Running stock mufflers on my 2014 tri glide and sounds good to me.
Debating on getting the Screaming Eagle Exhaust installed but have had a few people report that they lost some fuel mileage when they installed different/louder mufflers.
Any validity to these claims? Especially with the Screaming Eagles!
Thanks

Yes, with the more open mufflers there is more reversion, which will result in more fuel burning to get the same power.
Using a set of Thunder Torque Inserts will resolve that issue.

Are these just replacing slip ons with no other mods like stage one ? Especially with street cannons?
I am pulling my Fullsac headpipe and 11' CVO cans w/ 2" Fullsac cores...between two motors they have about 45000 miles on them...replacing w/ V&H headpipe and stock 16' CVO slipons w/ solid black endcaps...

S&S 4" Slash Down Race/Tour Slip ons ~ A little deeper and just a tad louder - But free flowing.
Running stock mufflers with V&H 2-1-2 header pipe. It has NO catalytic in it so the stock mufflers sound very good. My wife complained of the noise the V&H mufflers had I did nothing to the stock mufflers.

Bassani 4" Megaphone with 2.5" baffles. Sound really good and look good too. I also have Fuel Moto ceramic coated header. A little loud when you get on it, but nice when cruising. No problem hearing the radio with ear plugs in at 75-80mph on the super slab.

i have a 2018 TG with the 107 M8 . it has 3 1/2 RC components exhaust-stage 1- screaming eagle tuner. love the sound and the torque/ power curve.
I have these https://www.ebay.com/itm/Jones-Exhau...hk1&vxp=mtrese, and love them;
I`m running RC Components slip on mufflers from my local Harley dealer in Lynchburg, Virginia. also installed a Stage 1 kit along with the Screaming Eagle tuner. like the tone of the exhaust , love the power and torque. adding stuff as the budget allows. so far i have installed a rear bumper ( mandatory) luggage rack, derby cover from A/N (black and chrome) front axle nut covers from A/N all match the RC exhaust tips. the trike is the Vivid Black and chrome. I will post pic when I get a chance. Not to bad for only having a little over 400 miles on her.
