SE Touring Mufflers

RE: SE Touring Mufflers
I have the SE pro's on my electra glide,dealer installed and will pass state inspection noise level in NH. My dealer will discontinue installing them on 4/30
then sell until stock is depleated,he also said that the MOCO has projected complete depleation of these pipes by aug. you will still be able to buy replacement baffles but not the muffler it's self. And that they (the dealer) will just start installing different brand mufflers that will pass NH noise level.
I've yet to hear mine other than at idle,juicing the throttle a few times,and they dont sound that loud to me,dealer says rineharts are louder muffler,but will pass state inspection in NH @2800 rpm level

Well, ordered from Zanotti's - seemed like the best on-line pricing. Thanks for the e-bay lead - however, was up to $180 for the used e-bay pipes and still had not met the reserve (i.e. those folks are thinking their used pipes are worth more than I was willing to pay for used pipes) - got the brand new pipes for $280.
Any case, as far as the tuner: After days of reading about the SERT versus the PCIII, went with the SERT (just hope I can get it loaded and close enough so that I can take my time getting dyno'd). Three reasons for going with the SERT: 1. Read some articles where folks had their PC fail - then you're sort of stuck, because if you disconnect it you will be running very lean and could casue problems, and 2. SERT is a Harley product and would hope that I don't have warranty issues (even though a lot of dealers install the PCIII. 3. Read a couple posts that folks with the PC were experiencing "hard starting - taking a few more cranks than normal to turn over.
Went with the:
29773-02B SE Air Cleaner
65259-00 SE Touring Mufflers
65066-01 End Caps
32107-01E SERT
All for less than $900 from Zanotti's
Thanks for all your help, Bruce

RE: SE Touring Mufflers
Just an FYI guys.... The SE Pro Performer pipes will NO LONGER BE AVAILABLE after May 31st. Harley is not going to be selling any exhaust labeled as race use only... Welcome to the dark ages and get ready to start wrenching on your own scoot if you want performance. Might not seem like a big deal to some but it's huge.
I wonder how all these changes will affect dyno tuning at HD dealers.

RE: SE Touring Mufflers
2005 Ultra, I just put my se slipons on the bike. I have the bike to be dynoed on the 27th of Feb. At a harley dealer. For about $300.00. They will install the se air cleaner. Install the sert. I was going to take it to a independent shop. But this guy dynos 2 bikes a day for the last year. So he has done quite a few. I was nervous about getting this done. But now I feel much better. He is supossed to be good. I had to wait 2 weeks for a appointment. Bob.

RE: SE Touring Mufflers
Hi....I'm new to this forum.Just a question on these SE pipes.I've got a 05 Roadglide and I'm going to do the SE air filter,download and was going with the SE slip-on performance pipes. Are they going to be illegal soon? Why are the dealers going to stop selling them? Maybe I should go with the touring mufflers? Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks Greg

RE: SE Touring Mufflers
See if anybody can answer this. I've been trying to find this out every since I bought my bike last year. When I bought it, I had the SE air cleaner, download, and SE slip ons installed. The SE mufflers I got are the one piece without the end caps. I don't know the part numbers. Does anybody know which are louder? The SE one piece like I have, or the SE pipes with the end caps? I love the way my pipes sound, but I wish they were a little louder.

RE: SE Touring Mufflers
What is the difference between the loudness of the partnumber: 65539-95 verses partnumber: 65538-95A??? I have been told that the later number (95A) is a race muffler? Is any one running the race muffler and how loud is it? And is it less restrictive as race implies?
