just bought 05 V star 1100cc only 12k miles.. it has stock exhaust š can anyone give me some guidance, suggestions or tips... Thinking slip on because im afraid of having to rejet carb for a full system. idk how to rejet carbš¬š¤¦. Thank u ā¤šš
I had Cobra Slash Cut full exhaust on my 1100. You don't need to rejet with just exhaust change, only if you do intake change also. Might need to turn PMS screws out some.

V-Star 1100 Wiki Knowledge Base - 3 Tuning carbs are set lean from the factory, a lean setting causes backfire on decelleration, the stock exhaust muffles the sound. it's not real load but can be annoying. turning the pms screws out will stop the popping. it's not hard to do if you have tools and are willing to learn how the bike operates. the forum is a wealth of knowledge.
This probably won't help you much since I have a different bike but I bought a Road Burner 2 into 1 for my 2016 1300 deluxe (EFI). I also bought a Arlen Ness Big Sucker along with a Cobra EFI controller (excellent support I should add). This setup was good for low end grunt but not so much for top end (long pipe, long baffle). I bought a stainless Danmoto 2 into 1 system with stepped headers and a short muffler. Man, THIS SETUP is excellent. Nice low end torque and superior top end. The Danmoto was cheap, like $300 CDN. Not sure if you can still get them.
I am in a similar situation. Purchased a 2007 v star 1100 with about 5000 miles on it, bone stock. I did a fair amount of upgrades including exhaust and opted for some Baron slip ons .
I had no issues with a full system, other than finding one at a good price. I eventually found the barons slip on for 300$ Canadian, which was a good price, so I jumped on it.
Slip on was a super easy install and I have to say I am very happy with it. Like 9.5/10. Super throaty and sounds great in all rev ranges.

1st-true/false.. I heard an engine needs back pressure to function properly
2nd- will i hv to adjust carb in any way.. I still haven't learned how to mess with the carb yet .... Ty for guidance
If you donāt know carbs, stay away from them. You can muck things up in a hurry and then have to pay someone to rectify the issue.
For slip ons, you do not need to have the carbs adjusted or re-jetted.
For a full system you āmayā require re-jetting. If you do exhaust and air intake (or just air intake) you will definitely require a re-jet.
These are Baron nasty boy slip ons I just put on. These are the best sounding exhaust (slip ons or full system) I have heard. I just passed up a pair of Hard Krome full system because they didnāt sound nearly as good.

Have a line on these for 350$ NIB. Anyone running them or have experience with them. I just rejeted for my barons BAK, so I am hoping I would not have to if I add some slip ons on my 1100. Would love to hear any input from the group here
