Default Stage 1 Exhaust feed back help.

2015 Fxdb



So I've been searching through old threads but still need some help from more experienced riders out there.

I have 3 pipes in mind with performance and scraping my tops priorities. I scraped so bad on my stock pipes I ripped off the hose clamps on one muffler :-/

1) thunderheader: awesome pipe concerned about scraping the muffler
2) rsd slant: love the look concerned about power
3) big bear choppers: concerned about lead time and power

Call Fuel Moto. Great deals on ceramic Jackpot exhaust. They have a package deal on tuner, air cleaner and exhaust. Great customer service.

The Thunderheader exhaust are awesome, but will scrape. Can't speak to your other picks, but I'd say it will be about the same. The fact is a new/better set of shocks are needed to gain clearance for aggressive riding.

Thanks for the heads up. I put on a pair on v rod shocks to help and I don't scrap as bad but I still need something with better compression!

I have the Bassani Road Rage 2-1 and although I do love the sound and the power gian. if I had to do it all again I would go with the Two Brothers Comp - S. A few buddies he them and the build quality is amazing, the sound is awesome and the look of the exhaust is badass. I love the shorty with the carbon end cap.

Your bike looks badass in your signature... I have looked at those pipes online and I had a guy with one cold start his bike for me so I could hear a few revs. Sounded great and doesn't look like it will scrap.

I just haven't found much feedback on the power comparison with two bros. Care to share 2nd hand experience? thanks

After looking into the 2 bros more, I think this might be the pipe for me.
