Opinions please

I just purchased a '10 FLHRC and would like some in put on exhaust for it.The stock exhaust just doesn't have the sound I want but I am hoping it will "break in" somewhat with some miles ( I'm up to 109) and rumble a little bit. Any input on slip ons, pro's and con's will be greatly appeciated. Looking at Bassani but I am open to all.

Welcome to the show. you'll get better results from this bunch if you tell us a little about urself. we kinda like a little forplay before we give it up. my 2 cts tho. ride it a while more till you get the feel of ur bike before you do any big changes. Good luck.

That's cool, I threw a little bit out there in the New to the forums section but it's kinda hard to talk about yourself, talking about others is easy ... Mid 40's, over weight, broke again and trying to get some feedback so after the break in I can think about getting new slip ons for it, I'm not a hardcore cruiser but you never know, hope to ride as much as I can. Bought the extended warrany and then found out the dealer won't honor the warranty if any mods are made unless they do the work. Still have plenty of time to ponder as I only have a little over 100 miles on it

Md Jeff... Good to have you here. If you're still unsure after checking out the various exhaust threads, search Google for Vance and Hines Monster Ovals. These are relatively new, high tech slip-ons (on the pricey side) but the reviews are rave and they're the best slip-ons I've ever experienced... performance/sound.

OK, Here's one of the reviews...
