Not knowing a lot about pipes I am considering 1 of the following;
Samson 2 into 1 pipe Powerflow II Black Part#: C2-212B www.samsonusa.com/products/sfID1/144/sfID2/319/sfID3/177/productID/761
or the
D&D exhaust 549-31 - 2009 - FLH "BOSS" 2 into 1 Pipe - Black www.danddexhaust.com/catalog/2009/01/54932.htm.
Any comments on either would be appreciated, they are going on a '09 FLHT with stage II, 103 kit and 255 cams.
Thanks
Bob
Shit how did that happen?????????????????????? VERY BLUE !!!!!!!!!!
Scotty I see your running a 103 with a 2 into 1.
What brand and model is the 2 into 1? and
Do you have any heat problems from it, ie: on your upper legs etc?
Bob:
I'd like to throw my $.02 in by saying after being a big fan of Tru Duals, especially on a bagger, I broke over and purchased a FatCat 2-1. Have to say the fit/finish/quality was excellent. And the bike seemed to run pretty well; though I never had it tuned by a professional with a Dyno.
After 2,000 miles, I just couldn't accept the different sound that the 2-1 produced. Not a bad sound by any means; just a different sound that I never could enjoy. Even purchased the Quiet Baffle hoping to bring back that "harley" sound I was so accustomed to. Well, it didn't happen. But I fully realize sound is so subjective and there are many riders that truly love the 2-1 experience. One problem I had with the design of the FC was that the rear header sticks out quiet a bit, and when stopped with my feet on the ground my right leg was always touching that rear header. And my passenger's right boot was always leaving toe marks on the heat shield.
So my recommendation before commiting to any 2-1 would be to listen and pay close attention to a bike that has one. And if that is the direction your headed, you won't go wrong with the D&D FatCat.
Hope this helps!
I have had a look at some True Duals, the ones I really like don't come in black (V&H) so I am looking at these Samsons:
True Dual Crossover Head Pipe Set Black
