True Dual poll
Instead of searching all the different post on the plus and minus side of running True Duals, I thought I'd set up a poll. Maybe it will help me make up my mind whether to go with True Duals or not. Right now I'm leaning towards getting a set of Vance and Hines True Duals installed this winter on my 08 Ultra.
Please be honest in your selection.

I had Rinehart tru-duals on my 06 Roadglide once and took them off. I hated the performance from them. It took forever for the torque curve to come in.
Oh, and the sound!!! I got to say, I hated them, way too BLATTY sounding.
I installed a 2-1 system and that moved the torque curve to the left at least 1000 rpms.

I had a 2-1 it made so much power I jumped the dyno trying to load!!
I installed true duals to get it up the ramp and onto the dyno.
I really like them as a wheelie bar!!
The sparks look so cool at night!!
The 2-1 wouldnt hit the pavement to keep me from flipping over!!
No sparks No way!!!

I had White Bros TDs on a '00 RK. It was a stock motor, and the thing ran real well.

I've got D&D true dual head pipes and S&S SPOs on my 05" RK 117 and love em. Yes, I could get maybe another 10/10 out of 2-1 pipes and could go with a little hotter cam but I'm at 125/125 SAE with over 110lbs at 2500RPM so the ride is a thrill...and should last 100k+ miles if I don't crash it first ..(pay attention Tim)...

With the right cam combo and a good tuner a good 2 in 2 will kick butt.
