Default Boarzilla Exhaust

Does anybody run one of these? If so how do you like it. Doing a custom build and had a fatcat on my softail, engine builder recommends going with the boarzilla or having him build a custom exhaust. If you got one could you get me a rough estimate of the length on that beast? Called D&D and they thought I was crazy. Just need to ensure clearance. Thanks

I don't see the gains of a new exhaust or custom exhaust being worth the money over the d&d fat cat exhaust. D&d used to sell high cfm baffles for big cubic inch builds. It would save a lot of cash over a new exhaust or custom built one.

The D&D Boarzilla exhaust is made for engines that have a LARGE displacement. Think 124" and up. Everything else, the Fatcat can handle just fine.

I have the boarzilla on my 2016 Fatboy S with the 110 SE motor. I had the bike tuned with the SE race tuner.

I LOVE this exhaust. Sounds great and I picked up +20% hp and torque from 3000 to 4000 rpm. I now have 109 lbft of torque at the rear wheel.

I would definitely consider it. You can also call up D&D. They were very helpful when I called them before my purchase. Plus their exhaust has no cats.

is there any way you can get me a measurement from the front to the tip of the exhaust....D&D laughed at me when I asked and said that the only way I would get this measurement is if they put an exhaust together which baffled me and they didn't seem to enthused on doing this. i figured they would have some basic measurements because it is built in house. I just need to know the overall horizontal length from the front head to the tip so I can get a simple dimension if this will fit and look properly on this custom built frame. Thank you very much.
