    So the B does not have enough power???????

    Got to be for the sound only! I loved the way my 99 Valkyrie sounded--it had a sports car growl like a Porshe. The B has no noise but gear whine. I like that!

    I had a buddy with a loud Valkyrie-no baffles--sounded like a log truck with no muffler. That told me everything I need to know/hear. OTOH, I do love the sound of the 15's. Just a tad louder and sounds great.

    What is the difference with the 15's, just the muffler or other things including tuning ?

    Enginewise, it's just the mufflers.
    Other than that, (C)ruise control standard.

    Thanks, it appears 13/14 owners could use 15 OEM mufflers for a little more tone.

    I have done some You Tube searches on exhaust mods, and some guys are just drilling out the baffles on their stock pipes, some removed the cats. What I would like to know is there a certain configuration when drilling out stock baffle to get the best sound,how big of holes do you drill,p and how do they sound after the fact is it even worth it.
