Congrats.... ride safe and be cool.

I run the V&H Big Shot Duals and love 'em. Very clean lines on the bike and has sort of a 'crackly' sound that seems 'old school' to me. They're smaller diameter which is a little different than you typically see, which I like. Good luck.

Congrats 2U on the FLHX - awesome choice!

As far as pipes - I prefer TD's on a bagger...something about the looks of two pipes out back appeals to me...JMO.

Well Steelcity, CONGRATULATIONS & GOOD LUCK with the new ride....
I looked and I read, and read, and listened to post after post while I tried to decide on pipes for my 2010 SG. Finally pulled the trigger on DandD Fat Cat w/ Ghost Pipe and unwrapped baffle and couldn't be happier. They sound and perform increadible...Just one man's opinion
