MEAN SOUND!!! Harley 131 Tab Performance Full Exhaust on a Milwaukee 8

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 ส.ค. 2024
- My @harleydavidson 131 Screaming Eagle Stage 4 engine has never had the sound I really wanted from it. I have always been jealous of the wife's @TABPerformance exhaust on her road glide, so today the Scarlet Harlot get a 2-2 head pipe and 4.5" Bam Sticks with Zombie Baffles. In order to do this we also have to convert the stretched rear dominator fender and stretched saddlebags to a dual cut out for the mufflers to fit. Thanks again to our buddies at@Advanblack for supplying the parts we need once again!!!

Love my 50 Cal. TAB's. Thanks to you and Robert Simmons. Did not go with TAB headers, sounds great with stock headers. Glad I spent the extra for TAB's. Thanks again. I have video of mine on YouTub e
Changing the motor can alter the vibrational frequency of the bike and affect fasteners that were fine in the past. Adding a small weight near the screw will absorb/counteract some of the vibration and the screw will be less likely to undo itself. Or you can add a star washer or loctite.
You got your “hidden” mechanics working over time!
Hommie, it seems no matter how or why we get another exhaust after TAB, we always come back to TABs. Ditched TAB due to my cam build on my 17 SGS and loss of alot of low end. For my 21 RKS I'm so happy to have the 4.5" Bam sticks with the FM header, and God I'm so happy. Now onto your 131...DUDE!!! HOLY HELL SHES A MONSTER!! Looking forward to the next vid. Also, another option for bag lights...check out the kuryakyn tracer bag lights, got em on my Roadking and they are wicked cool! Routed wires on backside of bags too.
After watching a few of your videos and shopping around I put Tabs on my road glide special. I couldn’t be happier with them.
I am a huge fan. Great pipes and the people are great also
Found your page looking for an exhaust for my 22 ultra limited. Glad I found you. Good content. Thank you
I’m pretty excited today as you say, got my 50 Cal with zombie baffles, and I got to be honest with you, Mr. monkey I probably would not of purchased them without your inspiration and your videos. Friggin sounds awesome on my 2022 Stock street glide special. I’ll try to get a video out to you. Thanks monk! PS I’m in Canada Ontario. We got no bugs right now cause they’re all dead., a-bit chilly here.
Hahahahahhaaha I like it ..."I mmm gonna just start taking shit off".....that is how we do it. I like the emergency water bottles in the background...hehehe.
Much better it looks better and sounds better. I bet it makes more power. Great channel lots of fun also.
Sounds and looks much better
Back in the day I had a 2015 Dyna under warranty, had a bad top end noise sounded pretty bad, took it to the dealer, they fixed it in the parking lot.. header bolt just came loose… I felt like a idiot 😅
Looks good and sounds good
Nice swap. You embody the traditional HD owner by acquiring a shit ton of new parts, spending the day swapping, riding for a month or so, then changing! 😂 I enjoy being around indecisive Harley Scientists like myself!👍🏼💪🏼
Traditional HD owner pays out of pocket for everything lol
@@davidsizemore2745 You mean you don't have HD and other parts manufacturers just sending you thousands in parts every month? Me neither lol
@@rjohnson1771 lol right I wish. If I did I would have a stage 4 on my 2016 Ultra Limited by now. Instead we have stage 0.
Your right I put Tab 5" 50 cals on my 114 after watching you do the cvo
Dude! U ♥️ 2 muck about don't you! Great results as always.
So what do you do wit the “The Tip”🤣😂
Sounds good
Dude, that looks much much better. Good job.
Thanks!
HA! About 2 years ago I was headed home on my road king. Old 2000 twin cam 88. Thing started making a crazy noise. Had me thinking the spring tensioner let go.
Got it home and
start ripping everything apart and discover the Damn exhaust shield tab that the hose clamp goes through broke free and was allowing the shield to vibrate against the front cylinder header.
Since I already had part of it ripped apart I did the tensioners anyway. And lucky I did because they were worn almost all the way down.
That was good luck!!!
Nice setup now. Was before too though. Wish I had seen this video when it came out and heard the part about doing handlebars sucks... cause I to can confirm that now
I hate doing bars. Like, I just don’t want to do it anymore…
Another great video for future builds by my friends. Respect 👍
Thanks 👍
you need to do another Dyno run with the tab exhaust. I've seen a lot of people saying that tab pipes actually hurt performance numbers. it would be nice to see before and after numbers.
I have seen a lot of dyno sharts out there putting those rumors to bed. Would a 2-1 run better, yeah, but I want the sound, I am not chasing dyno numbers.
Yes your videos work.. Was debating the 50 cals but when u put them on your buds stock RG I was like yup getting them.. First long ride today with them through the White Mtns of NH and they sounded awesome. Got a few compliments on them as well.. Thanks for the videos..
Well man I'm glad you are in one piece and weren't hammered by that massive storm.
We know the un-seen mechanic is Mrs Monky 😂 keep up the good vids both of you
I had the same problem with my cobra pipe only I lost all the bolts at different times, I wound up jb welding them in which was working better then I decided to put a d and d 2 into 1 fat cat on love it. I wish I could have it tuned but I have a v and h FP3 and can’t.
St Pete Times Headlines…”South Florida man almost looses his eye to hurricane airborne amoeba”…
Just put some Cobra 3" slipons on my FLSTC mosty because you told us stock pipes make you sad lol
So your saying you have a screw loose? Lol glad you missed the hurricane.
Check out what Traveling Tall did with his system. I’m pretty sure his amp is in the fairing and I think the company was Hertz??? Anyway they took his factory radio added their amp and tuned it. Came out great. Can’t wait to to see what you do. Glad y’all are safe from the hurricane. Prayers for those folks in Ft. Meyers and surrounding areas.
I will never run another exaust again. I have a tab 2 into 1 into 2 with zombies. It sounds amazing. That initial startup just puts a hudge smile on my face. You know what I’m talking about lol. Has a great sounding roar while driving. Not too obnoxious though unless you really get on it.
I agree. You really decide how ridiculous you want to be. It doesn't have to sound crazy if you don't want to.
I have the TAB Performance products on my 19 CVO SG as well, I love the sound and performance. Looks like I am going to have to add the exhaust extensions on my system
Looks awesome with the duals on it Monk! I really do like the look of twin pipes out the back better than 2-1 or turn outs...
You and me both!
Yeah, I'll be getting a TAB exhaust 2 into 2 next spring... because of your channel lol! Custom dynamics yeah got those all around my bike... because of your videos. I looked at Wilbers till I seen the price tag holy crap ill pass and get Legends lol! I CAN NOT get the body parts from advanblack not much love for the older bikes (2003 Road King) they have a few things but not what I want.
I understand completely. I am NOT a wealthy man. If it weren't for the friends I have made at these companies I wouldn't be able to do this many videos. If I paid for all of this I would be homeless!!
@@ProfessionalMonkey Right after you pay the Mech lmao Ya know the one that "does the work" when you shut off the camera. I still can't believe ppl say that shit well not say they AINT GOT THE NUTS to say it to your face lol, so they type! I really enjoy what you do. Iam just thankful I found a content creator that 1 Is NO BS this is how I feel about products good or bad! 2 I trust your opinion every product or product line I have purchased has been just as good as you said it was. 3 Your funny as hell and you're really good at doing this and entertaining us is the Monkey Nation!
Haven't heard anything better than tabs yet. Amazing exhaust 👌
o you should hear a bassini big bore
@@roncoburn7771 i had one on a 2019 Fatboy definitely sounds good and loud. But my stage 2 glide is definitely louder with tabs and s&s head pipe
@@billiardbago7500 You had a Bassani Chris Rivas big bore 140 hp and up pipe on a fat boy ? I’m not talking about a regular Bassani this is a race pipe that Bassani makes and I’ll guarantee you there’s not a louder pipe not even a DND
Dude! You could open a parts store with all the parts you swap around on your various bikes! The duals look great on the 131!
That would be cool!
The exhaust tip extension looks like solid top quality to me.
I have pythons on my 07 Heritage but looking at some tabs for my bike. Wondering how it was sound on it compared to the python? Good vid as always.
Its not a mechanic it's a tinker bell lol, it escaped from Disney lol
Definitely time for a retune , my 131 is just as loud with 4’ DBX Reinhardts I thought you would give it a rev or two , and my header is a stepped Fulsac
Pipes sound awesome!!! Good work!!!!
Looks and sounds awesome.
I’ve killed 2 of the 4 RF speakers in my 2017 RG. Both on the right side.
Trying to figure out what to replace them with. Will following your stereo updated.
I have a 6 speaker RF set up. Uppers lowers and bags. The 6 speakers prevents me from blowing my speakers...and don't have your system set on speed control. The whole faster you go louder it gets will blow your speakers man.
@@mikepsly73no, I have the speed control turned off on my system. I changed head units in 2020, from the OEM to the Sony XAV7000. But recently noticed the right side speaker pop on certain notes and even moderate bass.
2010 Chevy equinox key fob asymbly
For your stereo options I would suggest looking at volunteer audio, talk to the owner Jay and look at the Hertz line of audio equipment.
Sounds awesome, the color looks the same as My road king. It is a stilleto red. Also looks awesome.
I just bought a new 22 fatboy and have been going back & forth about do I want to go through the pain in the butt of putting 4 1/2 risers....but after seeing the wiring harness u just pulled out I laughed and thought I have it made compared to u, lol. ordering risers now, lol
HA!!!
Glad you're happy with it. Personally myself would have went with a big bore kit from S&S. Their SS 475 cam kit is off the chain.
We have the 475 in my wife’s CVO. I wanted zero trouble. S&S is top notch but build up
Kits cause more problems than a crate motor.
@@ProfessionalMonkey SS been in the game a long time. However, you probably know more than I do.
With that being said I really hate how Harley Davidson pigeon holes you into their product with warranty's when they manufacture their bikes to pass all EPA inspections including California.
Volunteer Audio has some nice amp systems that go in the fairing.
Those tabs are going to scream! I have them on my 107 with zippers cam and I now ride with my tour pack on constantly to help keep my ears from ringing! But wouldn’t change them back 🤣
I seen this exhaust I almost put on my road king before I sold it that was a 2 into 1 single outlet oval under rear fender. Just sooo different than anything else I had seen and looked bad af.
She’s purrin real nice!
Another fine video, thanks for the insights.
I personally liked the look of the turnout. Very unique and stylish.
I was surprised that you didn't pick slash cut tips to match the lines of the saddle bags and fender.
Are you raffling off the turnout pipe for the org that shall not be named (or any other of the take offs like the RF stuff)?
I envy you for the possibilities you have to change the look of your bike whenever you feel like it. Well deserved as you worked hard for it so all good.
Ride safe 🤙
Thanks, bud. I tossed the pipe, it had issues and I didn't want someone else to have problems.
Hubby and I just wanted to say our thoughts and prayers are with ya'll. We wish ya'll all the best and hope and pray ya'll are all safe. Blessings from Alaska 🙏✝️.
Thank you. We’re all fine. The storm missed our part of the state completely.
@@ProfessionalMonkey wow..God was definitely watching over ya'll. TC 🙂
Yes...but it was a long way from us. We just got some winds ya'll got the whole enchilada!!! The population on the west coast of Alaska is nothing like you guys. The villages were ripped apart though. We love your videos you are giving us a lot of wonderful ideas. ❤️. Hopefully we'll have all out "stuff" done come Sturgis next year. Ya'll stay safe .
It's not an insect. It's your finger in that eye.
Almost any other aftermarket radio set up will put your amp in the fairing, including a true RF kit not the Harley RF kit. I would suggest looking at Volunteer Audio or Sinister Sound for that future avenue
I may be missing something, but Rockford amps were made to mount in the fairing & can have 4 stage 2 speakers, 1 per channel per Rockford. Unless you’re adding speakers to the bag lids in addition to your fairing, you shouldn’t need any amp mounted in a bag, should be in the fairing. Rockford’s kit actually comes w/ a mounting bracket specifically for that.
Yep, you missed that this was HARLEY's Rockford system. If you buy the stereo from RF it's different than if you buy the RF system from Harley. But, no matter what, the RF system costs 60% more than this one, and that's a deal breaker for a lot of people.
@@ProfessionalMonkey Makes sense from RF's standpoint; otherwise, how would they sell their own kits, right? It's good there are different levels of systems available for people. However, a problem I think we have in the motorcycle audio arena is the output of the alternator/stator though. 54amps (on newer HD touring models) isn't a lot, especially if you want something a bit more than an audio kit can bring you, but you don't necessarily want comp level. However, I wouldn't be surprised if there is an engineering limit due to the size restrictions. Relying on adding addt'l batteries is costly & just slapping a band-aid on the problem imo, but I digress. Good video though. :)
I didn’t wait until the dnd so you may have answered that question already lol
Audio, Cicda audio amp with dsp built in I put 2ome speakers in the wife’s Tri glide No amp sound 50% better than stock
Man I would love the sponsorship you have. Awesome bike man great collection too. Sadly my work comes first but I got a shopping cart full of Advanblack, Custom Dynamics and Rockford Fosgate for my 2010 street glide I honestly cannot wait to post more videos and get the project running
Looks and sounds good. Just curious did you tinker this much before you started your TH-cam channel? I couldn’t afford to do 10% of the changes you make.
I tinkered as much as I could afford. If parts cos weren’t willing to provide parts then no way could I afford to do this.
The dual pipes looks better to me and it sounds awesome
Making improvements to Nick's bike? Sweet.
I'm a giver...
Much better. That bike is the balls
Looking and sounding good
I love your videos, Mr. Monkey I got to ask you where did you get the tour pack wall mounting bracket. Thx
Amazon! That particular one is gone but this is the same pretty much: amzn.to/46E156u
Great video. Love my Tabs, but on a serious note I don't know if I would publicly admit to knowing Chris Fenus. 😅
Fair enough! :)
Definitely sounds good
Hi Monkey, Enjoy your videos, they are very helpful. Just curious where Country saloons is located, So I can meet-up for the Oct 22 poker run....
Jacksonville, NC
@@ProfessionalMonkey Thank you, kind Sir-Monkey.....
Sounds good, but looks soooo much better!
Sounds right. Waiting for the numbers.
Looks n sound great.
Looking forward to the new sound your going to add!
Working on it!
That look so much better now she really needs a cam now 😂
Definitely looks better with the pipes in the back instead of sideways..
If you buy a Rockford-Fosgate System directly from the Company and not H-D, the amp set up is in the fairing. Just FYI.
That's what I hear, but I just checked and the comparable RF system costs 60% more than what I did.
sounds so good
In person it's so much better. Camera mics just don't do bikes justice.
Are you still running the cat converter? It doesn’t look like it but damn that thing is super quiet. I just put a Vance and Hines head pipe on my trike and I had to get rid of the d&d Chinese knockoffs, they were to damn loud. I put 4 inch Rineharts and now it sounds wonderful but I also did a Woods cam and S&S cam plate and oil pump. Hauls ass now.
There's no cat in the Tab head pipe.
Reaching out in the comments sections of channels I watch. Has anyone had a problem with the bolts breaking off on the front light bar on the 2018-2022 Heritage? I've broken off two bolts now after having it repaired and actually had to buy a whole new light bar after the last one because he couldn't drill it out. Now after getting it fixed it fell right off after I parked it after a 100 mile ride. Never fell off during the ride but fell off and hit the fender. I've seen on the HD forum that others have had a problem. Just seeing if others have also. Not even sure if I want the bike anymore or not. Oh well riding season is nearing the end here in dreary old MI anyway.
I have never heard of that at all. That's a bizarre problem to have, and we used to have a 2018 Heritage.
Couple things…you being in Florida look at Soundz! They blow the doors off of everyone. 4 channel amp under the cowling. Perfect. Second…I’ve bought several things cause of your videos. Planning my next bike purchase cause of things I want to buy from your videos. Keep it up!
Soundz does a great job, but I am looking for something simple I can do myself and not spend a fortune.
Honestly, I never liked the turn-out look. Looks great now!
Everyone says you will lose power with dues but you
Can't feel it when you riding 😎and they look better 😃
It feel right to me!
Look at Volunteer audio. They will have what your looking for.
👍that color is amazing👍
Advice please. I had a cam bolt back out or break I'm not sure. Brought it to the dealer for a tire issue they said something doesn't sound right. Fixed it under warranty no expense, great dealer also, put all new Cam bolts in the cam plate? Not sure if something happened when they put it in originally it's all stock Harley stuff. Just never heard of something like this.
That is bizarre. Only think I can think is they didn't torque it right or maybe just a defective bolt?
Just a suggestion. When you're tearing down your bikes, get you a few cans of Biker Spirits cleaner and polish ( Amazon). Clean all of the Buffalo Chip dirt off your bike before you put it back together. Have the mechanic do it, lol.
2:39 - 🐿🤣🤣🤣🤣
130HP/140TQ - What's the gas mileage like now? lol
Ya know I can't tell much of a difference?
cool motorcycle - great entertainment 👍
Thank you 👍
Loctite for your pipe bolt?
Glad to see the junk Rockford stuff go. Look into soundz customz when you are ready for some good audio that the amp mounts in the fairing. I am enjoying your videos. Stuart.
Will you have to retune for the new exhaust? Lots of Yoga today! Woo Hoo! Nevermind, you answered my query. Kepp up the great work!
That's the plan!
Prefer the Duals over the short 2-1 turnout pipe; looks sweet! Very interested to see results from a Dyno Tune session with the Tab 2-2 (w/Zombie Mufflers) Exhaust compared to the Dyno results from before w/Cobra 2-1 shorty turnout. And, not just peak numbers at a given rpm but rather side-by-side comparison of the "Curves", specially the Torque Curve.
Should you decide down the road to upgrade the Cam in the HD-SE 131 Crate Engine, highly recommend the Cyclerama # 512 Cam which is specifically designed for the HD-SE 131 Engine. Expect huge (20-25 ft.lbs.) Torque gain (vs. HD 131 Stage-4 cam) from low-to-mid rpm, along with about 20 more hp. Thanks Monk!

You forgot the first step, run all the gas out to get it nice and toasty and fill it back up then your ready to take the tank and exhaust off lol
Just wondering why you didn't put on the 50 cal. slip-ons? I personally like the up-cut look with the stretched bags. Just my opinion and not bashing the look you have. It still looks and sounds really good.
I should have said in the video its because aftermarket rear ends don't have a big enough opening for 50s.
You should check out Soundz Inc in Florida…they do really good work….
You’ll see in the next video…
Looks better with the tips in back.
Agreed.
Great video!
Is it just me or is the right side Tab muffler tip sticking out farther back than the left side muffler tip?
Looks Sweet now.🍻👍
Good job,sounds good...sounds like a harley 😂✌️
Waiting arrival of my 23 road glide 3. Would the tab 50 cal slide ons fit?
Nope, you need 4" for a trike.
