Need advice on an exhaust system for my 114. I was hoping for the mini grenades but those seem to be back ordered everywhere. So, I'm looking the the TBR or Bassani. Any input is welcomed!

my input would be to wait and get what u want. The grenades won’t be back ordered forever. But if u can’t wait I love the look of the Bassani radial sweepers. I would have them if they would work w my setup.

I just installed the TBR on my 114 Breakout...impressed with the quality and the sound.

I looked at those but in my opinion those would look better on an Iron 883 rather than a softail. Just my opinion though.

At 10K miles, the front tire is at 5/32" and the rear is at 6/32". The front tire is scalloped on the left side severely, probably from my trip to the "snake" last week. The rear tire is squared off a bit but it still looks okay.

This should be obvious, since the Fat BOY has a 240 rear tire and the Fat BOB has a 180. (It wasn't obvious to me!)

Fat Boy: 36500114 INNER PRIMARY HOUSING WITH 60328-98B (WIDE)(BLACK)
Fat Bob: 36500104 INNER PRIMARY HOUSING WITH 60328-98B (BLACK)

So when you do a primary oil change, use 36OZ, not 42OZ.
