No problem. I see from your picture that the ghost pipe goes under your bike. On mine it goes under the seat area.

Ghost pipe just adds weight. It is purely for looks

Nope, if you look under the bike you can see where it dead ends. Not the greatest design but its really not noticable unless you're looking.

I can totally see someone wanting the dual look on a bagger, I would. I am wondering that after a few miles, won't you have a nice clean, carbon free pipe out the back on the left and a discoloured one on the right? Going all black might be a better choice.

Nope we just spray paint the inside of the ghost pipe with flat black paint. Problem solved.

Great idea...looks of a TD bagger + performance of 2-1 and even adding the soot. I'm betting a few ghost pipe runners will be painting away as well.
