Default Bub 2-1 lakester info

I have bought 2 sets of bassani exhaust but i dont like the looks of one set and the other scrapes the road cause my bike is low. I have a 2010 WG with the burly slammer kit, front and rear. Ive been looking for another set of pipes to get but dont want to keep buying them and have them not work because my bike is low. So what im after is some feedback from riders that have the bub lakesters or other 2-1 pipes on very low bikes. Biggest concern is do they scrape, also i like the look on the lakester and bassani how both header pipes come forward and wrap the engine. I like the lakesters but think i may have the same issue with them as i do the bassani. Look forward to the input, thanks.

Thanks superfastglide, im not too concerned with scrapping on a sharp turn. My bassanis hit hard up front where the pipes wrap the engine, the lower pipe dips down and i scrape bad on right hand turns. My other set of bassanis that i dont like the looks scrape the muffler but only on sharp turns, im cool with that. I would like to stay with a 2-1 set up but most ride real low. I may have to go with a more conventional 2-1 set up where only the front header pipe wraps the engine.
