Default Long Shots & Big Shots Long

I am buy stuff that I will be adding to me Deluxe this winter. So narrowing down the exhaust I will be getting. Orginally I was looking at the V&H short or long shots. But I have marked the shorts off of me list.

Now I have it down to the Long Shots or Big Shots Longs. Everyone here has an oppion so let me hear what yall think.

Also look at Big Shots Staggered.

Longs where to long and shorts where to short for me. Staggered where just right but... get what you like.

They look good but really what I want for my bike. But with my OCD I have to have equal length.

I would go with the long shots. One of my buds had a set on his last Fatboy and man did it sound and look great.

I put on the v&h big shot longs with the quiet baffles. I like how they looked on my Heritage and they have a really nice deep sound to them.

Big shot longs all the way!!!!!!
Look awesome, sound awesome, are awesome.
Big advantage over the longshots is the look, hate the over lapping join look in the middle of the longshots & the BSL's have a fatter diameter which to me suits the over all Harley appearance.
Also the added bonus of the power chamber giving the performance of a 2 to 1 system seals the deal.
I really noticed a power increase over the slip-ons I had before.
