Default Which cat?
Cant decide on a fat cat or low cat, need your guy's opinion. Its gonna be black regardless. Im concerned with how low the fat cat is and how it would cover up my new rear wheel. as for the low cat, I'm just not sure I like the upswept pipe.

Heres the bike in question, if you havent seen it...

I prefer the Fatcat also, but it WILL scrape, since you're slammed in the rear.
