Love my Stubby Cat.

 

I have the super radius from V&H. I have been very happy with the deep tone
quite cruising sound (can hear radio) and nice bark when cracked.

 

Not sure how that hellbender would look without some pretty darn aggressive side covers. Other than that, system does have a nice look to it.

I think if I did extended bags/fender I'd like to have exhaust dump under the bags. Not too many options and additional dust...

 

I have been debating them as well, but I am not comfortable with how close to the bag they dump out...

 

WOW! Now that I like! I'm not a fan of side exhaust but this looks bad ***! I'm wondering if these drag in a right turn.

 

another angle for you. Not a problem on bag

 

with factory bags, not at all, but I would think that once I have extended the bags and side covers it would probably be an issue.

 

They mention on the website that dragging would not be covered under warranty... so I am thinking that they do a bit.


Most bikes that have side covers and bags to follow that contour would probably be dragging bags as well though...

 

I love that the stubby exhausts are just as much if not more than regular exhaust.

 

With pipes that short, it won't matter if they are 2-1-2 or 2-2, your power peak will be at higher RPMs. Just like a Drag Race bike...


Torque, or more precisely, area under the curve, is what you will lose on the Street.
