I found this exhaust on JP Cycles. http://www.jpcycles.com/Search/Produ...esults=100&No= Has anyone ever used this before or seen it or have any idea about it? If this is not a good idea than what exhaust could I use that would free up both swing arms...does not have to be 2-1 that is just what I like. I know its a lot to digest and I'm very particular but we all want our bikes the way we want them...
The Martin Bros. Daisy Cutters like on my bike, will allow you to put a swingarm bag on both sides. Mine are pretty loud, but I don't have baffles in either.

Chop On,
Robert

Performance depends on what style Martin Bros; mine are the WTF's (see sig pic). They are a bit longer than most of the others and are stepped 3x (1.75-2.5 I think) thus adding to the performance factor. When I first brought my bike to the indy for tuning with the WTF's he laughed and said I should have kept my V&H. After tuning he aplogized because he got more HP out of the Martins then he usually gets from V&H. I don't have a problem with "blueing", but they tend to get "brownish" around some of the curves.
