Default New Deuce Owner

I finally pulled the trigger on my favorite bike of all time. 2001 softail deuce (Carbureted). Not much done to the engine other than an SE ignition, VH Straight Shots, Stage 1 intake, and synthetic overhaul. Tons of chrome and touring stuff added on though.

Now that I have the frame of my dreams, time to start the mods.

Firstly, Does anyone know of any pipes similar to the V&H Big Radius 2-2 or Hooker Troublemakers?

Thanks a lot guys.

I have a lot of plans in mind for this guy. Just starting with pipes and intake. I don't really like the looks of the straightshots so i was thinking the big radius look. For intake i'll most likely go with the K&N 63-1125.

My fav mod looks wise for my deuce was a chrome rear wheel, really shines up the rear end. Function wise it's a tie between the apes and the swingarm bag, they're both equally worth the coin.
