Now, before you ask, those Fullsac's are wide open through the inside and the outside fits back into the surrounding fiberglass insulation of the muffler.  You can remove the fiberglass insulation, but if you do, the sound will be more tinny and lose some of the deep throatiness of the mufflers, and they would be a bit louder that way.  Suggestion is to leave the insulation in there.

So the way of the flow is straight through ?
I do not check it , sorry .

YES

Okay...Did the order for my 08SEUC3. Steve is very helpful and spent a little time to chit/chat. He's gonna fabricate me a fresh one and ship the 2.25 baffle to arrive on Friday. Awesome (Ikaikai in Hawaiian)...Not knowing what I don't know - it was very informative knowing Dyno numbers. A stock 96ci got 70hp and the 110ci got 80hp . . . not good considering the amount of coconuts spent on a CVO. The other tidbit is the louvers are from the same supplier as the HD Dyno venders (Was that okay to say???) anyways, alot more interesting stuff to come from Thunder Parts / Fullsac.

Aloha,

As much as I hate to do it, I found the best way to really appreciate your new Fullsac's is to let someone else get on a ride your bike away.  Then you get to hear what everyone else is hearing.  I also have the 2.25" and when the shop rode mine away for a test spin, I got pretty excited.  I told them that when they were done tuning it, and ready to take it for a test ride, I wanted to be outside to listen to the bike drive away.  Trust me, it will be music to your ears.

Okay, it's been a while for you fellas with the Fulsacs. Do you still like them or would you change to the new V&H Power duals? My sister lives in Arizona and is going to come visit me for the holidays, do I ask her to bring a set with her or not? I am willing to spend on the V& H set up but if the same sound or perfomance can be achieved with the Fulsacs I will go that way. I don't have to worry about the c/c because Canadian bikes don't have them installed anyway.

[1abastarsmda]

You can still get the V&H power duals and use the stock mufflers with Fullsac inserts.  The power duals only replace the exhaust pipes, not the mufflers.  Until otherwise proven by dyno results, at this time the power duals are pretty much the same as the stock system without the cat converter.  They have that fancy looking heat shield over the area where the converter is on our bikes, and school's still out on how that will look.  I'm not sure if I like the looks of it or not, and I'd like to see one in person before I am sure about that.  That area is supposed to be their power chamber, but again, until I see some dyno tests to prove it's any better than a convertless stock pipe, I'm holding back.  So, again to answer your actual question...the mufflers are not part of the Power Dual system and you still need to make a decision on the mufflers.  I already know that I am very happy with the Fullsac's, so that part of my bike is done.

So, what's next?

[1abastarsmda]

I think it's time to sample some suds and interview potential candidates for the back seat position on my bike.  That will determine communication device needs and luggage requirements.

I guess i should have asked the question differently. Would you change the Fulsacs for slip ons or are you happy with the the pipes the way you have changed them. I didn't need the explanaition to the header pipes but I would have changed the entire system if I changed the muffler section.

[Techie0212]

Depends on how much you want to invest in the bike. Because there are so many options, one doesn't fit everyone's ear. I would suggest talking with Fullsac owner - Steve George 928-505-2912 or steve@fullsac.com. He has a header true dual conversion set that is OEM compatible. He should send that out on the forum. BTW he really does have some interesting future products to offer in regards to getting better Dyno numbers....

Everyone has their own idea what looks/sounds good to THEIR ears. Check out what your buddies are running and make your decision based on what YOU like. Power differences will probably not vary more than 1-3 HP for most popular slip-ons. Me, I like the looks of the stock CVO mufflers and have these on 2 of my bikes, one is true dual and the other is an stock '09 header, 2-1-2. Both have the core conversions, one is 2", the other is 1 3/4". I like the looks and sounds on both bikes, and seat of the pants performance is fine, no spitting, popping, surging or anything other than smooth riding. I hope this helps you a little in your decisions.

I don't see the need to change the header pipes on a 2009. The 2 into 1 into 2 system works great. The true duals will kill power, not enhance it, especially true do to the Canadian bikes not having a c/c. If I went to the V&H system I would change to their 2 into 1 into 2 only to match the mufflers, the performance difference of thiers vs. H-D's would be minimal if anything. I guess you really answered my question anyway, The question I asked is; Now that you have had some time with ther Fullsac cores do you still like them or are you conteplating a change? I think you answered that you still like them.

LOL..........yep! No complaints!

Need a little help. I have seen Jim Kerr's video comparing the 1.75 with/without CC, but I can't find the site for the comparison of the 1.75 and the 2.0 baffles. Anyone know where it is? Thanks
