I agree a bigger muffler would fill in the space....But, I love the thunder header pipe so I guess I'm gonna have to deal with it...

Any ideas on a bigger muffler. I love the power and sound the thunder header puts out.

Good looking RG. I have 2 questions : 1, is the rear fender an overlay? 2, where are your turn signals?

I had the TH on my bike too, it has a bassy mellow tone for the most part. I went with a DD fatcat for the look and performance was equally as good. Its more raspy than the TH but it snarls when you roll off the throtle before shifting gears. Still grabs attention, quality is much better, and looks great too.
My bike ran like *** with the TH, its very smooth now with the D&D
Dyno is 100-100 with my build and gets avg of 37mpg at 70+ with pump gas.

Looks bad a$$! My only hold up with new bags is the want for 4" stretch and the fear of scraping the hell out of them. I rarely scrape floor boards. From the looks of the stretch on the bags however, they would hit way before the boards.

Any feedback on the 4" bags and issues with dragging them?
