RE: Ugly or not 2 into 1 FLHX

Should have a D & D Fatcat here this week. Removing the bars around the bags while I'm at it.
Can't wait and I think the 2 into 1 looks cool on a bagger.

But how much MORE would you be making with a FatCat, Road Rage, SuperTrapp, etc? For a guy who changes things as often as you seem to, I am surprised you haven't put one on just to see the difference.

I wondered about that myself since a 2-1 is a no-brainer for anyone who is really interested in performance as opposed to "looks first & who cares how it runs........"

DITTO that!

and....

Don't like it? Don't LOOK!!!!!!!!!

Exactly, & the only view bikes with duals will see most of the time anyway is the back end of yours as it pulls away.......

I like nice appearing stuff myself, but to me the performance has to come first & the 2-1 wins hands down in that catagory.

I have the V&H Pro Pipe on my 07 Ultra. I love theit looks. I don't like the back cylindery-pipe mess of the stock pipes. They're a bit louder than stock but not as bad as many others.

Let's be logical, rather than emotional for a minute. Let's say a Fat Boy or Wide Glide rider adds a 2:1 for the added torque and horsepower they deliver. Looks great, eh? If they then add a pair of saddlebags, does the bike suddenly become ugly, out of balance? It's not the Touring bike riders' fault that their bikes already come with bags. So adding a 2:1 pipe doesn't necessarily make it instantly ugly.

Now, if I can just convince the wife...
