Have a look on the Tasmania Ride Topic. Ralphski has a 2 into 1 on his soft tail springer. Not a fatbob I know, but you get the idea. He might chime in with the good and or bad news
I had a set with the short mega on my 2010 Wide Glide..Make good power but a bit noisy for my old ears and they don't make a quiet baffle (or they never used to)for the short megaphone..I had the one that wrapped around the front of the cam chest and the bottom pipe did scrape a little. I also had a few issues with the finish on them but not much I could do as they were sent over from the states..
I have one on my low rider S.
Performance is unreal as you would expect from a 2-1. Sound at idle is tough, but not stupid loud like an unmuffled 2-2. Same for putting around. Loud enough for cars to hear you coming but not what I would call "anti socially offensive"
When up it though, F^*k me sideways it sounds good. The stainless without heat shields yields a tad higher pitch than your normal exhaust. I absolutely love it.
Never had issues scraping as I'm on 13.5 inch ohlins, if they scraped it's because the bike is sideways into a guard rail.
It looks great in raw too.
I think you will be happy with them, should definitely notice a low end torque increase with a 2-1 and appropriately tuned.
I never really liked 2-1 noise until this pipe came along. It's got some mongrel about it.
I've got the Road Rage on my 19 Street Bob. I don't feel like it's as loud as everyone makes out but I'm very happy with the performance. My bike isn't lowered though and it scrapes quite easily, haven't even pushed it hard through the twisties with it on yet.
Looks good on your bike. What part is scraping?
I put 2" over fork tubes on my Wideglide and fixed the scraping problem...maybe a standard set of Wideglide tubes would improve the scraping on the Bob as they are longer..
That's the Bassani road rage 2 fitted on my LRS never had any issues with it scrapping and that's at stock height. My pegs and crash bar make contact before the pipe does. Love this pipe! Can't say a bad thing about it! Love the sound & performance i get from this bad boy! Only regret i have is not going stainless like whats on Brash's bike, That looks shit hot!!
Never had any probs before with scraping on the Wideglide so hoping these pipes I've ordered will be ok.
Pipes arrived today (Bassini Road Rage 2 chrome), fitting will happen Monday. Dyno tune not long after that - happy days!
