I have an 09 Vegas and have thought about getting the Shorty GP Exhaust pipe ends from radiantcycles.com that just slip on the tail end of my stock exhaust. Will unplugging the O2 sensors help it rich out a little more to protect longevity? Also, does anyone know of anyone or ever used these type of "slip ons"?
Who is turning this it into another FI tuner war thread? Seperate folks here were talking about the VFCIII and the AFRPLUS. No one brought up your favorite brand of the PCV or "tuner war" till you chimed in.
Just sayin,

I put these slip ons on my girlfriend's high ball. Should I just get the bike remapped or will unhooking the sensors suffice? Still have to go in for my 500 mile checkup. Will they have a problem with me unhooking the sensors?
Wait until after the 500 mile if you are concerned about what they think.
I would avoid the remap/flash of the ECU. For what that costs you could get a VFC III and tune it with that. The VFC will require that the O2s be disconnected.
If all you are doing is slip-ons, the VFC will suffice. It works better if the ECU is left alone (not flashed).

I once purchased a similar set but didn't care for the results. I went from open stock header to these and felt that the decreased internal diameter of the slip-on tips restricted the exhaust too much. I don't know what these run, but the other set were 1.75" at the inlet and closer to 1" internally. Cost the same as these. I would not recommend, but they did look nice (enough).
Not for nothing, but if you are interested in the AFR+. I would advise calling Dobeck about your pipe choice. They may well suggest you go a different way. Do to the reversion issues with short pipes and their system

Yes I have she screams down the road! As of right now I just have the O2 sensors unplugged and she has some excellent power!! Love the way they sound too!! Not obnoxiously loud, just right!
I installed them and ther is an adapter that is inside that slides out for the correct size for a Victory. They sound great. Drill a hole in the end of the chrome supports and they bolt into the holes that hel the old muffler bracket. Use the same bolts

Just put some rush slip ons on my 2015. 2.25" baffle and wow does it sound good. Catfish at rush said no modifications are needed with just slipons. There's another thread somewhere where someone used the 2" baffle and they like theirs too.
