We are working on the final pieces right now. I am guessing I will have something out to you in the next two weeks by the time we get through fitment testing and get all the finishing done on the pipes Thank you for helping us get our product out in a timely manner for the riders.

Your very welcome guys. I was approached by Jeff the parts manager at SCHD asking me if I would be willing to help. I said sure, bikes up on the lift for the next four weeks anyway.
Glad I can help....

Guys,

It would be great if you could post any "teasers" or specs, photos etc here even if only as work in progress. I think there's going to be a lot of people looking for exhaust systems for the new Fat Bobs and we'd love to know what you are thinking....

We will get something out soon. The pipes we received and are working on first are for all models except Fat Bob. We are also soon to have something on the Fatbob, but are waiting on the takeoffs to get that started. They will likely be more like 4-6 weeks out.

I don't want to be the first though as I live in the UK and sending anything back would be a royal pain in the ***!

Can someone else go and buy one so we can see what they are like ;-)
I'm first on the list for their LSR 2-1

Good choice!

I think that will look great on your Fat Boy - but won't work at all on an M8 Fat Bob.

On the other hand, I think this would look great:

https://www.rbracing-rsr.com/lsr21prostock_cat.html

"A pure LSR 2-1 Pro Stock Challenge pipe but with some sound attenuation and a RPV Technology Racing Catalytic Converter to knock a few decibels off the normally wide open LSR 2-1 Pro Stock design. This allows you to run a full race LSR 2-1 Pro Stock Challenge system on the street. Not quiet but clean. Here with Dual Coat Black exhaust and full black heat shields."

It's a shame their website is so poor and customer service is non-existent. But - I have one of their Pro Stock exhausts on my Shovel and it's great. Perfect workmanship, delivered when they said it would be (8 weeks). Worth paying the money and waiting the time for.

They just don't seem to want to get into discussions about things you want spend the best part part of a grand on. It's just "Here's what we make, take your pick....but don't ask any questions"

All that said, I would buy another of their systems in a heartbeat. Have been holding myself off placing an order for the last couple of weeks. Softly, softly, catchee monkey....
