Default Stage 1 Upgrade for 2011 Road King

OK folks, time to do the Stage 1 upgrade and looking for some inputs.

Going with the Fuel Moto SE Stage 1 air cleaner and the PCV.

So my question is what exhaust. Right now I am leaning heavily toward the Vance and Hines Dresser Duals (still trying to decide on the muffler) or going with the Rinehart true dual setup with the 3.5 inch mufflers. I want black, ceramic and a true dual system for the sound. And yes I know I will loose a little low end torque but I can live with that if I have that sweet Harley music coming out of the exhaust.

I will be talking to Jamie but I wanted to get some initial input here.

I recently received the Fuel Moto Stage One with Power Vision (pre-mapped), Fuel Moto Air Intake, Ceramic Coated Head Pipes and 4.5 inch Jackpot Pro mufflers.

Been very busy lately and hope to get the Stage One installed in the next week or so.

Spoke to Jamie and Keith prior and went with their recommendations for my 2011 RKC.

Objective(s): Looking for the Stage One to 'cool down' the 103, open up the breathing and exhaust better and wanting a muffler sound that did not have that highway loud drone that rattles your brain.

I'll post a review and my honest opinion once the Stage One is completed.

It makes a big difference on the 103 motors, which tend to run pretty hot in stock trim. Once you put it on the bike, you'll be kicking yourself for waiting as longs as you did.

I ordered the Stage One back on May 30th... Fuel Moto did their best to get it to me but they too were waiting for their sub-contractor to do the ceramic coating on the head pipes.

Only received the Stage One about ten days ago!

Otherwise, the Stage One would have been installed back in June!
