Review:

I’ve been riding my 2023 Harley-Davidson Street Glide CVO for a while, always looking for ways to elevate the experience—and boy, did the ZARD “Maverick” Slip-Ons deliver.

Design & Craftsmanship
These slip-ons are pure artistry: entirely handmade in Italy from AISI 304 stainless steel, they feature a distinctive octagonal shape that flows perfectly with the sleek lines of the Grand American Touring series. The billet aluminum end caps are anodized and proudly badge-branded—touches that scream attention to detail

When I decided to upgrade the exhaust on my 2022 Street Glide, I wasn’t just chasing better performance—I wanted attitude. The ZARD “Maverick” Slip-Ons delivered exactly that. These handcrafted beauties from Italy are made of high-grade AISI 304 stainless steel and sport an unmistakable octagonal design that perfectly echos the sweeping lines of my Grand American Touring bike Weighing in at roughly 7.5 kg, the pair is about half a kilogram lighter than stock, which helped tighten the rear end’s feel just a touch. Once they were fitted, the power increase was immediate. With my 114 engine, I noticed about a +2.4 hp bump—just enough to give me a sharper pull during roll-ons and quick on-ramps
The sound is the real star. That deep, throaty rumble is classic Harley—but with modern refinement. It’s loud and commanding yet doesn’t drone at highway speeds. Heads turn, riders nod, and other drivers sit up and listen.

Installation was surprisingly smooth. The slip-ons fit snugly, and the instructions were easy to follow—took me under an hour, total. The chrome finish turned heads, though I wish I’d gone for the matte black Cerakote this time—something to consider for my next upgrade
One thing to note: if you're ordering internationally (like I did here in Ecuador), be aware of import duties and customs—they landed on my doorstep, and they weren’t cheap

The exhaust really lets the engine breathe better, providing a noticeable increase in power. I feel like I’m getting more out of every ride, whether I’m cruising down the highway or carving up some twisty backroads.

The sound is what really sets this exhaust apart. The ZARD "Maverick" Slip-Ons produce a deep, rich rumble that sounds amazing. It’s loud enough to make a statement, but it’s not overly loud or obnoxious. The tone is just right, offering that perfect Harley growl while still being comfortable for long-distance rides. I’ve had a ton of people comment on how good it sounds.

Lastly, I’ve noticed a reduction in heat around the exhaust. On hot days, the bike runs cooler, which has made long rides much more comfortable.
