Cant see a 2 to 1 improving the looks of your beautiful bike Marsh. Just a few more cents.

Your bike, your rules ,but I would not put a 2into1 on that bike. It looks great the way itis now. I just personally think a 2 into 1 would take away from the classic/nostalgiclook it has .

Here is mine.

Vance & Hines Big Radius 2 into 1. I love them. They sound good, and not quite as common as the other Vance & Hines 2 into 2...

If you want looks keep what you have. If you want performance go to the 2 into 1. Python makes a good looking and performing 2 to 1 at a reasonable price. With that said the HP and torque gains will only be in the 5 to 10% range at best. The bike does look great as is.

I think your bike looks great the way it is now. If you are really hard up for a 2-1, I would find one that keeps your flowing lines as they are. That fishtail 2-1 would look pretty cool. This is just my BS opinion, but I feel like the lines on the Vance & Hines and Reinhart 2-1 don't flow very well for a classic looking bike like yours. It's the abrupt bulge from the collector to the muffler that they have that I don't think would work. They seem better suited to a modern styledperformance bike. Maybe a RB Racing or else Thunderheader would work, but it would still be acompromise in looks inthe name of higherperformance. I have a custom exhaust in mind for my bike thatI think would look way cooler, but I love the sound andperformance of my Thunderheader. That's just my 2/100.

Marsh,

Took longer than I had hoped but here are a few pics of the Heritage with new bars, fuel filler cap and low profile console
