Default EVO Bagger Performance… what a joke

I resisted the whole gezzerglyde thing my entire life. Now to make the wife happy I’ve added my Road King. This particular forum seems predominantly infatuated with baggers and Bagger performance. It’s been an influence on my thinking.

I innocently have sat on the sidelines, listening to all the different threads and all the guys talking about making big numbers and all this flashy talk about baggers and performance. The small measure of humility that I have made me think I must not know what I’m doing and you must be able to make a lot of power out of baggers. So now I’ve built a 113 and I’ve installed it in my road king. Only to find out there is extremely limited performance true dual exhaust system in existence.

With all the bagger performance talk I assumed the industry had lots of solutions…

My guess is 120hp / 120 torque. Way too much for a 1 3/4 inch pipe that’s longer than 36 inches.

Bassani, Reinhardt and V&H all made at one time or another true step tuned exhaust pipes.

Anyone know if any of their proprietary 2 inch inlet muffler/tail pipes had removable baffles?
Anyone have a used chrome set in good condition?

Anyone have advice for exhaust for a motor this size in a Road King? (98 flhrci)

I'd call the dude on youtube at Tatro Machine in CA.
Stuff is still available, but a lot a times you gotta actually call folks.
Drag specialty and Eastern Performance have stuff that will fit but I don't know the diameter's on it or if stepped stuff is still available new... you could call them, but you may not need what you think...
Dude at Tatro has already been through it and will know what you need and who knows he might have something trick used in stock. san diego, ca 6192330484

Thanks. I did find a used set of Reinhardt step tuned pipes in good condition. I’m not running mufflers so I took 2.25” pipes and cut the 1 3/4 bells off, cut slots and bought 2.25 muffler clamps. At the end I bought 2.25” tips and will run the large TTI’s and see what that does. If I decide I need baffles I have some 8” long baffles made for 2.25 pipes I can insert.
