Default Sellers remorse.

I sold my 2009 Street Gide a year and a half ago. I have missed it for about that long so i bought another. It is a 2010 and has a Vance and Hines 2 into 1 exhaust and it looks like crap to see one exhaust under the saddle bags. I have heard that i could get a "dummy" for the left side. Anyone have ideas of where i can find one?

Thanks

Look into Ghost pipe by D&D yu may be able to go that route.I dont know if you can just buy the dummy.Maybe worth a call, but I'm thinking yu may have to buy the whole system.My bud has the set up and the bike runs well with the D&D .YMMV

So if you fake a muffler, where does it stop? Wouldn’t the pipe in front of the left saddlebag missing bother you? Would you want the mufflers to match? So you know Wal-Mart won’t have that?

Harley has used 2-into-1 pipes for longer than they have used 2-2s! So what you have is traditional - and nicer IMHO......

2 into 1 = no more scraping the left pipe on the curb, when you back up.

Some of us like the 2 into 1, but if you want to pay $400.00 for a fake muffler, they are available.

Live with it and let it grow on you. I have a Road King with 2-1 that I love and had another that I no longer have. Nothing wrong with different unless you are the cookie cutter type.
