Default Anyone recommend for aftermarket exhaust on 14fatboylo?

I was think about Vance+Hines 2-2. Any other exhaust out there? Not too loud btw.

Anything that comes in black. To many choices to list. Go to a local event and have a look and listen to different exhaust.

if you don't want loud. then maybe slip ons might be the ticket for you. if not you have a ton of choices and can always run "quiet" baffles. but they aren't so quiet sometimes. start with what style you like first then you can narrow down manufacterors that make that style.

What type are you looking for? 2 into 1, duals, etc. Slip-ons might just be the ticket too, but they can be loud as well. This thread has great uploads of all members exhausts with video. Of course the sound wont do the exhaust justice, you can get an idea.

V&H Super Radius, leave the baffles in. There's a video of them on their site. I love mine with the baffles out but that'd probably be too loud for you With the baffles in they're not too loud though give em a look see.

I have a '14 Fatboy Lo and I have decided on the Vance and Hines Big Radius 2 into 2 for my bike. I like the way they look and sound; I got to listen to them at the dealership on another FB Lo. I am not sure if you will find them too loud or not but in my own opinion, they sound great. If you are still on the fence, hit up YouTube, there is a million vidoes with all different types on there. Good luck

The V&H website has videos on most of their pipes and the way they sound. Kinda hard to tell but better than nuttin.

My dad has a set of RCX-haust black slip-ons on his Fatboy Lo, and they look nice and sound great. I had a set on my Slim before I got my RSD exhaust. I think they're one of the best sounding slip-ons on the market.

If you want a full system, any 2-2 will be loud, even with quiet baffles. You may also want to consider the 2-1 systems from D&D, Supertrapp and Bassani. There are thousands of posts about this. Just do your research and attend some bike events.

I'm actually dropping mine off tomorrow at Chaos Cycle for a custom made exhaust. Can't wait to get it back.
