Hello from the Dayton, Ohio area. My first post on this forum and I gotta tell you up front, I have never ridden a motorcycle. I have, however, put 45,000 miles on my old Trike which was built in January, 2004. I am retired, and I love riding, the people I have met and the adventures. Three days ago, I bought an '07 SE Ultra which the Dealer is going to ride for a hundred miles or so, then we are going to put true dual header pipes on it, a SERT and a better air filter. After that, we will dyno the bike and convert it to a Lehman Trike. My question I am looking for help on is this . . can we use the SE touring mufflers that come stock on the bike? I like the sound of them, but I don't know if they are physically the same (crossover pipe, etc). I am not interested in getting the absolute last inch/ounce of torque out of the 110" motor - I am interested in reliability and heat management as well. I would appreciate any words of advice or suggestions that you folks have. I am not an experienced wrench by any means, and hope to learn from others who have had experience. The bike is the orange and black color one, and it is one beautiful bike. Hope the Trike does not disqualify me from being on the forum but let me know if it bothers anyone.
Ride Safe.
Walt
