VH Big Radius 2-1 question : V-Twin Forum: Harley Davidson Forums

Grizzwold · 11-04-2008, 02:47 PM

I've been thinkin of going with this exhaust for my 07 Bob, love the look of the 2-1 pipe. Right now i'm running Cycle Shack slip on's with SE air cleaner and FI has been remapped by dealer. Anyone runnin the same setup? If so...pros/cons?
Also...will I have to get the FI mapped again or can I run it as is ( eventually looking to get a PC or Fuelpak)?

Grizz I got it on my wg. I might be selling it this winter if you can hold off. I like the pipe but I'm looking at the wicked bros stuff. Looking for something a little louder. I think your map will be fine for now but would definatly get something in the future.

I suggest calling V & H Tech Support. They make the pipe, and the Fuel Pak. I got my best results so far with stageI and fuek pak w/ the Big radius 2-2. Dealer may (will)recommed Dyno, and SERT. But everyone will have an opinion. Including me.

I read somewhere that you have to use an adapter to move the right side passenger peg above the pipe for it to fit. Make sure that you check into that before settling on the Big Radius 2-1.

My Wife bought me a Big Radius 2:1 and I wanted the 2:2 so I am selling my Big Rqadius 2:1 for $400 Shipped. She Paid $600!!! It was on my bike for 5 minutes...I put a small scratch in the front Shield when I was taking it off (DOH!) but it is small and only noticeable when you're really up close to the pipe.
Looks and sounds Great!

No adapter needed on my 07 WG

I am thinking of buying the V&H Big Radius 2 into 1 and if any other people on here have any comments please throw in.

07 FLSTF, sounds fine w/me. Not real loud but speaks up when you make it. I have SE backplate and Zippers A/C-filter. Dealer used my SERT to remap it. I had to have adapter for right Passenger peg to clear pipe and one also included for left one to even it out. Fit and finish are great but I never wash my bike but once/twice a year and it's shiny and all after that.

It's ugly and you can't access your tranny for anything.
Go get a RB Racing LSR or a Guppy 3...

GrampsWyatt · 11-17-2008, 01:18 PM

If you are like me who gives a rats ass on what anyone thinks about how your stuff looks. You can get to the tranny just fine for fluids. Gotta do something else to it, well, deal with it.

I love the look of the V & H 2 into 1. I have an 02 Heritage (Go figure) and wonder if it would fit wiith the bags and all. Just running SE II's, love their sound, but love the big radius look.

The VH big radius 2 into 1 is cool looking. I had one on my bike for about 10 months. They look great, the right side passenger peg kit came with my bike. I have a S.E. cleaner and DFI on my bike and it ran like a raped ape!!!!

Only thing I disliked about them was ..... they are NOT loud. They look like they'd be loud as hell with that 5" opening. Tried getting a 3rd party baffle for it, but no one had one back in July of this year. There may be one now, I don't know. When I say loud, I mean... if you are riding with as little as 3-4 buds you'll get drowned out by their pipes. More than 8-10 bikes together and it was so sad. But if you ride alone all the time, they will seem kind of loud until a bike with some throaty third party pipes pulls up beside you. They are deep sounding.

I put them on craigslist at 7p.m. on a Thursday night and they were sold by 8p.m.!!!!
