Pilot Posted November 20, 2007 #1 Posted November 20, 2007 I'm thinking of doing a stage 3 mod to one of the two sets of Harley pipes ( I don't know the part #'s of these pipes) or a set of stock pipes I have. The harley pipes are a bit louder then the stock pipes one of the sets being a bit louder then the other. I'm now running a set of turned out mufflers from JC Whitney PN ZX017037U which make the bike sound real good and they turn the heads of Harley rides. The JC Whitney's a 3 years old now and a bit beat up and they look bad on a new 07. My harleys are still in good shape and of course the stocks are in A1 condition. My question is does any one have a sound clip of the stock pipes or harley pipes that have had a stage 3 mod done to them? 32"longTurned Out MufflersZX017037U
Kregerdoodle Posted November 20, 2007 #2 Posted November 20, 2007 Did you have to make any mods to install these?? either carbs or mounting brackets?? Those look great on a Venture...
shooter3001 Posted November 20, 2007 #3 Posted November 20, 2007 Check out http://www.venturers.org/tech_library they have some sound clips there.
skidrow Posted November 20, 2007 #4 Posted November 20, 2007 Kbay-i Have The P-clamps Used To Mount Harley Muffs On Yours. I Paid $15 Plus Shipping For My Roadkings. If You Need The Clamps Give Me A Shout. We Could Do Breakfast Or Lunch Some Time.

No mods required, they are slip-on. You will need 2 P clamps which will allow you to mount them using the existing mounting hole, I did have to enlarge the clamp holes a bit. And I did install K&N filters but you don't need the filters. I will make a sound clip this afternoon and post it.
MrRadi8 Posted November 20, 2007 #6 Posted November 20, 2007 Leave the stock cans alone. I had completely gutted cans on my MM when I got it. As described so eloquently on here somewhere, it was like a mouse farting in a tin can. I have stage IV RK cans and it is in no way loud. I leave the neighborhood at 6am and nobody gets bothered. It has a decent sound when I get on it. I'm on the hunt now for some slash-cut cans to enhance the look.
Pilot Posted November 20, 2007 Author #7 Posted November 20, 2007 I made 2 video files with sound of course but the site won't let me upload MPEG files so if you want to hear the pipes send me an email and I will mail them back to you.
Freebird Posted November 20, 2007 #8 Posted November 20, 2007 OK....I just added mpeg file types so you should be able to upload them now. Assuming they are not too large.
Pilot Posted November 21, 2007 Author #9 Posted November 21, 2007 Thanks Freebird for adding MPEG. My files were over 20M so I didn't upload them. However I figured out how to retreive just the sound off my video camera and convert them to mp3 files so I uploaded them. There are 4 files one starting, going away, drive by and returning.
Kregerdoodle Posted November 21, 2007 #10 Posted November 21, 2007 sounds good, sothat was with the RK pipes????
