Dyna muffler swap
03/26/13 at 16:11:40
 
I noticed that several owners have changed to a Dyna muffler.  Does this give any advantage over the stock other than a change in sound.

It's about 10lbs lighter... and gives a slight performance boost...
... but it's mostly about cosmetics and sound...

As Sero points out, the Dyna muffler is lighter...and 10 lbs on a 380 lb/25hp bike is significant. The performance boost is slight,until you add the other modifications. But the sound is much sweeter....it really lets the "thumper" come through!

And just getting rid of that fat,ugly stock exhaust is worth the time and $$ !

I really need to find me one of the Dyna muffs around here,  nobody seems to have one at any of the shops I've called.  The long emgo I bought from Ryca last year is already starting to burn out and getting louder by the day it seems like, not to mention the chrome plating on it was extremely cheap and is flaking in spots.

The Harley mufflers are very sturdy,.. and have excellent quality chrome...
...(I get stains off with #000 steel wool,... and it never scuffs the chrome... Try that on other aftermarket mufflers and you'll be sorry)....

There's a pair on ebay starting at $0.99 and 4 days left with no offers yet. The buyout is $29.99 and shipping is $25. See if you can find another forum member in your area who wants to split them, or get the pair ans resell the second one, you might even make a few bucks if you get it cheap enough LOL.

If you can't find a dealer in your area and want to try and find one without using eBay....post a free add on Craigslist and let people konw you are looking for one or two.  There are hundreds of stock mufflers that are laying on shelves out there....just about every Harley owner takes the stock muffler off.

The ones in that particular eBay posting have the baffles removed - would that make them as loud as the RYCA Emgo?

Yes,.. loud as a straight pipe, and not good sound or torque...
Don't buy a muffler without a baffle...

Keep your eyes out,.. and you should be able to find one for $30 or so, shipped... maybe even a pair... (I like to have a spare)...

Also beware of buying some West Coast mufflers as they could have catalytic converters in them if they came from CA.  Serow says they run fine - but I accidently bought a set with them inside and didn't want to run them.  We also had one fellow post a picure of bluing a the front of the muffler and we could not figure out why.....then Serowbot came up with the reason....they were Catallytic Converter mufflers and they woud get hot in that spot where the catalyst was.

I put a cat on mine and it sounds great with
no noticable overheating.
BTW... I don't think that the catalytic mufflers
are limited to just Calif. Harleys. Mine came
from Tennessee.

We got one for Aida's bike here in Texas and it has a cat.  It is kinda nice actually...  Less smell (which she really likes) and a cool glow when I follow her at night.  No bluing...
