Default Big Radius on 18 Fatboy 114

Hello
Is anyone running Vance & Hines Big Radius pipes on their 18 Fatboy 114? I think they look pretty good. Any ideas on performance? I think it should gain a little bit. Don't want too loud, but right now it is Suzuki quiet.
Thanks Jim

I've not heard them but from the looks of the picture you better be ready to loose re locate your passenger pegs.. Looks like they would have to take them higher which would make it harder to mount the bike for the passenger.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing. Maybe just some Vance & Hines slip on's would do the trick.

I went the easy route... I got a set of Cobra slip ons (black).. Bike sounds great and didnt affect the pegs.. No performance gain but sounds great..

I have seen a few videos on youtube... I want to put them on my 18 low rider.. just waiting for pictures of someone elses! LOL. They do relocate the pegs a little, which to me is great b/c my only passenger is my 5 year old which cant reach the pegs where they are now anyways!
