Default Fat Bob Exhaust....anyone?

Is it just me or do most guys that get a Fat Bob strap on the V&H short shots or big radius? I'm looking at going with a 2-1 like the V&H Competition Series or Pro Pipe. Has anyone seen these pipes on a FXDF or heard them? Are they loud? I have also been looking at the Bassani and Hacker Warheader option. Oh......and don't feel bad if you have the short shots, they look great, just like all the other ones.

I put a black ceramic SuperTrapp Supermeg on my fatbob. I wasn't crazy about the sound with the stock end cap. It was just too quiet, so I ordered the open end cap from ST. I gotta tell you, I'm really liking these puppies. Sounds great without ringing your ears after an all day ride, and they make gallons of horsepower.

Lot's of folks on here like the Thunderheader and Fat Cat pipes as well. Do some searches on the dyna forum and you'll find lots of opinions.

Thanks for the reply Ratbob, I did hear the thunderheaders were a great option but I'm not too crazy about the looks. I don't care for the really long pipe and tapered end.

Take a look at the bub's or reinharts Joe, they are loud , but not harsh like the V&H's.

I can't remember who it was but someone made a 2-1 using Fat Bob head pipes. Turned out nice, kind of made me want to get a set and do the same.
