My bike is not lowered, in fact I have Progressive 13" 440HD shocks in the rear because the stock air shocks are not very consistant. If you drag the jiffy stand on left handers, I can almost guarantee you will drag the x chamber on right handers, if you do any twisty riding at all. Straight road riding you will be fine, but any quick manuevering through the mountains will result in the chamber making contact with the ground.

Default Feedback appreciated

What do you think of the Fulsac X Pipe with the Vance & Hines Monster Ovals on the 2011 Road Glide Ultra CVO?

I like the stock header look and the Fulsac provides that.

The closest cross over I have seen to stock is from Cobra yet I do not see any feedback.

Do the dreeser duals scrape like the power duals? Is there much power increase with the power over the dresser duals?

Thanks

The Fullsac with V&H Ovals would be fine on a RGU. The Fullsac maintains the factory location to mount slip-ons, so any slip-on that works with the factory headpipe will work with the Fullsac as well.

In 2009 when they made the frame change to the touring bikes, there were not a whole lot of choices for after market headers. So I went w/ the V&H dressers duals. These pipes looked very good, sounded very good, and mostly, got rid of that nasty cat in the header causing extreme heat.
Having paired these headers with some 3 1/2" Rineys, and I had the sound I wanted. Nice and mellow at idle or cursing, but just nasty good when getting on it.
Towards the Mid 2009 year more companies were racing to get out new designs for the frame change. I waited and let everyone else be the test pilots for these headers and did my research. I ended up choosing the Fulsacs X-Pipe headers.

Bottom line.... you can't go wrong w/ Jamie and his set up or Steve and his set up. Both these guys really know the business and are both GREAT on customer service.
Only YOU can make that choice for yourself.

Good Luck, and Ride Safe!

Had them both! the Fullsac with X pipe and 2.0 cores is the ticket! Fair cost, great sound. Runs much cooler. Spend the $400 or so and get Steves download,,,,, hard to beat.

To answer your earlier question, you can purchase a FullSac head pipe from vendors as I know DrVTwin sells them. I'm sure others carry them as well.

Default Recommend Fuel Moto

Just my two cents worth into the discussion. Just purchased some V&H Power Duals from Fuel Moto. Have only put about 50 miles on the new set-up, but a vast improvement over the stock header. I run a Ness big sucker and some kerker supertrapp slip-ons. The map that Keith at Fuel Moto provided is working well. If customer service is what you are after as well as quality parts, you can't go wrong with Fuel Moto

I am riding a Road Glide Custom (same height as the Street Glide) and I scrape the heat shields on the Power Duals and my floor boards often. On both the canyons and slow speed parking lot stuff when Im playing around. The bottom of the shield at the X portion is a little low.

Different riding styles and how hard you push it.
