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?

Welcome to the club! Love them deuces! I had v&h on mine when I got it, I've got rineharts on it now and absolutely love them. They get a lot of compliments, sound great. And I pulled the baffles recently, holy hell is this thing loud now lol
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.
