I just bought a left over 2006 Road King FLHRI and want to get some nice sounding mufflers. I’m thinking of going with the Max 2 mufflers that B&E (bobvic2 on Ebay) sells. I like to look of the stock muffler but just want better sound. bobvic2 states on his Ebay add that “With these two (Max 1 and Max 2) mufflers you won’t have to recalibrate fuel or air mixtures with carb or fuel injected models”. So I don’t plan on doing anything else to the bike. Are any of you guys running the Max 2 mufflers? Did you do anything else? Was there a need to get a PCIII or anything else to get your bike to run right with these mufflers? How’s the sound? Any comments would be appreciated. Thanks

 

I run the B&E superflows. I sold my V&H Ovals for them and am glad I did it. Sound much better IMO.

I would get the Superflows over the Max 1 or 2. The Superflows give an awesome deep rumble at idle and will bark loud if you rev the bike hard.

Do a search in the forum for Superflows and read others posting.

I would also recommend getting a PCIII with them. the stock '06's run lean as they are. I am running a map for Rush mufflers and it seems to be fine, until I get it dynoed.

Those must be majic mufflers, cause after owning many sets of pipes, nothing beats vance and hines ovals. LOL

 

No, You do not have to change anything. As stated above the 06's run hot & anything extra you do will help, but bottom line you do NOT have to add anything, I am in the same boat, All I can afford at this time is the Superflows, I put them on & the bike runs strong & they sound great. Bobvic is a good guy to deal with too.

 

Look at www.rollingthunderpipes.com

I have these for over 13,000 miles now. Budget priced, sound good and quality chrome.

I think you almost have to get a free breathing air cleaner, SE or equivilent. It's an easy install and helps the bike breath, run, sound better. I have a stage I download, but would recommend a V&H FuelPak or Power Commander III instead. My understanding is if you change mufflers, you change the backpressure, and therefore, you should change the fuel/air ratio for proper performance.

Don't all the 06's have catalytic converters? If so, there will be a BIG change when thats gone, and the re-tune is definitely needed.

 

BUT, have you run the Superflows or Max 1/2 mufflers? LOL

 

I have owned the supper flows for 1500 miles & own a 2006 RK Custom, the sound gets better after 500-800 miles.Had some backfire after install .Got the PCIII & it took care of BFire with too much fuel at lower RPM.Took off PCIII & installed new clamps on Supper Flows & no more Bfire.Clamps are one use only.Hooked up PCIII & installed a map for a 2006 with stock exhaust & ECM & stage I A/C,bike runs great.Sounds like it should.Get the slach cut for stock looks.Best $4$ I've spent.

 

I have them on my 05 Ultra. Did nothing else to the bike but the Max IIs. Sounds good and runs better than stock.

I had a set of the b&e superflows with 1.75 baffles and thought they were the worst tinniest sounding mufflers I had ever heard. If you don't want to spend much cash and have nice base sound wild pigs are tough to beat. V&H ovals are another good one that won't blue and won't deafen you either.
