Cycle Shack has a terrible web site. I don't know if that's how they deliver their slip-fit mufflers so inexpensively, but try not to let the poor web design throw you. They do supply decent OE replacement mufflers for a bargain.
The MLX-130 is advertised by Cycle Shack as having "traditional American sound and styling." They styling is definitely classic -- a straight back pipe with your choice of slash down, tapered, turnout, or baloney slice tips. The sound, on the other hand, is classic if you're talking about the big voice of the Harley.
Some riders have hesitated due to the growl these mufflers deliver. I suppose it depends on what you're looking for in your bike. If you want to ride around at 4 o'clock in the morning in a small community, you might want something more quiet. On the other hand, you might want a big noise in traffic, or to defend your bike's rights to free speech.
Polished chrome never goes out of style, and these will mount easily to the OE support and head pipes. Designed for the Harley Sportster, but able to fit a variety of other bikes, just check with Cycle Shack about your model. But give them a call rather than deal with that web page.
