The Best Sounding Slip Ons For Harley Davidson Motorcycles - Khrome Werks
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 мар 2022
- Hey guys If you've been searching for the ultimate sound upgrade for your Harley Davidson, you're in for a treat. In today's video, I'm taking a deep dive into the world of motorcycle exhausts as I install and review the Khrome Werks 4.50" HP-PLUS MUFFLER EDGE TC in BLACK, designed specifically for 1996-2016 Touring models.
I've been on a quest to find slip-ons that not only make my Harley Davidson Ultra Limited louder but also give it that deep, aggressive growl that turns heads everywhere I go. I've tested some big names like Rinehart Racing 4-inch pipes and TAB Performance 4.5 pipes with Zombie baffles, but none could match the Khrome Werks HP Plus slip-ons.
What sets these slip-ons apart is their ability to produce the deepest and most menacing exhaust note you can imagine. In this detailed review, I'm leaving no sound wave unexplored. I'll provide you with a thorough Harley Davidson exhaust sound comparison, covering everything from cold starts to takeoffs, ride-bys, and decelerations.
But here's the kicker: If you decide to take it a step further and add headers and a complete stage one kit, you're in for a real treat. Combined with these upgrades, the Khrome Werks HP Plus slip-ons create a symphony of power and sound that will redefine your riding experience.
Now, let's talk style. These slip-ons aren't just about sound; they're a fashion statement for your bike. They'll give your motorcycle that classic Harley Davidson aesthetic synonymous with freedom on the open road.

Those mufflers are huge. They look great. They sound great too, which is what it's all about.🤠😎👍🏼
Yes they are. Looking forward to how they will sound if I go full stage 1
...but I am alone, on my couch, at 3am, watching and listening how good they look and sound.
I need to get them on the new bike.
Immediately hit the like button once I heard you say you included a link with seperate audio file to listen to. Those who know, KNOW! These pipes sounds great and I'm gonna heavily consider them for my road king special
Thanks for that!
Where's the link, please?
Bought them and installed them because of this video. Love the sound, love the look.
Thank you so much for saying that. I'm glad you are enjoying them.
Did this to my Honda 90 -- straight piped it. Sounds just like yours. Brutal! Getting looks from the babes; as well as a surprising number of dudes. Feels good to be a member of the exhaust community. see all y'all on the road
Straight pipes on a wing nice!!
Great video Bry and they sound awesome, your bike is looking sweet
Thank I’m really excited to ask some big upgrades this year.
Sounds awesome Bry, glad you were able to get them on. 🤙💯
Thanks! Now I can stop dreaming of yours :-)
@@BryTheBiker Wait to you hear after Pick it up this week from get lowered
Another great video. Love the sound
Glad you enjoyed! I am really happy with them.
They look good and sound great. Fantastic product!!
Thank you I am going to start building out the bike with that balck and chrome contrast look.
Thanks Bryan, very helpful info. Just about to order a set 👍
Nice! What lease keep me updated I’m curious to see what you think.
I had black Rinehart 3.5 inch slip-ons installed on my 09 King and have never-ever looked back. To me, my 3.5" Rinehart's sound super strong and deep. They sound a whole lot better than some of the newer Harleys today. Those Khrome Werks are sharp looking but sound a bit too muffled to me. I do like their looks with the gray-lined strip inside the angled end. They look great on your bike. Thanks for sharing, Bry. Enjoyed a full-watch and gave a big thumbs-up. 👍🏼🤠 6/25/23
I can see what your saying. I went to a full KW system on my new bike and what I love most about it is that feel it I’m your chest sound like the Rineharts
I like that blacked out look Bry. They have a nice deep rumble. Awesome review! 👊🇺🇸
Thanks 👍 I am really happy with that sound.
Nice! Thanks for the review.
Thank you for watching
Liked & Subscribed, thank you for doing this video, was on the fence with the 2 previous exhaust you owned, speed safe, & take care, Kenneth
Thanks for the sub! Please let me know how you like them and the sound in person.
you know Bry, i was really hoping for a sound test while doing a 3-4th gear burnout, really curious what that sounds like 🤔
great video bud 💪🏻
Let me see if I can find a "how to" video on that :-)
Great video Bry! Good sound.
Thanks! The headers will make it even better.
I installed mine this morning. The low rumble is intoxicating. The sound is unbelievable and everyone knows I'm coming and no one cuts me off. In fact, some move out of my way. lol
I love how good their stuff sounds
Sounds great, love the satin black look as well
Same it really is a great contrast to the chrome
Thanks for posting..great review .
Thanks for watching!
Thank You. Very helpful video. I bought a 2009 HD Trike. Was thrilled when I heard I could get a set of V and H Big shots on it. I waited to long to do that. Now they added a baffle and they only come in chrome at the moment. I can't find a sound test video. Right now these pipes of yours is my clear choice. I'm not depressed about the situation any longer .
Thank-you for watching. I can say of the brands I have tried on both my Harley-Davidson this is the beat spending slip on for me. I have a full system on my Road Glide and they sound beyond amazing.
That is a good looking slip on and a monster sound!
loving the black and chrome combo! And a full stage 1 will make it sounds even better.
I thought my SVT Jackhammers were the best slipons I heard until I heard these. I was very impressed by the tone of these KW mufflers.You gave a very good presentation.
Thank you for the kind words. I really love the tone of these on my bike.
Do you have a 103 or 117 or 114
I have a 114 Ultra.
The slip ons sound great. Adding the headers will definitely increase sound output. Ride safe 👊👍🇺🇸
Thanks really looking forward to doing a full stage 1
Khrome Werks 4.5 Hp Plus
I just added these Khrome Werks 4.5 Hp Plus slip on mufflers today. My previous Road Glide had Tab 4.5 with the Zombie baffles which I loved but at times I could of been happier with them not as loud on long hwy rides. Anyway I decided on my new bike which is Completely stock, to go with Khrome Werks feeling they wouldn’t be as loud and have a nice deep tone. Seems like they’re exactly what I expected, i rode about 100miles with them today and my Bike ran perfect with these slip on’s I really didn’t notice any loss of torque, no decel pop and a constant deep tone coming from these mufflers at all times, and not super loud, you definitely feel the rumble and hear it, they sound really nice and deep without being to noisy. I’m happy my Bike is still running great just like it was before I added these slip on’s.
That’s the same issue I had when I tried Tabs. They don’t sound bad , but I found them painful on long highway rides so to the ear ringing. I feel like even with the fully KW system on my new bike they are the right tone for my taste without the ear pain.
Awesome review! I'm looking into their 2 into 1 system... I might have to change to team Khrome Werks lol
Yes, from what I have seen the 2 into 1 sound amazing!
Us Jersey boys need as much sound as we can get
@@martinhc2007 Definitely cuz people can't drive lol...
great sounding pipes man!
Thanks!
They sound really good! We had Rinehart Motopro45 on our Ultra Limited and then we went to the Rinehart DBX45 on our Road Glide Limited. I think most of the slipons will sound better on a twin cam over the Milwaukee 8. Great video!
Thanks! The twin cam really does have a sound I love.
But not as good as the Evo's, shovelheads or Iron's. : )
My 17 CVO SG came with KW’s when I bought it used last year. It sounded like a go-kart. Not to mention the baffles were completely rusted out on the inside. Switched to the Rinehart DBX45’s and sounded 100% better. Added the slimline header and she screams now.
@@cmolchany2010 never heard them in person but glad you found a pair you like.
just bought some...sounds great
Nice! Glad you are happy with them
Just switched to these from Rinehart 4" slip ons. The low sound and fullness won me over - and the Rineharts had a mid-range drone that, at highway speed, got to be intrusive and after full day in the saddle caused ringing in the ears...even with earplugs and full helmet. These are lower, quieter at highway speed. Just what I was looking for!
Yes, the ear ringing is the last thing you want on a touring bike. The low end rumble that you can feel is so good on these. I am glad you are enjoying them.
Sound great Bry!
Thank you sir!
Look and sound great 👍
Thank you 😋
Welp, I think I found my new pipes. I was at a harley shop talking tonsomw guys about pipes and they said very similar to what you said about the growl and the low end sound. Thanks!
Good stuff! Let me know how you like them.
Sound amazing I keep thinking about pulling the trigger on a set for my 2013 road glide but I don’t think they will be loud enough for my liking
Pipes are so hard to decide on. I myself like that low-end thump and the fact you can feel it.
Hey bri I put the Vance & Hines power duals on my 2016 ultra limited and it sounds excellent
Very nice
Sounds awesome
Thanks you!
Sounds Great! You really do ride!
They do! And yes I ride but the haters will say it was CGI :-)
Hey Brian, thanks for the review! Question, do you know what khrome werks inserts your using? The louvered or straight core?. Thanks again
Thank you for watching. These are the pipes with the stock baffles that came with them. I tried the inserts on the full KW system on my road glide and while they did seem to add a bit of power I didn’t care for the way they sound. The full system sounds so mean.
Sounds bad ass Bry!
Thank you sir!
Nice video. Pipes look and sound good. You mentioned TAB Zombies. I'll put my observations here. I've ran 4.5 Zombies with the Z-Rings and Torque cones for roughly 6000 miles on my 2020 Road King Special. For me they looked and performed very well. Fast forward to install of the Fuel Moto Jackpot 2-1-2 head pipe with Ventilator Air Cleaner and Fuel Moto Power Vision tune. Can you say Extremely Satisfied with the same Tab Zombies I was already running. I've never tried Khrome Werks, so with that in mind, I'd say they would have to be pretty amazing to do better than the Tabs on my set-up. Fit/Finish/Performance of the Tabs would be very difficult to match or beat in my humble opinion. Not attempting to discount Krome Werks. I'm sure they make a great product. I'm glad they are working out for you. You'll be pretty stoked whenever you change the head pipe with a good stage 1 tune. Makes a very noticeable difference in the ride. Take care.
Can't wait to do the full stage 1
I'm looking to get new slip ons for my dad's '18 Tri Glide. He has Woods cam, Fuel Moto head pipe, V&H mufflers and Power Vision tuner now. While I like the V&H mufflers I want more/better sound and performance. I have really been leaning on the Tab's with zombie baffles. In your opinion since you've ran both you say Khrome Works sound and perform better? He wants his bike to bark btw. Can I get both y'alls opinions?
@@RyanTaylor1223 TAB gets my recommendation. Great product. Fantastic sound. If you want bark the Zombies are hard to beat. Take care.
I have the reinharts on my 114, and your review may tip me toward the Kromeworks.
If you go that way let me know!
Sounds great!!!
Thanks so in love with the sound.
@@BryTheBiker love the chrome tips too.
I noticed you don't have the Memphis Shades hand guards on anymore... Because of the new bars ?
Install KW 4.5 HP Plus on my CVO. I love it!
Nice! I love how they make black chrome ones for the CVO!
Yep, got rid of Rinehart Xtreme True duals with the 4” Slip ons on my 2016 FLTRU and went with the TAB 50cals with 2.5 baffles. You are correct that the Zombies sound tinny…… but if you had tried the 2.5 baffles you would have gotten that “oh wow” grunt. Glad you’re happy with what you got. They sound pretty good! Did they send them for free?
I love how they sound vs the other pipes I have tried. I have a full system going on the new bike.
Sounds so good ,
When u installed those did they fit snug and also did clamp work for you ?
The fit was pretty tight. I ordered their clamps and they are a lot more solid.
@@BryTheBiker
I bought a set but they slip in too easy not snug
I got a 93 FLHS with dual fishtails that recently failed. I just purchased the Krome Werks headers and the HP+ mufflers. Still waiting for the mufflers to get here and I can't wait to put them on.
Oh man I hope you will post sound clips. The headers are next in my list.
@@BryTheBiker When I looked up the parts I couldn't find anything for a bike as old as mine. Luckily I contacted Krome Werks and a Representative gave me part numbers that would work. I'm Hoping everything lines up right . I'll do before and after sound videos and send them to you. Ride safe Brother.
@@LonesomeNomad137 customer service is what makes a company great!
@@BryTheBiker if they fit. I’m always expecting the worst . 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼
Thanks for sharing, just not Throaty enough for me personally, but do sound great.
Fair enough!
May i ask where did you get the rear fender tail light from ? It looks awesome
Thanks for your question. They are are Custom Dynamics lights. I have separate video on them if that helpful for you.
Thanks for watching!
Do you have stage 1 and slip-ons or slip on only? Sounds good trying to find a bike 2022 with different slip- ons. Bought a road king pick it up in 2 weeks. They put the wrong Handlebars on it and cut the cables to short. I keep my bike till they get it right. Take care enjoyed the video.
On the ultra I only had slip on pipes. On my new bike I have a full system in my Road Glide. They sound amazing.
they dont sound bad. good vid
Thank you!
I'm looking to get rid of my stock exhaust to get louder and those look nice to match my all blackened 20223 street glide
Please let me know how you make out. Thanks for watching.
They do sound quite good indeed, personally I don’t like really loud ‘Farty’ sounding harley’s, I would say most of the short pipe options sound terrible to my ear, just loud & unsociable, with no resonance. I have a sportglide with the baffles taken out, sounds ok, but I think the 2-1 CW system might be a better option.
Yes, most only sound good at light but once you get on it they are not the same.
Sound Great! Quick question though....have you had your compensator checked lately to make sure its ok and not loose or worn? At 5:30-5:45 in the video i can really hear it knocking. then again at 6:45 - 6:55. Maybe its not the compenasator but sure sounds that way! Anyway...nice scoot!
Good catch, it was looked at after this video was made. Thanks' for looking out for me :-)
Nice Great Sound. Just ordered mine for my Trike. Heard them live at the dealership. This video just confirmed I made the right choice. I have Vance and Hines... Not impressed. Make my bike sound like a Honda. So can't wait for the new pipes.
Right on! Let me know how you like them.
@@BryTheBiker maybe I'll attempt to make a sub video to demonstrate them on my trike.
You should for sure
My mom bought me a Harley with a sick exhaust. Now I'm a bad ass.
thanks mom
I'm guess that was so you dosn't move out from the basement?
@@BryTheBiker I think she's hoping someone shoots me.
Thanks for this video! I have been looking for something to match the stock exhaust of my 2020 CVO Limited and I heard that Khrome Werks had something that matched up perfectly (Smoked Chrome). So I've been wanting to hear what these sounded like. I currently have the Bassani DNT's on the bike and while I love them, they're too long to fit under the stock heat shields. So they stick out about an inch to an inch and a half and my OCD can't handle that. So I'm in the market for the Khrome Werks. I absolutely love the sound. Is that the stock baffle in the mufflers?
Yes, that is the stock baffles. I love the low tone they have.
@@BryTheBiker I do too!
How did your mpg vary with those ? I put on 4.5’s w/o baffles on my ‘21 ultra limited and went down to 37 mpg from 45 mpg. No other changes for me right now other than the slip ons. Once the warranty is up , maybe a stage 1 and a cam.
I will be honest I don't really pay attention to my MPG. That said I don't remember need gas more then before, but thats clearly not scientific :-)
Nice!
Thanks!
I’ve got a question for you I bought a set of shark Road slip. Ons, and I was so impressed with the throatyness if that’s even a word, but to Harley Rider as it is. After about 200 miles the shark rod slip bonds started popping and I can’t stand it so if you can’t answer me back, is this something I should look into or should I just drop the money on a set a Vance and Hines with Vance and Hines. I know what I’m gonna get and really don’t have to worry about losing the throat/deep ness that I’m looking for. Please somebody answered because I can’t stand the shark roads any longer. What should I buy?
These have a great sound and the finish has a lifetime warranty. The sound is that deep sound that makes it sound like a Harley without leaving yours ears ringing. I don't know anything about Shark Road but where you able to get ahold of anyone to talk to them about your issue?
I thought these would be much more sound than what I heard. I'm looking to change out my neighbor haters with much more louder base sound. thanks for your video!!!
The full system I have on my M8 are a lot louder and had great low end thump
Looking to replace these firecracker V & H I have and I think I found right one
Let me know how you make out !
sounds good man, wait till you get a header on it, really opens it up
Thanks, and will have a bit more power too.
Oh yeah, really wakes the motor up
Are you running a baffle? I have a set of these for my 2022 in my garage I bought off a forum member But they did not have end caps. I ordered a set a month and a half ago still have not come in
I was running the baffles it came with.
Which baffles were in these? I've seen a ton of videos on the KW pipes, and I've loved the sound. I heard them in-person last weekend and was greatly disappointed. They were quiet. I don't know what baffles he had though.
They are the standard ones that are built in. You can add ones “on top” of that to change the sound
@BryTheBiker I just watched a video on KW (RevZilla?) that explained the baffle inserts. All the other videos I've watched just called the inserts baffles lol. So I just thought that they were interchangeable baffles. Now I have a better understanding lol. In a simpler explanation, the inserts are basically an inner sleeve that sits inside the baffles
Who needs viagra with videos like this? I love the sound!!!
Right? Make sure you check out my full KW system in my RoadGlide. Has some great sound samples
What baffles do you have installed? Ripper, performance or louvered? Or no baffles
The one that come standard already installed.
Sounds really good, really shows how bad you ride the clutch
Thanks for watching
They sound good but what would they sound like with a stage 2
No idea to be honest. But I have there full system with stage 2 on my road glide and they sound amazing
That sound... Damn..
:-)
They do sound good, I think the Tab performance beats them tho
Sound is so subjective so I say if it sounds good to you then they are the ones to buy :-)
Have you installed baffles in them yet?
I only the ones that it comes with. Doing stage 1 in a few weeks.
Wait.. did you go back to 1955 and then return a few seconds later?😃 all kidding aside, the pipes sounds great.
Thanks, the new one on my M8 with a fully system sounds even better.
What baffles were used with these slip ons?
They are the baffles that came with the pipes
They come in many different finishes. Even CVO black chrome
My road glide has black chrome it looks so good
These sound like my 4.5 inch shark road slip ons
Interesting
Get them on an M8 too if you can.
Once I get that M8 Roadglide I will for sure. But will be a few years
Maybe put on black chrome
😎😎
I’m gettin same pipes to my bikes.
Let me know how you like them !
@@BryTheBiker will do
I like the pipes but I have to disagree I have tab with zombie baffles on my 2020 road glide and I have chrome w on my 2021 street glide and my tab the more I get on the better the grunt the chrome w my radio drowns them out but they do sound good but not loud enough that’s just my opinion
Nice, can say I have heard them in person on a m8.
Sound as good as cfrs
?
Miss the evo
A lot of folks do.
So what were the db at 2500RPM?
I sold the bike and got a Roadglide so not sure
Everyone remember Twin cam and M8 two totally different sounds. Why black pipes bro ?
I wanted to do black headers to. Just to do something different
Ok, they look great but I’m not hearing much, I will try again on my stereo
It's really hard to capture the true sound.
5:20 you get to hear the exhaust.
They sounds great
Do you still have the cat installed?
Yes but I plan or replacing the headers this year. I will be doing a follow up video of how it sounds after stage one and then how it sounds with the headers
5:20 for sound
They sound so good!
What’s the intro song?
It is music from the RUclips creative studio.
You think thoes sounder louder and better than tab with zombies?? I don’t think so.
It’s hard sound is subjective
Some people don’t like ridiculous loud sound like others do.
I have screaming eagle on my new used road glide, they sound like dogshit on 🔥 fire...
Sound was louder when you were talking then when you were on the bike the sound is way too low still can't tell..also do not like the end caps they should match the muffler not gloss if the muffler is flat or satin.Dont care for the silver in the end caps. that definitely might be a deal breaker for me... I shouldn't have to spray paint them with heat resistant paint to cover the silver...or spray the tip to match the muffler just saying
Its hard to get them to sound the same for sure. I can say in person they sound great
@@BryTheBiker yeah everyone has their own opinion loud pipes saves lives just that simple!
Those don’t cut it for me again my opinion
They sound like a standard pipe
I loved the sound
They sound softer than my Vance and Hines. They are kind of week
In person is different
@@BryTheBiker ok I’ll take your word for it and keep my VH
Btr then rineharts? Unlikely...
They have a lower note for sure.
Sheesh,can we hear them now??
What?
Blow the Tab Zombies away???????? I very much doubt that remark Sir. Even if they managed to be better......there is no way they blow them away.
I think that sounds better it’s not that high in shriek, I also think that finish, especially in the black style better because they don’t chip
Best sounding slip ons is AMC
Not sure I know the brand off top of my head
they have nothing on true dual rhineharts
Can't say I have heard them in person. Is that what your running?
holy crap, how many clutches do you go through per year.. you have no business riding a harley
Well as a keyboard expect like yourself without offer advice advise I’m not sure how to be a “real” biker like yourself.
Sounds like when you Fart in a bath tub!!
I’m wondering how you got in my bathroom?
Everyone has a different idea of what sounds good, to me personally, not that impressive.
That’s fair. It’s all about what works for you
