I just bought mine. Put a set of Vance &Hines big radius pipes on it. Sounds a lot better than that stock trash.

Yeah good choice, I'm looking at a set of V&H's 2 into 1 radius style pipe in black. Not sure what they are calling them. The stock chromies have to go!

v&H calls them big radius 2 into 1. They arent on the site but if you contact the email on the website they will find them for you. Thants what i did for mine and they went on without a problem

Where you can get the best deal for that pipe (Big radius 2-1)? Looking for a 2005 FLSTN Deluxe

Hi, I am getting ready to purchase a slim. I am trying to decide what pipes to put on it. I would love to see the big radius 2into1 on the bike. I am wonder if the propipe 2into1 might be nice.

Thanks!

got a slim. Got some thunderheaders on them with cams. Sounds great. Check out some vids on youtube for the V&H bid radius. Im not too sure on what sound youre looking for but some of the vids dont do the sound quality any justice. The thunderheaders have a nice guttural/throaty sound which was what i was looking for.

I just picked up a 2013 Softail Slim.
I traded a 2012 Switchback in on it...
