That's a pretty big baffle. Statistically there is often a "dip" in the lower end torque with monsters like that, but if performance isn't your number 1 priority, you may be fine with it. I cannot say however I have personally ridden a bike with them.

I bought the Cobra 909 Twins 4" Slip on's to go on my 110 cu in Screaming Eagle. They have a sweet low rumble and quiet down on the cruise. When you lean on them they will make some noise. I seem to have a little better performance over the stock CVO factory mufflers, but that is by the seat of my pants feel, so it might be BS. I already have a V&H X-pipe on the bike, so I hope the 909's are going to be compatible. I wonder what the performance cost / benefits might be. Ill probably never have this bike on a dyno. I know this is a little known brand of mufflers, at least to me. There seems to be 3 major players, and Cobra isn't one of them. I added a link to them so if anyone wanted to check them out and give me the low down.   I am looking forward to your feed back.

I definitely like the sound and looks of them. Sorry, didn't mean to imply you would automatically suffer this dramatic power loss. My experience with the Vance & Hines High Outputs (also a large baffle) was a noticeable hit on the low end. Seemed to not want to wake up until about 3000rpm.
