A couple of my buddies are running the Bassani and Samson headers and keep telling me how great they are. The Bassanis are on a 01 Road Glide and the Samsons are on a 03 Ultra. They both have hi flow air fliter, pipes, DFO (road Glide) and Power Commander (ultra).

My question is there any real benefit from running the headers with slip ons? Do they make the bike run cooler since no crossover, any true HP or TQ gains other than seat of the pants guess? Thanks for any feedback

I RUN THE SAMSONS ON MY BIKE. IT IS HARD FOR ME TO TELL YOU WHAT GAINS THERE WOULD BE ON A STOCK BIKE, BUT ILL TELL YOU WHEN IM WFO THESE PIPES LET MY BIKE BREATH GOOD. AS WITH ANY 2 INTO 2 PIPE YOUR BEST GAINS WILL BE AT FULL THROTTLE. FOR LOW END AND MID RANGE 2 INTO 1 IS BEST.
