"The international models aren't so easy te drill. Today i opened my 2014 CVO limited mufflers the Fulsac way. I used a piece of solid steel to tap uit the muffler. This is what came out.
I'm planning to drill some holes or to cut the tube"



Are these the ones that came off your 2015?  They guts look like the older style OE SE muffler.  Will be intersting to see how you like the results of your mods when these are back on the bike.

Thuis are the ones from My 2014. It's not the domestic model but the HDI international one. Fuullsac isn't shipping to Europe planning to make a core from a V&H core. Dealer has a lot of non used cores

Done this a number of times, sounds great. A chop saw and a wire welder make the job simple

Those are the same as the earlier CVO cores. Not much you can do that will make then sound good, I tried.

We ship to Europe all the time. Just an FYI.

I know I am resurrecting a long dead topic but I have a question. I have a set of 2014 CVO mufflers on my 2000 bagger. Of course no cat. The bike runs good with these mufflers but it is very quiet. I love the way they look.

Did everyone that knocked the plugs out of the CVO mufflers leave the cat intact? I am looking for a small increase in volume and a deeper sound. I am willing to knock the plugs out but would I get that sound without a cat? How much does the cat affect the volume? Would the lack of a cat make it sound like a lawn tractor with a bad muffler?  Is there any chance that anyone has a sound clip of their bike running unplugged CVOs preferably without a cat?

Thanks

Dang Dan, it has been a while on this one.  If you read my original post, I actually did de-plug the mufflers with the cat still in tact and was very pleased with the results.  Just a bit louder at idle and cruising speed but really sounded good getting on it.  I did eventually go de-cat header with a SERT for a bit more power, better fuel flow and to lose the popping on deceleration that was very evident removing the catalyst.  Sorry to say I don't have a sound bite to post for stock verses de-plugged.

Haird, since you took the cat off later did removing the cat change the sound of the already unplugged mufflers?

Yes sir, it did.  Not bad, just deeper and a bit louder and I was satisfied with the cruising and idle db level.  If you just de-plug and nothing else, it's not necessary to tune the bike. However, if you go further with the no-catalyst in the head pipe method, it is a necessity to tune.

Also, since you are new to the forum, please take a minute and introduce yourself to the rest of the gang in the "new member" board.  Here's the link and welcome to the site:

Well I wish I would have seen this prior to taking a hole saw and drilling out the "crimp" on the end of that baffle - I had to buy a hole saw and extension but I already had a Dremel!

Now the question of the day - would I see any benefit (additional sound) by going a head and removing the balance of the tube?

Ive done it both ways, IMHO the drill is faster ,leaves a perfect hole the same size as the plug and sounds just as good

New to this forum,  Just dropped the hammer on a new 2016 SESG. First mod ordered was 14"x 1 1/2" sweeping beaters from BR bars(patiently wating) cant stand the stock bars !! So it will be a minute till I come up with scatch for a fullsac set up !! Come on work with some OT !!  Attempted this mod earlier tonight but my dremel crapped out. So now I'm sitting here waitin for the sun to come up so I can buy a new one and get it done.

Has anyone looked inside the 2017 Milwaukee 8 SE Mufflers yet? I wonder if this mod would work?
