Not a fan of fishtails. Don't like the look or the sound. Saw a guy get high centered going down the ramp of a ferry in WA. His buddies had to lift the bike to get him off.

I've been working on the bike too much and haven't been here.
I changed the exhaust around since posting this.
I had true duals...sounded weird. So I stuck on an aftermarket system with a cross over. Still habe the fish tails, with baffles. And they actually sound pretty good, to me. They'll serve for now until I find a good set of factory mufflers. I like the way those look, but these will do. They sorta go with the overall look of the bike
