I'd look at Bassani if I were you. Performance, quality and sound are top notch. Thunderheaders are crap in terms of finish quality so I'd never even consider it and the D&D has a raspy sound that I can never get used to. The V&H 2-1 has a nice sound too and is top notch quality as well.

My opinion, I prefer bassani or v&h 2-1 systems. I would find a used one run it for a bit to make sure it is sound and performance you want then sell that one to get you a brand new one. Then your not out much if you don't like it. Not many badgers around here running 2-1 and computer speakers don't do them justice.

Many good choices out there, I ended up with RB Racing LSR , very nice, lots of options however some versions are very expensive like over a grand, mine wasn't I got the cheapest version they make. Rinehart is just coming back into the market and will have a 2-1 , check them out before making your decision.

Hard to beat a fatcat for looks and performance...sound is more like a big block open header than a harley

Bassani road rage or Thunderheader. The TH fit and finish aren't that great.

D&D also makes the FatCat, which many here prefer. I think the D&D makes the harley sound like a honda...haha. It just produces a raspy sound.....Now fit and finish on the other hand are top notch. If you can just get over that horrible sound...

if you can get over the quality of the Thunder Header (and maybe the sound) then it might be the pipe for you.

D&D, V&H Pro pipe and Bassani Road Rage are also excellent choices
