owned 2 Sportsters. I tend to like to ride a bit aggressively but nothing too crazy. How will the FXDL compare to the Sportster in that respect? And how is the stock suspension? Hate having to buy a bike and immediately upgrade the suspension. I am going to try and test ride it before I buy it but I am thinking I will be riding home on it.
Also, does anyone have any input as to a good slip on? It has the 2-in-1 system so I would only need the 1 slip on, but this is uncharted territory for me. Not too loud, but enough so people can hear me.

You will likely get to a tuner and a stage 1, and a good exhaust is the right place to start...

Not so on a full system, I sent my header off on an exchange to a shop in Daytona area. They cut the cats out and give u headers back. With core exchange it is like $75 including shipping. Then I installed the V&H slip on muffler from Fuel Moto for $250 and was done. Saved a couple hundred bucks.

I have a 2014 Low Rider and I have just had the V&H Slip-on (Part Number 16801) fitted along with a Heavy Breather air intake and PV2. I haven't bothered with the cats yet but now it sounds like a Harley should without being too loud and will stay that way for a while yet.
The exhaust is very much a personal choice and depends on how loud you want it. I had V&H Shortshots on my Sportster Iron and they were too loud so this gives me what I want.
Regarding swapping from Sporty to Dyna. It takes a while but merely a confidence thing. I was concerned when I first bought mine about lean angles, etc. but having kept pace with a metric Yamaha FZ6N through the windy roads of Wales during the summer I think it fair to say it exceeds the Sporty in all areas.
