I have given in to the need for speed and have ordered a fatcat for my softail much against the aestheics of my bike. After hearing Shawn and Al's and riding their bikes and feeling the power I instantly decided I needed one. I was going to let this be a surprise as I really like the old school look of the pipes I am running now, but anyone who knows me knows that I can't leave my bike alone. Does anyone else here rock a fatcat on their softail? If so have you had it dynoed? What kind of increase did you get and what did the butt dyno say? The funniest thing about this is that I run the tank shifter which was "supposed to slow me down a bit" in my mind. Here is my bike now. Opinions, questions, comments, etc.? Working at a shop is taking a toll on my wallet, that is for sure. Paychecks are converted into store credit. LOL. Nevermind the fact that Al's killer photo editing makes my bike look magazine ready.

I know. This will be exhaust #6 in 5 years. My friends all laugh at me as I change it so much. I can always sell it if it doesn't do it for me. LOL. Thanks for the compliment.
Thanks Jaydee. that is what I am hoping for. I will put it on, take it for a spin, change my map and see if I feel a Dyno run is necessary. fI will get it dynoed eventually, but am quite curious to see what kind of difference I will feel right off the bat.
Drew I have been looking hard at them also. I live near D&D and was wanting them to make me a fat cat system that was longer. Just like the look of the exhaust that is just as long as the bike. Long and Low is the way we roll.....
