Hello everyone,
I will be taking ownership of a 2012 Iron in a couple of weeks. First bike!

I am looking at options for a complete black exhaust and I dont want it to be real loud. Vance & Hines short shots are too loud.

What is out there that might fit this description?

Thanks,
Kate

 

I put on Rush slip on mufflers and switched out the heat shields for the HD black buckshot. Looks pretty good I think. The mufflers are definitely louder than the stock mufflers but not too insanely loud. I got the ones with a 2" baffle.

The Rush pipes are good...I am pretty sure they have 1.75" baffles for them that will get you louder than stock, but not too loud.

Cycle Shack also make em in black for the sporty...but they are pretty loud.

Another option is blacking out your stock pipes.

Keep the stock pipes, grandma

 

I have a set of rinehart black ceramic slip-ons i'm no longer using for sale if your interested. you can buy black pipes from harley to black out the whole system.i replaced them with a complete black ceramic rb racing lsr 2 into 1. however the rb is a waste if your motor is stock.

 

I ran the Vance & Hines Blackout 2-1 pipes on my past Iron. Loved them! Nice performance and deep sound.

 

Tear yours off & get them ceramic coated black...cheaper than replacement pipes, look you want + not loud...JMO.

 

I just picked up my 2012 Iron this week. I went with the SE Slip-ons and wrapped the pipes for now. Will probably go with 2 to 1 later on down the road. Sound isn't bad. Just retired my 81' Honda CX-500 so in comparison it is loud.
