Default Vance & Hines Pipes

My new 1200c is supposed to be delivered on june 3rd. I got the dealer to throw in new pipes of my choosing as well as air filter kit. I like the duke air filter kit as its black and simple. Was wondering what others thought about the pipes. Not necessarily looks but performance. I have narrowed it down to the following 2:
ShortShots staggered Black &
BLACKOUT 2-INTO-1

Thanks for your input!

I'm not a fan of 2-1's. My buddy had the shorts and I thought they were awesome.

I have the black out 2 into 1's on my 07 1200r - love um - sound good and performance is good - add some x14ieds with the breather and 2 into ones and you'll see a noticable difference...

love my straight shots and ness sucker- gotta do fuel management with that combo and mine is by techlusion tfi. the perfect combo imo- easy fuel settings and you can set it how you want it. set mine a bit richer than most, but it runs at cooler temps and my right hand is very happy now!
that and i love the look too

For real. Massively overplayed. Like a conglomerate on harley davidson pipes. Everyone who has aftermarket pipes has a set of vance and hines. I wish people would open their eyes and give some other companies a shot.
