To be honest with you it doesn't sound (The YouTube video that is.) or act any different than the screaming Eagle mufflers that everybody has been putting on their Streets from Harley Davidson. It would be nice to see a comparison, an A/B comparison between the screaming Eagle and some of these aftermarket mufflers if there really is a difference that would justify the cost.

It's really hard to go by what somebody says because the sonic memory is very short lived in humans. As we all know the shorter the muffler is the louder it will appear but the pitch and tonal quality may be different from muffler to muffler and may appeal to some and not to others. I guess I'm just adding my two cents worth here because I'm very happy with the screaming Eagle that I bought.

Besides the sound, is there any change to performance?

I'm only going to give you my thoughts on the screaming Eagle because I bought it shortly after I got my bike. It seems to me that you can hear better when you're shifting or when you are in a gear and the bike is really working too hard in that gear than you could with the stock muffler. Of course being and long time rider I go by feel more than sound but you now can hear it a lot better than you could with the stock muffler.

It also seems to have a little more pep when you're starting out but then again this could be a placebo mind thing.

Sounds like the type of thing that you have to experience for yourself in order to really get. You think that it is better than the stock, or just different?

I would have to say far better than the stock.

As a long time rider I also go by feel more than sound but even riding with ear plugs, that I use for long rides, and the stock exhaust I could easily hear the engine. It was highly muffled but I could still hear it rumbling deep inside (which is why I want to let some of that sound escape LOL).

I ride with earplugs ,too. does this show our age StoneFree?

You're probably thinking if I wear earplugs what's the point of the screaming Eagle muffler, but I can still hear it.
