Hey all, new to this page, coming from the sportster section. Can anyone recommend a loud true dual exhaust system with nice deep rumble?

Unfortunately twin cams don't sound as good as 1200's, but I think the rush duals sound great.

I have True Dual Thunder Headers with Xover and am very happy with them, but if I had to do over I would get the 2 into 1 with a false pipe on the left side.

Might be good idea to keep the kickstand from sinking into the blacktop but in the states with snow it could be pulled up by snow removal equipment. I would also pull it up to paint the parking lot lines.

I'm wondering how far the magnetic field reaches, anyone have some thoughts on that?
Same happening to me with one light. I called the State of NY DOT. Spoke to the engineer who sent a crew out to adjust the sensitivity and it works fine now. They even marked the area where the sensor was in orange paint. In NY if the light doesn't cycle green for you it is illegal to pass the red light.

Oh... ehemm.... Forgot to mention... For less than 3 bucks I bought one of the red laser fog lights, attached it under the luggage box, wired it to my brakes.... Paints a bright red line about 3/4 of the lane wide and about 5' behind the bike.... Looks cool... Makes me slightly more visible at night. Its a thin line, may add 1 more to thicken it up! Im pretty sure its not street legal, but Im willing to take the chance cause its all about safety !

I promise when I can see the damn pics, I will post one ...
