Check out the RC Exhaust, good warranty, very deep sound, looks sharp, very reasonable price. You may be pleasantly surprised. These are for those who like deep base notes, no raspy 'Rine sound...

I have the Wild Pig slipons and couldnt be happier. I originally had the 2" baffle and lost a lot of torque. Went to 1.75" baffles and torque returned.
I have also dealt with Fuel Moto and agree with the rest-great products and customer service.

I went with the 2" baffles. I'm going to keep things the way they are for now. Sometime in the next 6 months or so, I plan to get a more free flowing air cleaner, and a tuner. At that point, I will probably give a larger baffle a try.

But, I would recommend these pipes, and this company.
wait till you put afew miles on them and blow some of packing out.they light up right nice when your hitten it.

The right pipe will blue due to the heat of the CAT right in front of it. It's taking the brunt of the exhaust gasses and heat with the stock header. My Rinehart slip on when I still had the stock header (with CAT, and a 2:1 since it's a 2010) got pretty blue as well. I don't blame Rinehart, I blame the heat from the CAT. Since removing the CAT and making the AF ratio richer with a tuner, my new pipes are not bluing.

I also must put in a plug for the Jackpot series. There are three types: standard 3½", 4", and 4½" Pro-Touring (tapered). I have experience with the first two and can offer some opinions.

I've had the second-generation 3½" Jackpots on my bike for over a year with the optional Quiet Baffle (right-side only) installed, and before that the first-generation Jackpots. When I did my cam upgrade I found that the Jackpots with standard baffle were too loud for my taste--a change caused by the cams, not the mufflers--but the Quiet Baffle lowered the DBs enough to make a meaningful difference without noticeably reducing performance. Just recently I installed some 4" Jackpots and I like these even better. With the standard baffle they seem to be as quiet as the 3½" with the QB, and because this baffle is a straight-through design the bike runs a bit better.

All Jackpots use a "dyno-tuned" baffling system that FM guarantees to be the best-performing slip-ons available. I haven't seen or heard the 4½" Pro-Touring mufflers except in videos, but I understand they are louder than the other two.

I wanted to swap my stock 2011 Dyna Street Bob exhaust for one with a deep, mellow and respectible sound. My budget limited me to slip-ons because I also wanted to keep the stock air cleaner and EFI. I decided to go with the Vance and Hines 3" Twin Slash Round Slip-ons. However, with the standard baffles they are so loud it left my ears ringing all day after a 20 minute commute. With quiet baffles I got the sound I was looking for. A deep rumble that is not harsh and obnoxious yet under throttle produces a nice significantly loud bark. The bike also has more torque. I can actually cruise in 6th gear at 50 mph! This should be called the "One-Third stage upgrade"...

Just my 2 cents worth.
