I had the RR3 on a 16 street bob and it was always dragging the ground. On my LRS I went with the Road Rage 1 because it only runs the front pipe under the peg and I really like this pipe. The RR3 is a great pipe, I just hated having to take it easy in the turns.

 

Just throwing this out there for the VH Pro-pipe. I like the sound and power but there is a bracket cracking issue. I don't know if the 110 shakes more, but the weight of the Pro-Pipe is up there. I've welded mine up and so far it's holding. The Pipe has about 2200miles on it.

 

Wow, that looks like it’s made to break. Looks like a lot of leverage on that thin piece of metal!

 

That Cobra has a nice look to it!


I will say something I think is interesting is from reading though topics, both the Sportster guys and Touring guys just tend to do Slip-ons. It's interesting that Dyna guys won't even consider them. What I get confused about is seeing the results the Sportster guys get with just slip ons vs when they do a full exhaust.

These guys doing professional tests got 93hp and 117 torque with a pair of Rush slip ons vs 89hp and 117 torque (with a much lower low end torque curve) from a TBR, and that bike had better heads.

This is why I'm not ready to just swap in a full exhaust. Least just for power sake. A full set of pipes on a 2:1 might be lighter, so that's something to consider, and there is the sound difference too. But if we're talking just performance? Well... I feel like there are assumptions that need to be challenged. Since I can't buy a new exhaust just yet, might as well play Myth Busters, lol.

 

Just get a full exhaust. You’ll be happy you did

 

Supertrapp supermeg.

Build quality, performance, sound, clearance, is all good.

Some don't like the look of a long exhaust but the length helps create torque down lower for better use on the street, which probably doesn't matter too much with 117 cubes

Having said that I love the sound of the thunderheader, but I know the noise would annoy me eventually and it would attract bad attention from neighbours and the law

 

No doubt. My full stock system left the dealer in the bed of my Chevy, and went into the scrap bin at work. I think we got a buck-fifty for the scrap.
