Trying to decide between the two for my FatBoy Lo. Anyone with pics of the LowCats on their bike. You don't see too many. The increased clearance and slight upswept look might be what I want.
With a low I would recommend a lowcat if you are concerned about scraping the fatcat. A lot of it has to do with how and where you ride. I find the only place my pipes get close or scrape is in twisty mountain roads (which I ride weekly). Seeing taht the lo is already lowered 1" from the factory, lowcat. However, I like the look of the fatcat better.
I went with the Fat Cat, because I didn't want the hot exhaust from the upturned Low Cat to exit toward the bottom of my saddle bag. Thought it might cause damage to the leather.
