If you want it louder, pull all the packing, run the can dry. Ride down your street wide open.
If the neighbors flip you off with both hands instead of the usual one, your going in the right direction!
If you don't like it, you can always put it back in. We are only talking about a 15 minute two beer sound test.

LOL!
Steve, that had to be one of the funniest replies by you...

[jr1000yarder]

it was packing from the stock cores jr . did you get your fender back yet? cant wait to see it.

Supposed to be Tuesday but well all know how painters are!!

I didn't wrap my cores and they sound good. Not tinny like my unwrapped Fat Cat

Have you considered buying cores from Rinehaet and putting them in your stock exhaust?  It's a great option for those who want to keep the look of the CVO pipes but want sound and performance of Rinehart.

Are you talking about these?

Looks like a little work to make them fit the stock cvo cans.

Steve,
Per a prev reply, Install Rinehart internals for performance...
Would you agree that Rinehart baffles are superior to Fullsacs?

If being louder and slower is superior, I quess they have me covered.

Steve, I'll stay away from the noise and I like the fact that its not annoyingly loud,
Keeping the Sleeper look and not compromising performance, I'm very happy with the sound.

Steve, Now on my fourth fullsac setup on my fourth bike, IMHO there is nothing better!!!

[2013SERG]

Steve, I have the sleeves with acting now, If I were to run the cores unwrapped will I lose power and back pressure?
Seems as it may affect performance with Any slight mods to the setup.

The sleeves keep the packing in place against the outer wall where it belongs. Wrapping the cores is not recommended for performance.

Steve, I admire your patience.  Read almost any article on this forum about Fullsac and it's clear that if you want a much improved sound (but not obnoxiously loud) and improved performance, then go with Fullsac.  If you want REALLY loud, look for something else. There are many choices out there. It seems that many of us (but not all) are getting away from the LOUD and going more towards..."nice deep rumble that shows up when you twist the throttle".(Fullsac).

I had D&D Fatcats 2 into 1 on my 09 SERG and performance was on par (maybe slightly better due to a cam install) with my current 13 CVO Ultra.  I was ok with the louder sound on the 09, but with this new bike I made a decision to not go so loud.  For me, Fullsac was the perfect solution in both sound and performance....and no one should ever question the quality of your products...1st class.

So last week, on the way home from AZ Bike Week, I stopped by Fullsac for the Stage 1 kit, installed by Steve.  2" baffle, sleeve, dx pipe, TTS and dyno.  Spent half the money I spent on the FatCats/dyno, etc and I absolutely love the sound and performance.  Probably sold you 2 more sets just be stopping into my local HD store last weekend.  Thanks.

Spell check is not working,
Steve, thanks for the response, If we as Core users want more noise, Removing the packing feom the Core is not going to affect performance I hope not Backpressure either.
Thanks.

The guys that have the Rinehart cores are using 2 inch, but I didn't see them othe link.

2.25 inch cores typically flow too much air and sacrifice back pressure/ torque

Glad your happy with my stuff Alan. It was a pleasure meeting you and working for you!

You guys that want it louder can pull all the packing and run the can dry. That's about as loud as it gets while still making good power.
If you still think its not loud enough, ride up next to a cop and rev it up real good a few times and see if you can get his opinion? If its works out,
you can staple your new sound certificate to your dyno chart. Nothing cooler than that. Lol..

I'm not a big Rinehart fan that's why I'm asking would much rather keep the fullsac's  for performance
I'll try taking the packing out my next weekend off
thanks

I always have to give the (I want it louder guys) a little jab, I hope you don't mind. Lol..   

I do appreciate your business!

Here's something that everyone needs to start considering, if you aren't already:  Noise pollution is being more and more regulated in communities across the country.  Yes, it is difficult to enforce, but it still happens.  There is a point at which any reasonable person becomes annoyed by obnoxiously loud exhaust levels, and when enough people become annoyed, local ordinances will be passed and fines will be levied.  And typically, whenever something like that has to be legislated, the results are generally more draconian than most riders would like.  So it is incumbent upon motorcycle owners/riders to self regulate and install exhaust systems that are not obnoxiously loud...most riders vary in how that is defined, but unless self regulation becomes more the norm, it will be regulated for you, like it or not.

It is one thing to have a Harley that has a nice "rumble" at idle and during acceleration, but it is an entirely different matter when exhaust noise causes car alarms to go off, interrupts conversation, causes people to literally have to put their fingers in their ears, or otherwise causes the average citizen to begin complaining about "bikers" who have loud exhausts.  Whether you or I agree with it or not, if the biker community does not begin to consider self regulation, it WILL be done for you, and there is about a 100% probability that you won't like the results.

I am not saying that brand X or brand Y is too loud, because it will not matter what I think, nor what you think...it will matter what those who are offended think, and ultimately what the local enforcement officials think.  This is not a political statement, or a statement about what is "right" or what is "wrong"...it is a statement about the reality of what is currently happening across many jurisdictions.

Just some food for thought...
