Obviously a Dyno run is the best way to support the performance claim. In the Latus HD Harley forum, which does cost to post on but has excellent info, Mike has been real impressed with the performance of the Monster Ovals. You can check out the sections for free and see what he says in the exhaust threads. Price stopped me from getting the Monster Ovals. If I am going to shell out $600 (roughly the best discounted price), I am more inclined to go with a full system, such as Fat Cats.

 

+1 on the dyno tuned jackpots...they look good too !!
no blueing or yellowing yet

 

I never said the MO's didn't perform well, but I wonder if Mike has tested the Jackpots, as most dealers have never heard of them. After all, they are fairly new and have been on the market only six or eight months--and Jamie has done minimal if any advertising on them. The Dyno-Tuned Jackpots with the proper tune out-perform any other slip-on I've seen, and Fuel Moto guarantees they will do so. Keep in mind that Fuel Moto sells most brands of mufflers, EFI controllers, etc. and has dyno-tuned bikes equipped with all of them. The Jackpots are Jamie's creation from start to finish, and he has meticulously dyno-tuned them himself.

Go to the FM site and check out the dyno runs. If you find a slip-on that performs better, all other factors being equal, let me know. I'm not being pompous, as there may be a better muffler out there--and if there is one I'd like to be aware of it. In reality, proof of superiority would only come with mufflers compared on the same bike, same dyno, and under the same conditions--which is an unlikely scenario. Thus, comparing mufflers accurately may be otherwise impossible. OTOH, Jamie may have this proof in the dyno runs he's done.

 

I also looked at the MOs, granted they are as sharp as they come and I have spent alot of money on bikes but these are a little bit RICH for my blood right now, maybe they will come down when the newness wears off ! ! ! ! "I HOPE"

 

I doubt that Mike has tested the Jackpots, but he does like the Rush 2" baffle slip-ons, so he probably would like the Jackpots. I have seen the Dyno charts that Jamie has and they are good.

 

Thanks, I just listened to the video. They aren't any where as near as loud as I expected. Funny, in first gear you hear the gear whine from the tranny over the pipes. Didn't expect that. I may have to look at the Jackpot package from FM.

 

Get the Jackpots, the Monster Ovals look like take-offs from a GoldWing.

 

Go with the Jackpots. I love mine and you can't beat the service and data that backs up the FM package.

Jamie and crew have done all the work and collected all the data that proves the performance. Sound, I personally really like them. I can hear the radio no problem at 2500-3000. Nice sound pulling away from a light, rumble when twisting the wrist. Mellow in the cruise range.

 

Jackpots. Just look at the price! And compare the service!

Fuelmoto DOES have great customer care.

 

One more recommendation for the V&H Monster Ovals here. Best deep sounding exhaust I've heard without being obnoxiously loud. V&H quality is second to none in my book.
