Thanks very much Bob....much appreciated. Yep...been there, done that with the slip-ons gasket on the Vulcan 2000. Exactly as you said, I managed to nick it.....what a bugger to install. I'll be watching carefully this time !

I don't plan on doing the cat bypass. I just want a little better tone from the Touring, so leaving the cat sounds like the perfect option.

I also experienced the same symptoms you have described after the cat bypass when I installed Roadhouse slip-ons with a Thunder air kit and PCIII on the Vulcan. It was too loud for long trips (yep...I'm too old), and I couldn't get rid of the loud burble on decel even with assistance from PCIII themselves. It annoyed the heck out of me when engine braking.

Thanks again, Pete.
