Default Deluxe w/ V&H Double Barrel Longs

I'm considering installing the Vance & Hines Double Barrels or Double Barrel Longs on my 07 Deluxe. I like the look of the Longs but am concerned that the pipes would be too long causing them to scrape during cornering. Does anyone have experience with these pipes? Thanks.

I have hooker long pipes on my deluxe and yes if you corner hard they will scrape a bit.but you can't beat the look.

Still liking the looks of the longs ... Don't seem to be many Deluxe riders w/ these pipes ... Any Deluxes running V&H big shots longs? Any clearance issues w/ these? I'm not an aggressive rider ... after all it is a cruiser. Thanks.

You will be fine my hardest thing is parking you can't back right up to the curb other than that you will be ok.If you ride normal and turn normal no problem at all.

Here's my 06 Deluxe (sold) with V&H BS Longs. Great sound and never touched the ground.
