Just bought a 2010 Roadglide they came with a 2-1 pipe for that  year. Like to find a slip on muffler that works well. Bike is stock and may have some minor upgrades later.

IMHO

Save your money on the slip on muffler & buy a reputable 2:1 system of your choice that performs. Plus it will one less expense down the road when you do your upgrades.

I'll second that, worst pipe HD ever put on a stock bike.  Either save your money for a new 2-1 or pickup a take off 2-1-2 off a late model bike and get some slip ons. As I recall the center bracket for the cross under is even in place already.

Can you be more specific why stock pipe is so bad? Vance and Hines ,Cobra a few other make a slip on muffler. I have not spoke to the tuner I use yet on his recommendation. My Softail has a White Bros. E series pipe very good pipe with my 95  Headquarters build. This bike thought maybe just a air breather and pipe and ride it.

I have a 2010 FLHX with the OEM 2-1 head pipe (gutted), 4" Rinehart slip-on and TTS tuner. Initially I spent a few days Vtuning and for the past 5 years the bike has run great.  The bike is very smooth at all rpm ranges, absolutely no surging, and NO popping.  However, I agree with others that if you are looking for peak power this will not compete with a good after market 2-1.  Works for me!

I dont know if the new fuel injected bikes will respont the same but I installed a set of slip on mufflers on my 2004 with a stock head pipe and it made a big difference. It was a Thunder headder  mufles.

It has one 1.75" outlet instead of two.  Good at near stock power levels.

I tried and tried to make one of these work.
Decatted, modded the collector, swap muffs and baffles and packing...
The problem is that with the single 1-3/4" outlet, it doesn't matter what you do on the header or collector or the muffler, that tremendous bottleneck is still there.
As far as mufflers, the 2:1 uses a muffler that's 4" longer than the 2-1-2s.
You can use the nightstick supertrapp or the stock muffler OR, you can buy the 4" extension on eBay then you can use any one of your favorite bagger slip-ons.
You'll never make it perform, though.
For reference, the collector outlet on all the 'real' 2:1 pipes is 2-3/4 or larger.
