    I'm finally giving up on my 1976 XLH and am considering a 2006 Road King Classic. Seems everyone immediately replaces the exhaust?!?! Why? Sound, performance, looks? Seems the more I read the more I hear of people ahving problems after the remapping is done,is the stock system that bad? If replacement is best which system is best? Some intel please before I buy.

    most folks like the bike to make a little noise..stock is a little quiet though I find mine to be ok..[but I'm listening to a stereo so I don't want a lot of noise] Set up properly with a stage one kit..air cleaner/pipe/reflash or power commander or race tuner you can really wake them up..stock the bike is a little stuffed up.One great thing about Harleys is that you can do a million different things to 'em. The Road King is a nice bike..you'll like it.

    Go for the pipes that sound good

    Old one,

    go for the pipes that sound good. Like the post before me, there are ways to get the punch out of the TC88's with a power commander and high flow air filter.
