Default Mods to 2010 Street Glide

Searched and searched for what I think is the right exhaust system for me. I knew that cat. converter had to go. I wanted to stay with the single pipe like the 2010 models are designed. So after hearing several sound clips and having heard positive info on this forum, I went with the new V & H Pro Pipe. Man, what a pipe. They rock! Now, I like a pipe that you can ride loud or you can ride 'em quiet. You can't really ride these quiet, but you can keep 'em down to a dull roar.

Also did a Stage 1, race tuner and had it dynoed. The dyno numbers came out 72 H.P. and 85 ft. lb. torque at the rear wheel. I don't really know how that stacks up to others, but I think it's about a 20% improvement over stock. Anyway, I like the way sounds and the added horses.

congrats on the new exhaust. where are you finding sound clips at? i just picked up a 2010 road glide and will be shopping for an exhaust soon. i want something quiet at idle, but sounds wicked when you get on it. any suggestions? what other 2 into 1 pipes did you look at?

D & D has the Fatcat. That's the only other 2-1 I checked into. Really, the Pro Pipe at idle is not all that loud. Louder than stock of course. But when you roll that throttle, "wicked" is a good way to describe it.

You can hear sound clips by going to you tube and doing a search for "Road Glide exhaust sound bytes" and I think you will find several.

Congrats on your new bike and good luck in your search for the new exhaust system.

Awesome looking pipe, well done, nice dyno numbers. Should be a nice improvement over stock.
