I have a 2015 V Star 950 with Vance and Hines Slip-On Exhaust. No other mods. You're right when you say Slip-On's are "tingy". Mine definitely at certain RPM's becomes very tingy, raspy and almost like a weird loose/rattle sound lol. I love the way your entire setup sounds and I would love to duplicate it exactly! If you don't mind, what exactly do you have? 1) It's the Full System Cobra Speedster Slashdown exhaust yes? 2) Did you add a Fuel Management System or a Fuel Processor? 3) Was it easy to install or did you have to fabricate some parts? 4) Does it still backfire like crazy like with the Slip-On's? 5) Any problems with over-heating or loss of power or spark plug fouling or horrible fuel economy? 6) What happens to the factory installed O2 sensor? 7) Did you add an air intake? Thanks for your time Sydewayz Stan and a reply would be much appreciated!!!!!!!
gob2003 1. Cobra slashdown full exhaust 2. Power commander 5 (fuel only) 3. No fabrication needed, but it is a tight fit and takes some time to get everything lined up 4. There is a slight gurgling sound on decel, not really much "popping" 5. No problems. Fuel economy is about the same 6. O2 sensor is swapped over to the new pipes 7. I have the cobra powerflo intake. The intake made the huge difference in the top end and makes the bike pull over a wider rpm range. ENJOY!
Josh Miller I didn't notice a big difference with the pipes and tuner. I actually noticed quite a big difference in the top end when I installed the intake.

good video of the ride, exhaust and simplistic point of view. thank you
Thank you
Great video, I'll be going with these over the Vance and Hines. Thanks!
Got the same ones and they sound awesome , way better then the V and H
Sounds good. Nice and meaty.
So I'm not the only one that looks for 6th gear on my 950? lol :)
Dan Metz I have a ninja 650 and I'm more familiar with sport bikes in general so I always am looking far a higher gear haha
My 950 has the cobra slip on. I think i like the sounds of the slash downs alot better!
The full exhaust sounds awesome. The slip ons have a "tingy" sound at certain RPMS
Me too,but love the bike

Did you notice a big power gain with the upgrades?

what the rpms at highway speed with the 950? thinking of buying one
Runs around 3-4K at freeway speeds. It’s a well balanced motor and likes the high rpms. It’s a great bike
This is the sound of my V-Star 1300 with Cobra Dragsters. Both the 950 and 1300 sound pretty damn good.
