#89953 Pop Rivet (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 2775 Doolies 7 Months, 1 Week ago   Ok the Doolies are nice pipes and they sound awesome..and they look good if yer going for the bagger look..... With the R* here is my question.... 1 3/4 pipes with 2 1/2 OD shields Road Burners ...1 3/4 pipes with 3" shields HK's and 1 3/4 pipes with 2 3/8 shields Megacone... I have sat and looked at these pipes and wondered how they could possibly be routed behind the rear cycl either in a true doolie or reg doolie set up Now what I have come up with is on the doolies the cans are 3 1/2 OD but the head pipes are 1 1/2 OD with 2 1/4 shields... based on harley configs.. Am I correct..?? just satisfying my technical curiosity.. Is this true...???   Logged     2009 Ultra Classic HD...2005 Silverado Road Star Listen to the Road Star   The administrator has disabled public write access. #89957 roadrob1152 (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 28 Re:Doolies 7 Months, 1 Week ago   Exactly! They are not "true duals", as a matter of fact I think they state the right side (shared side) carries about 60% of exhaust volume and left about 40%. I still like them though. Had to open the baffles for my taste/set-up, but once that was done they were perfect for me. There is a brand using name True Dual that is a real 2-pipe set-up and I have no idea what size their left or back cyl pipe is.   Logged     Rob & Sharon 2001 Roadie 2005 VStar 1100   The administrator has disabled public write access. #89959 Pop Rivet (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 2775 Re:Doolies 7 Months, 1 Week ago   roadrob1152 wrote: Exactly!

I know they made quite the bend there and I had weld crack...at the crossover joint... but repaired with hi heat weld from Loctite...but the exhaust sounded really good....after I put on Screamin eagle slip ons....   Logged     Last Edit: 2008/06/01 08:47 By Pop Rivet.   2009 Ultra Classic HD...2005 Silverado Road Star Listen to the Road Star   The administrator has disabled public write access. #90019 dj1duke (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 61 Re:Doolies 7 Months, 1 Week ago   freedom performance exhaust offers true duals no crossover pipe. Straight piping. Love them.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #90114 StarMyram (User) STARVE to RIDE, RIDE to LIVE Gold Boarder Posts: 868 Re:Doolies 7 Months, 1 Week ago   Looks like most of them doolie pipes would rub on the ground easily on sharp cornering....? I frequently scrape my floorboard pegs on the roads when leaning her over on hard cornering. Would I be best to stick with stock style and stay away from those low-slung doolies?   Logged     A Fallen Man is not a failure.   The administrator has disabled public write access. #90142 Mark7 (User) Look for me on MSN chat if you want.
