Default Sweet sound of a Fat Cat

I'm getting a few people asking me about my D&D Fat Cat. I have a couple friends riding Street Bobs one runs a Thunderheader another a Pro Pipe. Other then exhaust we're all set up the same and I constantly walk on then in every gear. Around here not a lot of people no about D&D. I hope it stays that way! Anybody running a Fat Cat or a Boarzilla? What do you think of it?

Funny you should ask. Just posted this yesterday over on the Dyna thread.....Really like the fit function and sound of the Fat Cat. When I was having the engine built, was originally going to go 110" and put the Boarzilla on it. Went with the 103" build instead and the Fat Cats since D & D recommends the Boarzilla on a minimum 110" engine.

That has to be the best pipe video I have ever seen. Makes me want one of those pipes.

I'm happy with my Fat Cat. I was looking at the Low Cat also, but thought the exhaust would exit too close to the bottom of my saddlebag.
Here is a clip on the D&D Low Cat, which is basically a Fat Cat, but gives more cornering clearance. When the rider takes off, they show a close up of the inside of the muffler. That muffler has the quiet baffle in it.

I watched the local HD dealer run a Road King on the dyno with newly installed Fat Cats. Not only are those beautiful pipes, but they sure sound great.
