Need opinions on 2-1 exhaust for 2012 Fat Boy Lo
I'll be back from Afghanistan soon and I'll be picking up a 2012 Fat Boy Lo. I want to go with a 2-1 exhaust. I'm looking for one with a moderate sound level because I have a new baby to come home to. I also need one that will allow plenty of clearance for saddlebags. I've been looking at Thunderheader 2-1 and Super Trapp 2-1 SuperMegs. I'm willing to consider others I haven't thought of or heard of. Since I'm putting it on a Lo ground clearance is also a concern. I'd appreciate any input especially pictures and sound level info. Thanks

Thunderheader and Supertrapp are both some of the loudest 2-1's out there. As stated above, the D&D Fatcat with standard baffle with give you a good moderate sound level and great torque on top of it.

I disagree on the Supertrapp. It is one of the quietest 2 into 1`'s available. My otehr chocies are the D&D fatcat or lowcat on a fatboy Lo. I doubt a fatcat on a low would never touch down. I scraped my fatcat numerous tiems on my regular fatboy. Whatever you choose hit me up for pricing as i sell all for a nice discount. DREW@DRVTWIN.COM

I have the D&D Lowcat on my 2011 Lo and I really like it. The only issue I am having is that I can't install the larger bags because the pipe turns up along the swingarm. I have a set of regular Softail hard bags I bought used from a guy and they will have plenty of room but I am not crazy about them because there really isnt much room in them. I do love the sound and performance of the D&D exhaust though. It is not really loud until you open it up and it sounds great.
