You'll get lots of opinions on what everybody likes best, but as long as you stay with a good 2-1 pipe (VH ProPipe, Thunderheader, Supertrapp, D&D FatCat, and several others) you'll get good performance. The only way to know which will perform best on your bike is to buy them all and dyno test them. Probably not real practical. The second best option is probably the Supertrapp, because of the tuneability factor. Personally, my bike has a FatCat.

All the above pipes are great pipes. I run a vance and hines pro pipe and love the sound and performance and it was about $650 delivered.

As long as you get one of the above 2-1 pipes you will be happy. You want a 2-1 pipe for the best performance.

I'm thinking SuperMegs but not a fan of how the ends look, not that the pipe looks terrible, but I don't wanna walk up to my bike everyday and be like yeah this looks great but...will the end caps for the slip on mufflers for the SuperMegs fit if you get the full system? I assume they would, but when you assume...

Unfortunately, no those tips only fit the slip-ons and Kerker 2-1 system, which is the non-tunable version of the Supermeg. But here's what my Supermeg looks like with the black open end cap. I think it looks pretty good, not that I really care what the end of the pipe looks like.

Gotcha... well I think I'm gonna go with Chrome Thunderheaders. For the price, performance, and aesthetics, I really like them the best. Thanks for all the input guys!

I have the Kerker SuperMeg. Sames as the SuperTrapp SuperMeg just without any discs. The Kerker has a real low rumble and has great performance. Either Supermeg will flow well and are awesome on stock motors and even get better with any motor work that increases flow like cams, head, ....etc.

Over 40 years of winning races should say enough of SuperTrapp's performance.

i ran the thunderheader for over a year and it was the worst pipe ive had, just my opinion on it. there are better pipes out there for all around power but what do i know, i only ride every day and have tried multiple exhaust setups.
