How many have dragged their Vance and Hines Power duals on pavement. How many think they cause more vibration? These are two complaints I've heard. I'm thinking of buying a set. How many really like them.

Thanks

 

Scraped the floorboards but have never scraped my pipes. No problems whatsoever. I love mine.

 

Haven't scratched mine, I love mine also. I went from a stock 2-1-2, to the power duals. I feel like I got more power and the mufflers sound deeper and louder, I have rush exhaust. Plus I have a power commander and had to change the map.

 

Haven't scraped them yet. I have the Monster Ovals and really like the sound.

 

No scraping here and no more vibration than before.

 

I have a couple times, you can't see it it unless your laying on the ground. No vibration that I can tell.

 

I love mine as well! Haven't scraped them yet but have only had them on for a few weeks. No more vibration than normal. I also have Monster Ovals and love the combo of the two!

 

They are not proned to scrape any more than others. I have the power dual and my floor boards scrape long before it hits the exhaust.

Why would a head pipe cause more vibration? sounds like a tuning issue, not an exhaust issue.

 

Haven't scraped mine either...got them paired to the CFR's and i am very pleased with the look and sound of this combo!!!!!!!:icon_tw ocents:

 

I have scraped them hard on a right turn at the bottom of my street- hard enough to loose traction on the rear tire...this is a turn I've taken hundreds of times on various bikes.

This was on a 2011 FLHTK lowered 1" front and rear- I doubt this would occur at stock height.

if floor boards scrape, they pivot up out of the way- hard parts scraping can be a real hazard. the area that hits is the cover on the X pipe.

the crossover clamp on the PD's needs to be installed so that it does not hang down where it can hit a speedbump or curb and tear the exhaust off the bike- either oriented so the excess threaded rod is not hanging down, or by cutting/grinding the excess.

added vibration is probably a result of poor installation or worn muffler hanger bushings
