Jason those mufflers sound nice. Are you losing bottom end with them?Looks like they  have big baffles.

There's an off-idle stumble that's present and I get some decel popping every once in a while but other than that I don't think I've lost too much in terms of torque or HP.

i can always build power elsewhere and if it was all performance i was after.........i wouldn't have gotten a bagger!  that's what choppers and night trains are for..

  There you have it, an intelligent thread>>>>>If your looking for sound....clothes pins and playing cards on your spokes?  What do you do it you have mags?

I have been fairly happy with my 2" Fulsac baffles. I'm now down in Daytona for bike week and after reading this thread I thought I would go listen for myself. At Destination Daytona Harley the ha Rhinehart and Vance&Hines only a row apart. I felt the high outputs were much deeper. They just happened to have a set ready to install, imagine that! We put 250 miles on them yesterday and love them. Heading out today for a 700 mile trip to Boca, Fort Myers, Sarasota and then back to Daytona.

Mark, After 700 miles what do you think of the V&H HI Output? How loud are they, and one you back off the throttle do they have that raspy sound? I have narrowed it down to either these or the 4" Rhineharts. I'm looking for something with a deep tone and can still be heard. Loud does not bother me, I know either one are not as loud as what i have now.

I have CFR's on my 2010 SESG and love them.  Not saying they're the best, just saying I am very happy with them.

What else are you running?

I have CFR's on my 2011 SESG, too. I have the V&H Dresser Duals and an SE tuner. It was all put on late last season, and this set up might be just a bit too loud for me. Trying to explore any options. Like the CFR's and don't really want to go through with the hassle of changing the head pipe. Thinking about trying a head pipe install of a Big City Thunder Baffle for about $85 to start. If that doesn't work, thinking about changing to to V&H High Outputs.

Anyone have any ideas?

Neither system has the deep bass rumble of a Hooker or Bassani system. Exhaust systems are like women. You're not likely to get everything you want in one package. You have to decide what matters most and go with it.

Schmoopers Rinehart 2-1 was a deep rumbler on a 88 cuber it was barky, good perfomer too. 

[MC88]

Thanks for all your opinions guys ...

I went with the High Outputs, I heard a set on a 103 EG at the dealer and hedid me a good deal ....  Ended up throwing  the Race Tuner in  the deal with the pipes and four point detachable point .

All I need is the Bike now , hopefully within the next wek or so .

Big City Thunder Baffle's are loud, I am running them in V&H Big Shot Duals at idle  109 db compaired to 80db for stock Harley.

They're loud, but would they be better than nothing? (Which is what I currently have.)

  I run Rinehart 2010/11 True Dual system with the 4" mufflers.  I love the sound of my Rineharts, but after listening to those CFR's,  I have to tell you that those have the best sound for Harley hands down!  CHit, I may have to look at those as a second set of pipes?  For those that have the CFR's, someone mentioned tuning was a problem?  I have Thundermax TBW system, I would assume that the system would make any necessary adjustments withing a 15% range.  I plan on having my bike fine tuned on the Dyno this spring anyway and have some adjustments made in effort to get the most from the tuner and bike.  Please let me know?  Meanwhile, i think i may have to do a little research.

Yes, If you are running straight pipes you are losing TQ & HP, BCT has two types of baffels, Thunder Monster which i ran on my Low Rider with Big Radius Pipes, and they have a Thunder Monster QQ which is what i am running now with the Big Shots.

Over 3,000 miles on V&H HO's with HD '09 catless headers.  Deep sound, great performance (after tune with HD SE tuner).  Receive compliments on the great sound all the time.  No popping on decel and mellows out at cruise.  No problem hearing stereo.  Very satisfied and would never consider a change.  Have heard RH on a few CVO's and not nearly as deep or throaty on accel or cruise.

I originally went with 09 head pipe and 2.0 fullsac baffles with tts tuner. Sounded good. But not quite what I was looking for. Changed to v&h h o's and it is perfect. Nice deep sound and still good for listening to stereo. I ended up with 94 hp & 114 tq. Runs great.
