Default 2 in 1 exhaust and leather pros bags

I have a ‘16 Streetbob with leather pros cordura bags and I’m thinking of getting a new 2/1 exhaust kinda tired of my Vance and Hines short shots time for something different. What brands are to avoid for burning my precious LP’s ??? Was looking at Bassani RR3, sawicki speed, TBR. Would 2/1 exhaust be more quieter than my short shots ???

Don't use the Bobcat without some serious extra heat shielding. They were the first pipe to lite the bags on fire because they are blowing exhaust directly at the front of the bag.

I have a rr3 and it has had no problems with my leatherpro bags. I do have 13.5" shocks though, so that does change a little bit.

the tbr has the least upsweep then the sawicki. use the proper heat shield under the bottom and it should be fine. i like the sound of d&D but cant for the life of me figure out why they point the damn thing straight up.

Not really. Think about it, the longer shocks raise the whole frame (except the swingarm) and both the pipes and the bags are attached to the frame. So it does raise the bags, but it also raises the pipes.

you're right. Between 50 hours at work a week and been spraying some bikes at night I need some more sleep, can't think straight.

Or get the D&D fat cat which is longer and will be under your bags great sounding pipe.
