I have the long shots on my Deluxe. You will get used to being careful on right turns. You would have to lean pretty far to get the exhaust to hit to the point it would take the load off the wheels causing a crash. You must also watch pulling into the street from a slightly elevated parking lot as it will catch the pipe.

I dont have floor boards and my heals touch sometimes while cornering, this gives me a bit of an early warning before something more solid touches, have just fitted V&H Slip-Ons but as they are smaller diameter than the stocks I dont think they will be touching

Every day, the pipe will grind off long before it will lift the bike.
