Default Advantages of True Duals?

Other than the fact that IMO true duals just look good on the Deluxe are there any advantages to going from the shotgun style to true duals?

I like the Vance and Hines ones are there other options out there?

It all depends on what you want to do with your bike. I couldn't put my axle nut covers on if I had the stock exhust, but they fit like a champ with the duals.

1.If you have a passenger, her boot doesn't get all over the stock upper exhaust pipe, which, on a Deluxe, is above the peg or footboard.
2. They look about 100% better
3. They sound good
4. They keep your left thigh warm in stop and go traffic when it's cold out.
5. Did I say they look like they should have been on the bike stock?
6. There is a weight savings as you remove about a 20 lb stock exhaust bracket and the right stock bag lower support bracket.

I heard the 2 into ones have better torque so i would guess that true duals have better HP.

you get the exhaust notes in stereo....I have TCC true duals on my Springer and love them but I doubt there is any power advantages..in fact I heard the opposite?
