Looks like a sweet tide! Congrats on your new addition to your stable. Just FYI Bassani makes a different version of the Road Rage 2 into 1 which has the headers routed differently and it sits higher so the pipe probably won't scrape like mine did.

Here is the one that scrapes.




Here's the one that sits higher and most likely won't scrape.

My wife has one. She loves it. We just put on the v&h big radius. Sounds good.

I also have the Bassani 2-into-1 and the same issues with scraping, you can just see in this pic. Contemplating modifying it to tuck it up a bit higher because I don't want to spend more money on a whole new system.
I also was told there was a wait on my bike but I was impatient and just took one in Billiard Blue then had it painted. Was two days before Christmas and I wanted to have the new bike for summer (in Australia).

I hear you there but I just couldn't deal with the pipe scraping so I spent the money for a new pipe. It is so much better not having to worry about taking a right corner and hitting the pipe potentially causing loss of control.

I would be very surprised if the end of the front pipe on the Big Radius doesn't scrape. They drop down pretty low. The Big Radius used to scrape on my Sportster 48 but that thing sat super low compared to the Street Bob. I wore all the way through the front pipe before I chopped the ends off. They did sound good though.

Thanks for the tip,

I pulled the trigger on the Big Radius and ordered them yesterday.

That is the one I ordered yesterday, I was in doubt because I have them on my Breakout but that one I have powder coated gloss black. So there would be a visual difference between them

The first mod I did yesterday where the extended indicator caps, I have it on all my bikes now and love it.





Next will be the mirror flip but find a solution for the indicators, certainly the right one because it is on the thread of the mirror.
They have to go on that place anyway but I'm doubt to use them again on the fork legs or go with small ones like these.


Super small from Kellerman



I have the small leds from TB on my Breakout and make a copy from them on my Fat Bob so I would like something different now.

Any one here that uses the Saddlemen Knuckle Renegade solo seat on their FXBB ? I cant seem to find a picture from that seat mounted on a Street Bob, I want to now if fits
well at the gastank and leave no space between the tank and seat like the oem does.

Some pictures, now she is still stock... today I remove the orange reflectors on the fork and make me a side mount for the licenseplate. Hopefully it stops raining so I can take a drive later on.
