None of the above. For me, for looks/sound and definitely performance, RB LSR 2-1. Good luck with your choice.

I like the D&D exhausts. I went with a black D&D Low Cat on my Crossbones... The Fat Cat looked like would scrape.

I love the look and sound of the V&H propipe. I also have a SE filter and a fuelpak for the mufflers on there at mo, so getting settings that I know work favours v&h. After the max stage 1 performance I can get without adjustable race tuners, cams, dyno’s etc.

But then very taken with the D&D fatcat though i’m not sure about the sound though have never heard one ‘for real’ . They seem to have a good rep on here. Although the rear cylinder downpipe seems to stick out awkwardly from some angles... again this is from photos’s only. The other downer is that they not that readily available in UK ..... they do look great and edge the v&h possibly?

The BIGGEST question is colour, swore I would get black but now thinking chrome is a possibility. I’m not trying to black out, just get a tasteful combination that heavily nods at (but isn’t pretending to be) old skool if that makes sense! Reminder of where I am at mo



Thought it might relieve the boredom to turn into a vote .....

Thanks for your feedback!

Whichever you go with, I just wanna say, your bike looks great. Pics are very nice. What camera are you shooting with?

I have a new video of the fatcat out of the garage that is loading on youtube. I'll spot it for those who were curious about the difference in sound when not walled in.

Well thanks Big Ted i am trying to learn to take better pics, funny that one was taken with an old 6mp Fuji point n shoot. I usually use a Canon EOS40D DSLR with a wide 17/40 L series lens which I am still learning the ropes on. There are some great photographers on here; though we all should have a whip round and get Drew a decent camera ...... knowin him he’d just spend it on parts though whaddya say Drew?
