I have had my 08 CUSE for a few weeks now. I had the V&H Big Shot duals and the SE backplate for the A/C put on before I rode it home . I really like the look of the pipes, but they are a bit louder than than I like. I think V&H make some quieter baffles that I may try. Probably the easiest and cheapest way to improve performance, looks, and sound is to change the exhaust and the backplate on the A/C. The faster you can move air through the engine, the better.
If you change the exhaust and A/C, you will need to have the ECM remapped. These changes will improve the performance, most likely improve gas mileage and cause the engine to run cooler.
