Love the bike...
IMO...and feel free to call me crazy...does anyone else think the stock exhaust with just slip-ons or no slip ons, fits the Street Bob better than an after market exhaust? I guess it depends on what vibe your going for, but in my case (2009 vivid black, V&H HS slip ons) the previous owner did subtle changes in a sort of old school theme (like changing tank emblems to 61'-62' ones) which is giving me pause at throwing on the pipes I wanted to originally.
I thought once I got the bike the slip ons would be the first to go, but my original choices for exhaust; Vance side shots, Bub sidecutters or Bassani Pro Streets are starting to look a bit too radical for old school look that has been started on my bike. I'm a HUGE aftermarket exhaust guy too so it feels odd for me to say I think I like the stock shape/look exhaust on the Street Bobs best.

Congrats!
Congrats on the new ride, nice looking bike! Hope you enjoy it and have a safe riding experience. Welcome to the forum, have only been here a little over a year myself but lots of great info from a lot of riders with tons of knowledge! If you ever have a question, just ask, the only dumb questions are those that aren't asked in my opinion.
Stay safe and have a great time!
Bo
