Front sweep (road rage 3)

Road rage 2, rear sweep.
Some of the older front sweepers did. No problem with the rear sweep (road rage 2).

All pipes scrape if you're brave enough. This was a concern of mine so I went with the S&S Super Street on my Heritage. Still scrapes, but only on the outboard bolt that holds the baffle in. Touches the ground at the same time my floorboard does. I recently saw a Bassani on a LowRider S, looked like it was lower and would scrape sooner than my Super Street.

I have the RR2 on my 2018 Breakout and I have scraped it on a few occasions. Nothing major, a scrape about the size of a quarter. Going to repaint the heat shields anyway so doesn't bother me that much now.
