Two Into One Exhausts 5 Years, 4 Months ago  
Hi,

I was wondering if anyone has bought the Roadhouse Classic two into one exhausts system. I think they look great and am led to believe they have a sort of low rumble - which I like the idea of.

They are bloody expensive here in the UK (like £520) - so that's around $1000 ! And it wil probably mean that some of the other stuff I wanted to do will have to wait.

Cheaper alterative may be he Roadhouse Slip on's but I'm inclined not to cut corners and go for the 2 into 1.

Any comments most welcome.

Yes they have a low rumble and are not too loud while cruising.

Not my taste but a very nice sounding pipe.

Robinw:

The Roadhouse Classic 2-1 exhaust system is arguably the best sounding 2-1 system made for the Road*. It's very popular, but also pricey, as you stated. I love the retro look - it works well with the Road* styling - pls it gives you a nice little boost in performance. The Roadhouse system also provides plenty of service access to the transfer case, making gear lube changes very easy.

There are several accessory retailers offering the Roadhouse Brand pipes and free shipping (at least to the CONUSA). I'm sure that you can find someone who would be willing to ship to England.

Try these retailers:

Good luck!<br><br>Post edited by: 06MidnightStar, at: 2007/01/25 12:25

I have the roadhouse 2 into 1, and I got it for just the reason you are talking about. I work shift and come home early all days of the week and didn't want to blast the whole court with my appearance.

I wasn't crazy about the look of the 2 into 1 with the funky heat guards, but after having them on I've grown to like em. The sound is perfect for me, really low rumble, no high cracking sounds. It's quite a bit louder than stock, but you can ease it through the neighbourhood no problem without offending anyone.

I have a set of Road House 2/1 on my bike the sound is good. I have also found out the serrated heat sheilds are real
attention getters. My wife even likes the sound. Nice rumble!
