Well I almost have 8K on my 03 and it's still very solid and I don't see any signs of wear yet. One day I will get a Dyna but I'm gonna ride the OEM still it's shot.

Its been a week now since the OEM mod, and I'm likin it better all the time. The exhaust is running much free'er, but not obnoxiously loud.

But I sure could use some midrange enrichment,......my next project.

I would like a Dyna myself but I hate to waste a prefectly good muffler. How many miles do people tend to get on the stock muffler before it starts to fall out? I have a feeling the stock muffler will last a long time.


I didn't replace my muffler until I replaced my engine:  about 54,000 miles.

I wracked my brains trying to decide what to do with my '96. Had a price of 106.00 for a new Jardine slip-on, but that fell thru. Have decided that I am going to just wear it out. No re-jetting and such. I do need to do the white washer thing however.

I planned to run my stock for a long time, but I broke some of the welds on some of the supporting bracketry (dragging the pavement in corners) and found that installing my $20 Dyna was both easier to do and less expensive to do than putting the stock muffler back to right.  And lighter.  And simpler.

Now that I am used to the Dyna, I like it fine.  It rumbles more and on a fast interstate run it will huff and puff on the exit ramps deceleration like an airbrake would -- interesting noises and I expect some small flames are shooting out of it when it makes that "rottle rottle rottle" sound on decel.

What did you have to do to the carb when you added the dyna? I guess that's covered in the tech section, but maybe you could give a "down and dirty"
