Not my bike but I'm kind of partial to a 2-into-1 and general lore suggests they are best for all round performance. The RB Racing one below is clean, but some don't like the sharp angles on the rear pipe. I have one on a bagger. Most brands do them. I think RB argue the curves for performance purposes to balance the timing of gases coming out or something but I'm not sure. Perhaps its so the bottom bend isn't quite as sharp as other designs, or which there are many?

I can argue against the guys with direct experience on power but everything I've read re duals says the kind of noise they produce is the plus. I just prefer less metal to clean and carry around.

What are you thinking, two pipes down one side, or one pipe either side like a bagger? I think that also works visually.

No I want to keep the same look just have a hidden crossover. Or one that doesn't cover the motor like that. Something like this but with my tips on there. These are from a 2009 Rocker C

If you look close it looks like there's a crossover where the pipes come together.

That Rocker system is similar to my Sporty system, which I mentioned earlier. What serves as a mounting bracket is also the balance pipe, hence is hidden from view. One like that may well fit your bike, possibly with a little adaptation of the mountings. It will fit at the heads, as the geometry of the ports hasn't changed since Adam was a boy.
