Also, 14" apes are as tall as you can go with stock stuff but with tbars you're losing the stock riser (which I assume is 1", 1.5, possibly 2?) So you can get by with a little taller than 14" tbars bolted to the tree.
12" apes fit me perfect, as do 14" tbars so I assume the stock riser is close to 2".

well, i´m not even close to al the cool performance baggers in here but my project so far includes a 95" kit with SE204 cams, upgraded olpump, S&S power tune duals with White bros E-series slip-ons that gave me 82,4 bhp on the rear wheel and 127,5 in max torque. I allso put on a set of 1" lower Bitubo´s instead of the old air shocks and Brembo disc´s up front. For now i´ll just ride it and see what is up next maybe a set of T-bars...

anyone running the trask assault 2-1 or fuel moto jackpot 2-1?
trying to decide between the two.
Well actually, I have the FM sitting on a shelf waiting to be installed lol, but I found a killer deal on the Trask so I could sell the FM for the same $...I just don't know which pipe I like better.

I do like that the FM is full length, I don't need obnoxiously loud for long trips and stuff. I think the quality and performance is there according to what I've read. But, to me it kind of just looks like a stock pipe the way the header is.

The trask LOOKS a little more performance-oriented being shorter and stainless. But I've heard of some cracking? and being short I'm not sure how it is dyno-wise, and noise-wise?

Any experience would be helpful. Thanks.

i guess I should add a picture of what I’ve been working on...FXR division bars, JRI 13” shocks, drag spec seat, klock windshield, custom made front fender, short bags, paint/flames being done by me (@PugliaCustomDesign on instagram) about to be sprayed soon. Nothing crazy but ballin on a budget doing everything myself. Pipe and air cleaner change soon. Then rotors...floor boards....front suspension....cam...etc etc etc lol....

I'm partial to the FM Outlaw 2 into 1, as I've been running all last season. I like the sound and the performance suits my riding. The only thing I would change is that FM did not have the slash up to match the line of the bags, but I've grown to like the slash down.

That is a sick color and will look good. Mine is mild compared to most here but adding it in anyway. It's got some RWD shocks on it that you cant see. Still a long ways to go but it will be there one day.

Got the chopped rear fender painted and the reworked side covers. Painted porsche chalk color. Will be a few weeks before the tank and fairing get painted. You know how builds go, one part at a time. Need to powder rear rim black, change tire, do chain conversion and 13.5" rear shocks before doing front of bike

I'm really leaning toward a LD seat. I have a Corbin on my Dyna and really like that. That was expensive too. You get what you pay for.
