Default Softtail Stylin' Question

You guys have given good styling advice in the past, so...

How do you think a Supertrapp Supermeg 2 into 1 exhaust would look on a Vivid Black 2010 FLSTC? Thanks

As far as looks, I dont like the 2 into 1 on a softail. The performance would be better,
but you ask for looks.

I have the same bike, same color and I wouldn't go in that direction, but it's just me. It would be different though.

I've never been a fan of the 2/1. I like it on some standards and softies.

Cool. Did you do anything with the tail light bar when you took the bags off? Did you put chrome bolts in for the studs used for mounting the bags? I like the look and the option of being able to remove the bags when not needed, but have been unsure about how the light bar would look without the bags--afraid the stock light bar might look too wide and out of proportion.

The light bar is stock though I have changed the lenses to the clear ones, It is wide but I think the shorter one interferes with the bags when they are on. chrome bolts replace the studs when bags not in use.

fat cats look good in my opinion on standards.

The only thing about the super meg is that it is quite short and if you run with your bags on might look kind of funny. Get a Heritage fatcat. It looks like this.
