Default 2-1 Performance Pipe

It's hard to find a good looking 2-1 Performance Pipe that has attitude and will do the job. My 06 FXSTS has V&H Big Radius 2-2 and I don't like them so they have to go. They have to be top quality, a damm good snarl and look good, any suggestions?

Exhausts are such a personal preference that I'm sure that you will get 100 different views here.

For me, and I have tried a few, I am very happy with the Bassani 2 into 1 on my Breakout. Great sound, good performance paired with the other mods and so far a top quality product with no fading, discoloring etc. It's also an easy install.

Good luck....

Ran a LSR 2-1 Pro Stock on my FLHX. Loved it.

Ive had a few different 'performance exhausts' and a couple 2-1's. The best one by far has been the rb racing 2-1

Another one to watch is FuelMoto's 2:1 Likin this a lot lately. Looks very high quality and they know a thing or two too

I have had good luck with Vance & Hines Indy Outlaw Series 2:1. I like the looks too. Good gains on my bike.
