I have Rush slip ons and love them. Do an advance search on exhaust and sportsters and you will come up with lots of info.

my bike came with the rush slip-ons, and they're really good. but i'm going the way of shortshots next week for more sound/better looks(in my opinion).

I've got V/H shortshots and my wife has V/H slip-ons. We both have Nightsters and I like the sound of hers better. They look nice (if you're in to chrome) and they have a nice grumble to them.

v&h straightshots on my bike...
love them to death- when i first put the on i thought that they were too loud. i even bought sound dampers, but after riding them for a coupla weeks i realized that they were just perfect. on my wifes quiet bike, cages pull out all the time- on mine it has never happened. gotta be the pipes.
heres a pic- if its not big enough, click on it and it will get bigger:

Another vote for Rush. But I like V&H straight shots, too.

Depends on the look & sound she wants...definitely shop around & go listen to a few Sporty's at a dealer, or bike night. I also had Short Shots on my 05 XL1200C & SE slips. Both were good quality & not too pricy. Good luck w/the exhaust UG & let us know what you decide.

I have the Screamin' Eagle pipes on, but I know the short shots are very popular.
