dont need a power commander, all a slip on is a better looking can with less of a baffle

IMO....No real bang for your buck in power gains. Some do look nice and sound good. I thought about going with an Erion black slip on but how I ride I REALLY don't want to bring any extra attention to myself. I have had full systems on other bikes. Is seems that as I go by some country home being quiet the horses don't jump, the chickens don't die the little rug rats don't run for cover and the adults that may be out and about don't even give me a second look. Add A nice full race system and....yeah you guessed it....A country song....The horses jump and run away, ALL the chickens DIE, The rug rats run screaming and the farmers go for the scatter gun. It's better to draw less attention to yourself if you don't want to find Beauford T. Justice hanging out your next time through.

I guess this is where the riding wile concealed post comes into play. To protect you from Beauford.

Look Zooby, your gonna gain about 5 - 8 hp outta the slip on(ur not nickey or valentina so u wont know the difference). You will notice a slight difference with a pc and a full system. Yea you can download the tune for your bike, but to get the most outta your pc you will need a custom tune. A full system and a custom tune pc is not gonna make your bike do 200mph, you'll be lucky to get 20 mph outta it. Me personally im not gonna invest in a pc with a slip on, i also wouldnt invest in a full system/custom pc and tune. The only time i notice a significant difference with a full system and a pc is because of a sprocket change. Just my .02 cents though.

5-8 = slip on... are you nuts... with a quality slip on and a custom tune, average 3-7

I'm rockin' the Erion slip-on and it's plenty loud for me. Sounds sick, especially at high rpm's but there are certainly times when I'd prefer to not draw so much attention to myself. It's actually got me pulled over before... Did get the PCIII and noticed a difference, but this add-on is not essential and if you don't have the money then don't worry about it.
