Question about exhaust on a Dyna
I have been looking at pipes from Vance and Hines while coming up with my build for a 2014 Street Bob. I am interested in the Big Radius 2 into 1 and the Pro Pipe 2 into 1. I saw the note on both JPCycles and Vance and Hines websites saying that the passenger pegs will need to be removed for mounting the Big Radius 2 into 1. My question is after the Big Radius is mounted can the passenger pegs go back on? I have seen the pics on the above website and they look like the pipes allow enough room for the pegs.

When I was considering these pipes for my Fat Bob I emailed V&H and a couple days later they told me that an adapter was provided with the pipes so that the right passenger peg works. Foot will still be very close to pipes, so need to be careful.

V&H Big Radius 2-1
There is a spacer that raises the passenger peg mount up about 1/2 an inch to clear the exhaust. My wife hasn't had any issues riding two up with the exhaust installed. I included a pic that shows the relocation of the passenger peg.

Also you might want to consider that the ProPipe baffle is not a straight through design. This is probably why it is not as loud at idle as some of the other 2-1 pipes I've seen and heard. That wasn't an issue for me. I was more interested in how the ProPipe looked on my Fat Bob more than anything.

I had those on my 2010 wide glide. They are nice but I am looking for a 2 into 1 pipe.

The big radius is a cool looking pipe but I think you will get better sound and performance from the pro pipe and no clearance issues. Plus it won't blow dust off the pavement and dust out the guy behind you...I've seen it happen a couple times on a dirt road.
But of course the propipe is my choice because thats what I have. Isn't that the way it works here?
