I guess, from a performance perspective, on a modified bike, the Patriot Defender is the way to go... but I can't stand how it looks... sorry...

It was D&D Bobcat for my bike...

I have a 2-into-1 from Sikpipes:



Also had the Vance and Hines 2-into-1 Competition Series exhaust before that:

Yes, Bobcat or RSD Slant for me.

I love my Vance 2 to 1 blackouts on my 1200, just wish they were a little louder.

Just installed an RSD Slant 2-1 to replace a cheap no-name set of strait slip ons... Love the look and the sound, and they were pretty easy to install.

Butt Dyno says it gained a little power, it pulls a bit better in the midrange...

I may try cutting the baffle like Hammer did to the tracker exhaust, to see if it's a little better... Kind of depends if I think I can weld it back together easily...

Also considered the D&d. But liked the stainless better

I'm running the Arlen Ness F-Bomb made by Magnaflow. I'm really happy with it, looks good, great performing with good midrange torque and sounds super. The install was real easy too. I'm also running a SE Super Tuner and an SE open stage 1 AC.

Those look pretty good! I'd be going with chrome if I got those. How hard was the install?
P.S. I like those floor boards on yours. You just gave me another idea. Thanks

The Sikpipes look good How hard was the install? They also look like they sit low in the picture. Any problems dragging on right hand turns?

I haven't seen these before I like the looks & info on easy install.
Thanks

Not that my opinion matters AT ALL, but I'm REALLY digging these 2 into 1's...

I remembered this bike from a couple other threads so I took the liberty to to snag these pics...
