- Harley Davidson Headers, are they worth it? Head Pipe, power and sound upgrade! My @harleydavidson Road Glide already had slip-on mufflers, and high flow air cleaner, and a basic tune, but the exhaust wasn't quite complete. It still needed a proper header to get the exhaust system ready for the @SSCycleInc 475C cam chest that is going into the bike this week. I went ahead and installed a @TABPerformance 2-2 head pipe to open up the system to get it ready to breathe right for the cam upgrade. Head pipes like this are "Race Use Only" and going the way of the dodo, so make sure you get yours while you still can!

This whole project has been amazing from the beginning. I have to say that your understated humor with the side comments had me rolling with laughter. A most entertaining and informative video you’ve got here. Oh Magoo you’ve done it again!👍👍
I've always enjoyed the reduced heat and added tone and punch that a better flowing header. I really notice the difference with my 21 RKS with the FM jackpot 2-1-2 headpipe and TAB 4.5s. Of course a PV tune and wow she's a ripper, and the lack of heat on that right side cooking your passenger or own right calf. Love the tone and way she runs. The Grinch is looking great and TAB makes great stuff.
I have the same Jackpot header but will be putting the Jackpot Street Outlaw mufflers in place of my Cobra neighbor haters. I'm doing a stage 2 cam swap and can't wait to get everything installed. The head pipe change I did alone, reduced felt heat enormously and the bike growls.
Thanks for the heads up on getting the pipe before there gone, mine just shipped
Mainly, must delete the blast furnace (cat) from the passenger foot rest. When my 14TC was new, I deleted my cat at 500 miles and did a V&H tune on it. Today, I have many mods on my scooter… there’s not much that hasn’t been upgraded and the header is still the most appreciated by Nana.
Ever seen evo1340 with last two number of 73should be the year right
Did not make Evo’s until 1984
Great job of explaining the ins and outs of adding head pipes. Sounds like it's really worth it.
Always loved the sound of a sportster with short shots. It has that low pop to it. From back in the 70"s that's the sound that always got my attention when there were a lot if David Mann looking choppers running around. Nothing sounds like a HARLEY!!!
I put a Tab Perforamance 2-1-2 on my 2020 Road Glide over the winter (S&S MK45 mufflers and a Screamin’ Eagle Ventilator air cleaner). We did the techno research Maximus tune on it. Love the sound and, improved throttle response.
I did just a head pipe change. I had the stage one and then a few months later I put a Fuel moto jackpot head pipe.
I loved it when you were explaining how you clip the O2 ties, not the actual wires but the zip ties. Sounds like a question that the guy asking you to show the box would ask. "So, I snipped the O2 wires now what?". 😂
I know 2 things about bikes nothing and nothing😊😊. Yet, when you explain things I feel as though I know exactly what you're talking about. Good on you
Hey PM, a tip I’ve found out from experience, Locktite (blue!) the two transmission cover bolts that the lower bracket mounts to. When those things loosen up, you get a trans leak that is a biotch to fix without taking off the head pipe. Nice helpful video. Thx
Good content, honest, down to earth. And you have experience. Thank you.
In the Philippines, the San Miguel l trots. I remember those every time we pulled in. Lasted three days and then you were good. Don't drink the water!
I did this also, used a Fullsac tuned head pipe love it, used stock shields to.
Have you ever looked at Fullsac true duals out of Lake Havasu. I have ran two sets on my CVOs and the performance is impressive
I’m running the Khrome Werks hide away header. Make the bike look like it’s running a stock header but it’s not. Sounds amazing
S&S makes a head pipe that has the same size diameter outlets for both mufflers. It's also a 2-1-2.
Excellent video loved it. The comedy in this was incredible made my ribs hurt.
I was going to thumbs up the video anyway, but the "Eye of the Tiger" reference is what got the thumbs up early. I can't get it out of my head now.
There was a full performance I tell ya!
@@ProfessionalMonkey Next time, get that in the video...THAT'S what we really come here for!
I’m tough I’m in a motorcycle gang too!!
I'm enjoying my new S&S 2 into 1 sidewinder. It can be loud and can be quiet too. I like the rumble it makes when l let off the throttle and it 20 lb. Less. 103 twin cam. PS it was package Nice but no instructions in the box.
Man that bike is BEAUTIFUL
Man, really looking forward to seeing the paint job in person and up close. ..✌️🤣
Gorgeous paint work Monk! Bike came together nicely!
Sometimes current Monkey has a hard time looking out for future Monkey. I run into the same thing.
Looking for that Panhead / Shovelhead sound is like chasing momma's heartbeat. Only she has it.
i just bought a brand new 2022 Indian Super Cheif and i like Harleys but i will never own another one. the one i had spent more time in the shop then it did on the road. the Indians can sound just like a Harly as well. but it sounds great my friend. met you and mrs. Monkey last year at the buffalo chip during sturgis. hope to see you this year as well take care
You are so twisted !
Love the content and your demeanor.
Thanks for sharing the valuable info.
Love this channel!
Thank you!
I gutted my exhaust and lost torque put dk customs torque inserts in and made a noticeable difference for the best
D Ks Thunder torque inserts are sweet! Pulled the baffles out of my MagnaFlo tru duals! Bike sounds like a beast! Noticeable torque gain !
Dang that’s a purrdy green, amazing paint job!
I wish my biggest worry was about the packaging...enjoy this and I know you will.
I absolutely love all your videos. 🇨🇦
Please show the box everytime. It means a lot to me. 😲🤣
Try out SVT mufflers. I have the Jackhammers but they all sound great.
I wish u was putting on a woods WM8-22X-E cam
Ok so I have come to the conclusion that your videos are hazardous to ones wallet. Ive kinda jumped around since subscribing to your channel. I watched the cam install on this bike first. So now I want a 475 in mine. I then watched the wheel install on another bike so now I want wheels and now ive watched this video which now makes me want a new head pipe and possibly new mufflers from TAB Performance. Oh well it's just money. 😊
I am waiting for my true dual head pipes to come in for my old 2007 Electra glide.
"Medicinal Beer"... Love It!! 😂
Run a tap in the threads to clean them first
How do you like the twin air filter does it get in the way when breaking I see you like them.. sorry for the dumb questions..your pal chad
I was thinking I had more time till Sturgis and when you said less then 90 days madame think I better get stuff done for my trip there as well lol.
I’m starting this years series on Friday, it’s close!
@@ProfessionalMonkey are you going to have any meet n greets this year it be awesome to meet you and your wife. I will be there aug 4-10 it be a honer
Less heat with cat removal... I don't think the flow is any better. But I could be wrong :-)
Amen. I always thought that racing baggers is like racing station wagons.
What can brown do for you?? Thx for no pkg just do it
Did I miss the link for the tour pack “holder”?
Just a quick question I have an aftermarket Arlen Ness high flow breather an SVG jackhammer pipes and it was tune. Now I’m going to put in the head pipe. Well I have to return.
Does she ave the engine running to keep the air con on?
Eye of the tiger 😂 had me rolling
Loved that Grand Marquis reference. Lol
Okay question the brass washer’s that come with the bungs
How and where are they used exactly
I don’t like the way they’re fitting
I don’t want to get it all together and find I’ve got an exhaust leak
Link for Tour Pac rack?
It's always better when a stretched rear end is tighter.😅
I've been to Mexico. I know Montezuma well!
Tabs are the best pipes I’ve ever had, they have an amazing sound, it never gets old. The perfect mix of obnoxious and mellow if need be. I’ll never buy a different brand again. Those guys deff know what they’re doing.
EXACTLY!
O2 sensors are like a sparkplug, you dont need to sit on the wrench to get them tight!!!
I just wanted to add that I watch your channel a lot for advice on different situations. I am a probate for a support club. I wanted to join the big MC but thought the support club would be better for now since I have a family. So here’s my question I have a diamond with the clubs numbers in it. Im told that I’m kinda a 1 percenter but I’m under a diamond club. What’s the difference? I have my diamond and top rocker with my club name and I’ll get my bottom rocker as a stepping stone. I got 4 more months until I’m full patched. Im stressed! Lol
That's a question for your brothers. An out of state or area opinion can cause more trouble than it's worth.
Great job, what do you think of the MAX -Cell 818H cam?
I don’t know anything about it, sorry.
Lookout for box trucks 😂, I want to see the eye of the tiger workout , you are funny as hell!
You're probably out of breath from your Mexico trip. Fun channel
Merica!
I got another question. I bought a low mileage 04 Harley soft tail deuce screaming eagle. I want crash bars because I haven’t put lots of miles in so I don’t wanna drop it because it’s nice. You know how it has the spoiler with resonator in middle? Thanks
Yeah, the deuce is completely different in a lot of areas. You're gonna have to search for Deuce specific parts for sure.
what happened to the Cobra side out pipe you had?
Gave it to a friend.
Brother graduated from Yappers University with a masters in Yappery 101
Could you shed some light to why head pipes won’t be available long?
I want to see the box😂 ♦️
What would be the right move to get that Harley sound out of a 2023 Street Glide EPA exhaust system? BTW, totally dig your CZcams videos!
If you want to preserve the warranty I would just do slip on mufflers. I would recommend Tab 4" with Zombie Baffles, they're the loudest on a stock header.
@@ProfessionalMonkey I decided to take your advice…partly ;) So I’ve ordered V&H Eliminator 400’s. I’ll definitely record before and after in case you’re interested. Thank you kindly for your comments, very much appreciated!
The box 📦🤣
sorry i wasnt able to make leesburg , hope to catch you at the next event .
🤘🏼
after see your video's on tab exhaust i ordered there 2-1-2 head pipe. came in today 4-2-24. weld had been rewarded over bad areas after chrome work and then spread with silver paint not the quality that you where giving for video. though you would like to now.
They don't paint over welds, they don't paint at all. Something funny went on there. Call them, their products are never anything but perfect. Did you maybe order it from a third party? Call Tab directly, they don't work like that.
The package was it recycled paper?? Lmfaoff 🤣
Harley dealer quoted me 5 or 6 hours to install tab headers on my 50 cal slip-ons. The bike is 2022 SGS. What’s ur take? Ps love ur Videos monkey man😊
Did you reuse the old header pipe gaskets? If new did you use aftermarket or oem?
His bike is so new, the gaskets should also be like new. In most cases you can reuse the gaskets
Exactly. The pipe came with new ones but these were brand new.
Did you swap the gaskets between headers and cilinders or not because you will be removing again for the cam? Or is it just not necessary? Thanks, going to do this to my bike next week 😅
The pipe came with new gaskets but the bike is brand new so I didn’t bother.
@professionalmonkey I would like your opinion I have a 2010 street glide stock 96ci with vance and hines power duals I have room for .45 cal and .50 cal which tab slip on would you think would be best!?
@@marshalltucker9469 the pipes are essentially the same, it’s cosmetics. It’s up to you if you would like the big 50 cal or the slightly smaller 4.5? They sound the same if that’s a factor…
What is that holding the saddle bags in the back ground
Homemade kit from a buddy.
Apparently everyone took your advice about getting hear pipes. Everything on J&P Cycle is sold out.
Can the chin spoiler be painted to have the rest of the design of the bike?
I’m sure it can, your I like the green blank area, it matches the backs of the bags, areas on the tour pack, etc.
I am in the market for slip on mufflers for my 1988 FLHS Harley Davidson Electra Glide sport and want to know what would be the best sounding mufflers for this bike. Thank you in advance. ~Mike
Hi! Your options are going to be a bit more limited since the bike is older. It's going to sound amazing no matter what since it's an evo. I checked on Dennis Kirk and it looks like they have a bunch of options from PowerHouse. I have never run them, but it looks like the reviews are good.
Did you say those Indian fish tails fit ... if so do they come in black ...?
Did you make the saddle bag holder? Thats on the floor?.
My buddy did!
Nice... I could definitely figure it out.. is it 1 in PVC.
Do you know when the headers will be out of stock? Interested in a 2-1-2 tab for my 22 SGS. Figured they wouod i form you. I didn't see it on their website brotha. Also, would you happen to have a discount code for your credit?
Sorry no codes. I’m not sure how many are left. If you go to Tabs website at the top there is a race use only section that’s where you’ll find it.
@@ProfessionalMonkey 🤙🏽 preciate you brother! Thank you.
@ProfessionalMonkey they mention why they're going to stop making them? I've tried calling and email but no response. Hoping they informed you. Did some research and can't find nothing nowhere not even in their youtube channel. Thanks bro!
Emissions standards jesus
So how was the packaging? What kind of box was it? Was it a brown box? What about inside the box? How were they wrapped?
Lmao!!!!!!!! Yeah. I don't get the whole unboxing crap. Just get to the goods. Great channel. Keep the humor!!! Sarcasm is the spice of life.
I will sing that song for you.
No Leesburg videos? Is it because I spoke to you in Gator Harley?
Ha! Nah, I was a bit under the weather and just didn’t feel like doing one.
I feel for ya, Been there, done that! You drank the water. Argh!
Why put the header on when it’s coming off again ?
Cause they were in different places and new in the box may have increased labor cost
I ended up putting drag pipes onto my bike louder than hell and i love to piss off the people around me
Warning! Graphic description of packaging. Nsfw
Don’t drink the shower water !!! Buddy or I guess you learned !!!🎉🎉🎉
Yes, and Montezuma is not your friend.
My moms name is Adriane. I spent a lot of my childhood listening to my dad say “yo Adriane!” Probably why she left him😂
Im #1!!!!!!!!!!!
Always!
What seat is that???
We’re still working on it. This is the first shot, it needs work.
@@ProfessionalMonkey is that a new advanblack seat?
@@blackedoutbandit it will be!
@@ProfessionalMonkey hell yeah
Are we there yet?? I want a seat with that profile and high lumbar. Looks perfect.
"So I measured for the 2nd time in my life. First time I was really disappointed!!" Lmao ☠️
You picked that up! 😂
FOR GODS SAKES MAN!!! GET A BIKE LIFT TABLE!!! lol
Doesn’t Tab come in a white box? 😂
And both measurements came out to 3-7/8? Heh
😂😂😂
MONKEY!!!! Which glasses are you wearing in the video??? I've been looking for some slightly yellow blue light glasses, and all I can find are "piss after a night of whiskey" color or clear....
Amazon cheapies!
Sounds like the fish tails are muffling the sound....if that's even a word...Haha...Spanglish???😂
Ha! I think it makes the sound sharper?
😢😢😢
