Default Loudest Slip-ons?

I want 'em loud! This is a Harley! Anybody have experience with LOUD slip-ons? Without removing baffles and other mods?

Loud is subjective...Short shots is loud but I heard it is difficult to tune. I have 3" Rush with 2.25" baffles and it is loud with a deep tone. I also used the older SEIIs and those have a good sound too. I am always near other bikes and mine is louder than most....except the short shots and perhaps the 2 in 1's

Full exhaust is typically loudest.

I have a '15 xl883n that I put Python slip-ons on and I'll tell you its loud! Totally changed my bike from the sewing machine it was to give it that loud harley rumble. I downloaded a DB meter on my phone (who knows the accuracy but whatever) and at the tip of the exhaust it registers at 117 db.

Rinehart slip ons are too loud in my opinion but for being that loud the tone is fantastic

I have some V&H short shots on a Low, and they have enough volume, but not that deep rumble I'm looking for.

You want the deep rumble, along with great performance, this is the way to go.







They will sound good, be loud, and out perform any slip-on you can purchase.

I hear you but -- no offense -- I'd like to hear from people without a vested interest.

Just trying to help you out.

Listen to the videos...the first one is not made by us...my vested interest of $3 profit does not change how it sounds.

A search on youtube of hundreds of others that have done the same is not influenced by my vested interest.

Check out the dyno charts...the dynamometer does not care about DK Custom.

Reading our posts, you will find we recommend what is best regardless of if we sell it.

I have had vh short shots and rush 1.75 slip ons. I personally like the rush slipons with dk inserts and 1.75 baffles the best.
