Default Question for my redneck brothers
I have an 05 road king custom, my question to you fine individuals is this; has anyone made a redneck set of 2-1 pipes using the stock pipes by cutting that over flow pipe for the rear cylinder off and welding the hole shut. This by my eye would make it the same as a 2-1 exhaust. Any ideas would be great let me know if I'm right on or not even in the ball park. Thanks for looking

No, but I have heard of using the stock pipe to make true duals. I think it would work fine.

You also need to make an adapter to fit where that plug would go, so you could make a hot dog/bratwurst cooker.
