Roy recently wrote us and asked:

I just bought an 04 Road King and I am in love with the bike....well everything except the exhaust. I am not looking for a pipe that will split my ear drums but I want to be able to hear the bike is running. Something with a little bit of a rumble.

In fact I want a pipe that will give a bit of an "old school rumble" again, not too loud but loud enough that it sounds right.

What would you recommend for my Harley Davidson Road King?

Our Answer

Roy first thanks for asking us our opinion about your Harley Davidson exhaust selection. The good news is that you have an almost unlimited choice in pipes. The Road Kings are immensely popular and all of the major pipe manufacturers are making systems targeted at your selection.

I don't know exactly how old school you want to go but nothing (to me) is more old school than a classic set of "fishtails" on a classic style Harley Davidson such as yours. A number of companies make Fishtail mufflers so you have a choice but I have a friend who has a set of Samson Fishtails on his bike and he loves em. They sound great and they look super cool on his old school ride.
