How much of the total exhaust do you think comes out the left side as opposed to the right on a springer classic. The reason I ask, is I have a stock header, and I want to eliminate the left side. It's only a 1 inch branch that comes out at a weired angle. I shouldn't think that more than 20% goes out that side. I have not had it on, or i would check myself. I'm gonna hang a SE slip on on the end of this set up. I'm going for the retro 2 into 1 look, and I don't want a left side pipe. So I'm gonna just cut off that branch piece and weld a patch on it, and give it a try. If it sucks, I'll just do something else. I don't care for the look of the Roadhouse 2 in 1.

 

A friend of mine put Rineharts slipons on his . The right side tip paint burnt off and the left side stayed the same. Like you he figures most goes out the right side.

 

Yeah, it's about an 80% right/20% left split.

A lot of people take a small patch and make the stock headers either a true dual system or a 2-1 type system, depending on where you weld the patch.

For me, get rid of the stock pipes and go with an aftermarket system..........it will work better.

Thanks. Yeah I know an aftermarket system is better, but I don't like the looks of any of them, and one of the reasons I'm doing this is there's rumblings here in Marxachusetts that there's gonna be a Denver style law coming down concerning MC exhausts. I've got Big Shot longs on it right now, so I'll probly run those this year. I was kinda just wondering if anybody ever had a 1 3/4" two into one header on there 88" and what it ran like with that on.
