When I do replace it, ground clearance will be a deciding factor.
I found that I did not adjust the suspension preload on my 18 Fat Boy and was riding two up, I think this contributed to the problem. I love the look, sound, and performance of the exhaust.

Bassani RR was one of the first M8 pipes out of the gate for the new softails.
I don't think they realized how much better these new softails were going to handle, or how hard we push these bikes in the twisties.
All the used ones I've seen have scrapes on the bottom of the front pipe. Looks and sounds good if that is your end goal.

I like the theme on that bike, good mix of the original satin and new stuff - Are they original bars in Black from HD?
All the best
