True duals....dynojet powervision...supertrapp slipons...

But your newer RK will have a little different setup than mine.

B&E has your Cat free true dual setup....Fulsac has them also.....and the other higher dollar aftermarket exhaust manufacturers...

there are really soooooo many options.....

good timing on the question....I bring my bags to a local leather shop tomorrow.....he will re-dye...seal and polish them for $20 each. Says they will look like new.

(He is also adding a little fringe to the lid edges for me..not too much though...)

I just clean them with a good leather wipe style cleaner...

Dude....I clean my bike real good about every two weeks...can't stand riding such a good looking bike dirty.....lol

That's why they make ghost pipes.
I've got V&H's big radius 2-2 on my king. So that's no pipes under my bags.
