Default Happy with stock performance?

I seem to be the only person alive that is happy with the new bikes' stock hp/tq, mileage, etc. The only thing about the stock motorI didn't care for was the sound.That was addressed with 1.75" Rush slip-ons.Am I crazy or what?Please tell meIm not the only one.

I loved the stock performance --- until I put SuperTrapps and Stage 1 on her.

Me too...I'm happy with the performance but I don't like the sound of the stock pipes. I'm thinking about putting SE slipons on. I don't want loud. I just don't like the pung pung pung ... sound the stock pipes make. However that being said I really didn't like the sound of the Rineharts. Too loud.

I'm with you. Stock with SE 64926-99 slip ons. Perfect sound for me.

Completely stock here. I haven't changed a thing. May just put some slip-ons later but I am very satisfied right now.

Stock here too, engine wise anyway. Different handlebars, braided cables, etc. Same pipes, 04 ultra.

I,too was happy with the stock bike, but you like me will be drawn toward the dark side, don't fight it, it's hopeless

FX4 the Rush 1.75's are not as loud as rineharts and not as quiet as the streetperformance SE's. Very deep.
