i had 2-1 big rad on my 2014 breakout and got defected after clearing defect with stk pipes i fitted 2-1 big rad to make bike quieter
which of the 2 are best for power and a stage 4 kit ?
I have the V&H Big Rad 2-1 feels better down low than the V&H Big Rad 2-2 hard to tell at high revs though
2-1-2 are the go , the x pipe system , the one i trialed here on bike worked well ,
Not many choices for breakout wanted something custom looking and not mega loud cause i got defected with my V&H BR 2-2 hence why i put the V & H 2-1 other choices are
2-1 bassani road rage V&H Pro Pipe
2-2 bassani sweepers bassani pro street turn outs or bassani straight (simmilar to short shots) my old V&H BR 2-2
Tried bassani prostreet turnouts Ando ? Do they make more power than the v&h big rad 2-1 ? Have they got crossover ?
Mate, stock headers with S&S slip on mufflers will keep you happy, sounds like a harley should and not overly loud. This combination makes good power all through the rev range and is great bang for your buck, have fun!
I ran 2 into 1 , for a while, like has been stated 2 into 1 low end torque but no high end torque , 2 -2 takes over in Torque 3,500 & up ,
i knocked 5 tenths off my quarter mile times & gained 12mph trap speed just taking the 2 into 1 off putting stock headers back on with sonic slip on's ( like cycle shack but made in Aussie )
Harleys have not changed much, basic engine design still same, car men try car tricks but they don't work with Harley's. a wise old Harley tunner once said when asked about best pipes for a HD, he replied " too much education in Harley pipe design & the power goes south, simplest still works the best "
so like was posted stock headers & a good set of slip on's.
