05 Chopper w/VH 2into2 Big Radius..

Rally · 09-27-2010, 01:02 PM

Can anyone comment that has/had the VH 2into2 Big Radius (05 Chopper) say how much they stick out on the right side or any other issue?

V&H #26025

Reason being I now have the Hooker Widetails on bike (occasionally burn leg) and would like to change to the VH 2into2 Big Radius but not if they stick out more than the Hookers I now have.

Any other pipe suggestions is welcome that don't stick out too much.
Thanks

I'm sure someone has some knowledge on these pipes on an 05 Chopper?

I do not have an 05 I have the 03 but I can tell you that sometimes when I fuel up or bring up the kick stand I feel them on my leg. But my jeans give me enough protection to warn me prior to burning myself.

Edit was adding pic

Well can you let us know how tall you are? That might help! I'm 5' 7" and my leg would touch the 2 into 2s every so often. Most of the times I lean the bike to the right a little so the pipe won't touch it. Mind you I ride a Mastiff and not a chopper.

I'm 5'9" not tall by no means and with the Hooker Widetails I burn my leg every so often

I have an 05 chopper with V&H big radius pipes and have not had any problems with them getting in the way or burning my legs. The bottom pipe rolls down enough that I've scraped it several times in steeper turns. I just filed it down a little and haven't scraped it since. I really like the sound of the pipes since installing BCT baffles.

K-9's drag bad too in the twisties!!! I have witnessed this first hand following PPDog through the Dragon!

hope this helps

I have VH BR on my 05 Chop but am 6' which allows me a wider foot placement when stopped. I have a nice 3" burn scar (wearing shorts) that happened right after I got the bike but I learned my lesson. I don't think the pipes stick out more than any others.

Thanks for the pics as it seems to "not" stick out as much as the Hooker Widetails.
Now if I can only find a "good" price on them

Have same V&H on my K9. Have never burned myself, even though I ride in shorts all the time during summer. But I'm damn near 6'3". Agree with others, too...bottom pipe tip does drag quite a bit when runnin thru the twisties. But then again, so do my forward pegs. So go figure.

As for the pipes themselves...I like them, even though I HATE how damn common they are now! Their performance is good, their chrome is good, and the overall look is sweet!
