Default Can't stand the heat from my true duals anymore, but what pipes will look as good?

I love the look of my Samson True Duals rolled edge pipes, but I just cannot deal with the left pipe's heat anymore. I cannot back up after a long ride unless I want to be in severe pain, and I'm also tired of holding my leg out a mile away from the pipe when I stop.

yeah yeah I know it's all personal preference, but the guys in here have helped me with just about all the mods I have ever gotten, so I value everyone's thoughts and suggestions here.

What will look good on my bike?

How do you feel about a 2-1?

My exact same thoughts. How about a 2-1?

Some of us harley enthusiasts are biased towards symmetry thus we lean towards 2-2 systems. Once I tried my first 2-1 exhaust never looked back. Look good on you bike, I´d say a RoadHouse 2-1 pipe would look bitchin'.

Mimo.

Yup.... a 2in 1 that will extend to the end of your bag.

I like the Basani Road rage long.

I had a Vance & Hines 2-into-1 BP Pro pipe before, but it was too high for the bags, and it didn't look nostalgic. Was good otherwise.

Looks like Roadhouse closed their doors.

Will look at the Bassinis

Very nice looking bike

I had the V&H twin slash down 2into1 on my SG. Really liked the sound and the look. Not sure that would work or not.

I agree though, best bet would a 2into1 to get the heat off the left.
