I would love it if they sold a fishtail tip for it.

You'll almost always get more power out of a good 2-1, like the Fatcat, over duals. As far as loudness goes, it depends on whether you get one or the other with or without baffles. More power and better sound is the general claim on the Fatcat with quiet baffle, tho.

The Samson's without baffles will be louder without a doubt. With baffles I am not sure. I run the standard baffle in my fatcat with a 95" build and it sounds great, but quite different than the Samson's. I had Samson's on my ride a few years back and loved the sound of them without baffles but i felt I was losing a bit of low end torque with them. Eventually I swapped them out and low and behold, my bike became a rocket ship.

I am not saying your bike will not run good with Samson's, as it will. But for my need for power a 2 into 1 and a 95" build has really done the trick.

I still miss the sound of my fishtails when I hear a bike rolling down the road with them.

Is the Fatcat louder than the stock exhaust? Want something that is kinda loud and has a good performance gain. If the "Cholo" exhaust is going to get me tickets I don't think I want to mess with it. Long as cars around me can hear me that helps too.

D&D Boarzilla, the big brother to the FatCat, sweeps up some at the canister... See the picture in my Sig., installed on my Heritage.
