Re:Need advise on purchase of Doollys 2 Years, 3 Months ago  
I have the Roadhose Doollys on my RS08. I am very hapy with them, love the sound and looks. A couple of things to consider on the Rodhouse:
1 RS Doollys are not true duals; the exaust and sound is about 70% on the right and 30% on the left pipe. This is no big deal for me but it is for some folks.
2. If you are installing them yourself, the Roadhouse are a pain to install but doable for most of us who like to work on our machines.
3. If you have saddle bags on your bike, you may need to lower the bags some. At first, my bike looked kind of awkward with the doolys because of the gap between the bags and the new lower pipes. I lowered the bags using available brackets and now the bike looks great.

Good luck.
