Got the 103 w/ Fat Cat dynoed today
Got my '07 Streetglide dynoed today. I had been running V&H Big Shot Duals (true duals). I had a different tuner do the V&H 3 years ago so the results need to be taken with a grain of salt. I use a SERT. I gained nearly 10 H.P. and 3 ft. lbs. of torque on paper. The torque is great over 100 ft.lbs. from 2600 to about 4000 r.p.m. It's an improvement over the duals but not tremendous on the torque scale. It feels really responsive though. A lot better than before. I love the look. It's a black ceramic pipe on a blacked out bike. The sound is really different than what I'm used to, but I love the way it backs off when shifting gears. My bike is a bit quieter now too. I think it has the standard baffle. I'm not sure since I bought it off the wall at a a dealership without all the instructions, the box it came in, and missing the spacers for the muffler stand offs. I called D&D and they sent me some spacers for free and quick too. I sold the duals to a brother, so there's no going back.

"screw duals" suck. 2-1 rock!
i got a fat-cat and sert too! But stock 96'' and never had it dynoed (bought the bike that way). I'm guessing HP any where from 68-75(doesn't go much faster than 110 or so) and TQ from 78-88(seems to get to 0-60 pretty quick) IDK

Nice gain on the HP. I wonder why you only gained 3 ft lbs or torque. My experience has been more gains on the torque than the horsepower. As long as you are happy, that is all that matters. Post a pic of the baffle and we'll tell which one it is. I am sure the response is completely different as that was my experience as well with my fatcat, but I gained twice as much torque as I did HP. Might have to do with the drag pipes I was running prior to the fatcat.

I really like the fact that the Fat Cat is quite a bit quieter than the Big Shot Duals were. It isn't much louder than stock at an idle, and is quiet until 2500 r's then it starts to cackle. I love the way it backs off when you let off the throttle. I'd post a pic but my kid borrowed my digital camera. The baffle is the cheese grater type, but I can't tell if it's wrapped. I'm going on a 4000 mile trip from Colorado to Tahoe, northern Cal. and up the coast thru Oregon and Washington week after next so I'll see if it gets louder.
