(seems unnecessarily expensive just to get the same sound as slip ons) I put on a set of Screamin Eagle slip-ons at the same time as a stage 1 download, a S/E breather and set of Andrews #26 gear drive cams. Mine runs like a strpied azz ape Yeah, man... Do what you please; Its your bike and you're the only on that has to be happy. Changing the bars is cool, but the other guy is right... it involves adapted cables and brake hose....you gotta really want to change the bars to go through all that.

Screaming Eagle mufflers will run you about $350 or so and you won't need to add a fuel pack. They aren't too much louder but do have a nice deeper sound. I had them on my 2007 FXDC.

But the apes, can be a very costly change. You not only need the new bars, but need to run all new control cables and wires to. Depending on the cables you buy, that can run you 3 or 4 hundred bucks. Then there's the wiring, extensions and pig tails. Fluid for the front brakes and other stuff. If you don't know what your doing, you can really mess things up. I have custom bars on my Harley, I only made a small change and it was a pain to do. I have large hands and to change the bars on my Road King. You have to take apart the head lamp, one very small nut, in a very small space. I finely had to go to Sears to buy a long wrench, to get to it. I now have a tool, I may never need again. Unless I change the bars again. I'd go with the slip on, I have single baffle turn outs on mine. Not as loud as some, but I get a deep throaty rumble. Kind of like cherry bombs on a car, quiet at a stop light. But roar nicely, as you get on the gas. It’s a Harley, do anything you want to it. But the apes, can be a very costly change.
