Hello
New to the cvo world.but its my 5th harley.
I am looking for a little more sound out of my bike i live and ride in deer county.
I am looking at Rc components 4.5 rival slip on any feedback would be great..also looking at fullsac 2.25 baffles with cvo screens not sure what to go with

Welcome from Brussels , Belgium.

Sorry my bike is a 14 SERK black and orange bone stock

Don't get the moving sometimes, might want to repost your intro.

Now for your question. I have the fullsac 2 1/4 on my '13 SERK and love them. Not obnoxious but a good bark when you hit the go button. Can't speak for the RC's, maybe someone else will chirp-up.

Thanks for your input on the fullsac still undicided hope others give info on the RC slipons

I know the regular RCX mufflers have a 2.5" baffle which is too big for our bikes. You will lose low end torque. These bigger baffles are for large builds or for guys running cats in the headpipes. I'm pretty sure the 4.5 RCX's have the same or bigger baffles.

You can't go wrong with the Fullsac option, or with Rinehart 4" mufflers, which I run. The Rineharts also have a spiral core louvered 2.25" baffle like the Fullsac baffles.

Popular opinion is that a 2.0" baffle is the best for overall performance, but I, like you, prefer a bit more sound so I like the Rineharts.

[1911upstateny]

Does full sac install his baffles if i was to ship him my slip ons?

[North Star]

 I'm pretty sure, but best to give them a call. If you are somewhat handy, you just need to grind away some welds to get the inner cap off, then the baffle slides right out. There is a link to the Youtube instructional video somewhere around here.

You don't like Rineharts? Would be the same sound/performance as the Fullsac 2.25", plus they look better because you wouldn't have that pipe sticking out of the muffler look.There are some used ones for sale on the HD forum. Mine look even better since I added the PM contrast cut end caps. I even experimented with the Fullsac sleeves and baffle wrap, which I have the option of using for long trips if I feel like it to tone it down just a bit. They worked great.

I liked rhinehearts till i head my headed pipe spilt oprn on my 06SG and they said we will sell you a updated header pipe for another $350 which i thought was bs i already paid $1000 plus for the true duals and there slip on....and i kinda like to have something nobody around me has every other bike is v&h or rhinehearts thats why i wa looking at the RC slip ons but Fullsac is much cheaper way to go

RCX will run fine on a 110" with a good tune. I had them (RC 4.0 Gatlin)  with a Fullsac DX on my 2015 RG 103" with a map from Fullsac I downloaded, ran very well. Only reason I changed them was because I like  the look of a 2X1 on this bike.

[1911upstateny]

Thats good to know from what i read on here i wont need a retune till i change my headed out.iam only doing slip on right now i still need other things for the bike "trailer hitch "if anybody nows of acompany that makes one i had hitch doc on my SG....how did your RC sound nice n deep like the sales man at RC said there are?

[Ridgerunr]

The RC's sounded great IMO. Sound is different for each individual, but I liked the sound. Not too loud cruising, good bark when you get it on.

[North Star]

I've heard the 4" RCX and I agree they do sound great. They got lots of options for tips too.

Myself though, I'm sure I'd give up some tq with the 2.5" baffle, so I'll stick to Rineharts.

[1911upstateny]

I am still running stock headed pipe with the cat still in.plus when i had my sporty dyno with. S&S motor with 13/4 straight drags my local shop. Hillside cycle showed me a little truck with a bolt to get more back pressure for my tq i am sure i could put one throught the end cap if needed.my am not a hot rodder any more for the most part.once in awhile i get a wild hair and hit 110-plus but not often
