I have the jackpot 2-1 rtx riot on my streetbob. I love these pipes. They aren't obnoxiously loud at idle with a stage 2, but roar when you twist the throttle.
Ive been running an HPI long pipe and absolutely love the power, the look and the sound that I get from it. I own a 22 RGST and have been building it since I bought it. Slow build but building. Right now pushing 136 torque and 126 HP. Next will be head work. Great channel btw
I was very close to ordering the New fuel moto Contender exhaust which from what I was told by fuel moto uses the same baffle as the Jackpot RTX but contender looks wayy better imo. Instead I just fell in love with the HPI shorty exhaust. It looks absolutely incredible on the Low Rider ST. What sold me the most was the sound. Which is one thing you didnt really talk about in your video here. HPI hands down just sounds incredible with a Cam.
Bassani is a great company. They take the time to run their pipes through a flow bench and adjust designs accordingly. Keep in mind, the pipes Michael mentioned are based on HIS opinion and nothing more. He does a good job with research but he is also limited to what and how many pipes he can test. I have a Bassani exhaust. It’s a phenomenal pipe. I had two on a TC motor, and now I have the Superbike pipe on my m8 touring bike. I love it, but I have yet to put it on a graph to see the numbers.
Great video bud. This was very informative on pipes to look at. Too bad you don’t have any sound clips to go with these choices. Always enjoy your videos and looking forward to your next comparison videos. Really looking forward to your next bike build especially.
There’s a lot of good pipes. I know it’s an older pipe but still is an excellent one is a Thunderheader. Especially for a bagger that a long pipe looks good. He didn’t mention a two brothers pipe that on another channel proved to be a great value price and performance combined . S&S makes some good pipes and Vance & Hines has some good new pipes for the M8 . The other really important thing is to have your bike properly tuned .
@@MichaelBertini exactly, Where I got mine gave me 200$ off on the FP4 if I bought it at the same time, whyyyyyyyyy not. Now in a couple weeks when I cam it (cam/lifters/springs), Ill likely go PV. V&H exhausts are great, Tuner leaves something to be desired
Your channel actually just came across my feed. I'm happy to support you and other fellow content producers. Best of luck with your channel, keep up the great work and ride safe out there.
I have the D&D Billet Cat Big Bore on my 17 UL with a crate 131", power is amazing and sound is what you would expect for large can exhaust on a 2-1. Meanwhile he down talked them because of weight but neglected to mention that the system can be ordered without the" ghost pipe" which will save a lot of weight.
I have 2018 SG M8 107 with a stage 4 kit I have TAB performance exhaust but I wanna get a 2 into 1 .. looking for HP but also torque more than anything.. idk what to get …
Hello Mr Bertini. I have a 22 road king 107 with an S&S 475 cam. What would you recommend for the best 2into1 option for under $1500? Thanks for the videos
Great Video thanks for the info. I am currently on the market for a 2-1 exhaust on my 19 street glide build. What do you think about the khrome werks outlaw 2-1 system.
Hey Michael! Just about to make up my mind regarding exhaust for my 2022 RG ST with manifold, 60mm TB and a Star Racing F35A-cam before going to the dyno bench.. The 2-1 is a no brainer for me, but I´m super confused on which of the 2-1´s on the market that actually has that really violent sound on both idle and during load. I just don´t like the mellow pipes with a bark when you hit it. I want it all no matter what.. Any suggestions on pipe that can meet these requirements and if there is anything that can be customized after getting the pipe to make it scream without losing that back pressure? Thanks man!
Running A Pipe From Abused Bagger Nation. Full Titanium Exhaust (lightest iv ever felt) Great sound, Easy Install, And Amazing craftsmanship!! Check Them Out. Oh Yeah And Completely Hand Built... downfall is they are not cheap.
Like watching all sorts of videos about 2 into 1s. I kinda think you missed the boat on this one. The D&D and Riot are spot on the others not so much. I love HPi but they are bringing crazy power. I know this video was a month ago but today blockhead compared HPi to a TBR which was a grand less and actually the TBR hit harder at low RPM and was basically equal throughout. Look at kromewerks 2into1. How about the thunderheader? I’d even argue pre EPA Vance and Hines pro pipe is rt there and very cost effective. Keep up the good work.
Title says performance exhaust. Do you have any experience with tuning? D&D on M8’s out performs all other brands for performance, especially on bigger performance builds.
A little disappointed with the S&S superstreet 2into1 for my lowrider ST So I ordered the fuel moto contender pipe!!!! Not a big fan of the ice cream cone muffler like the fab28 or shorty jackpot riot
Love my Trask pipes im interested on weight comparrisons have a fueling reaper 472 and notice big differance when i installed my Trask Assult exhausth pulls like a $10 crack whore now
slightly misleading video. they might all make decent power but every exhaust on here will make power vastly differently then each other. shorty pipes are 100% mid to high rpm pipes they lose a LOT of bottom end torque
@@sublimekid247 I can see where you’re coming from. The best and most recent video out on exhausts can be watched on Blockheads RUclips channel. Chris does a full breakdown on a bunch of exhaust systems. 🙂🤘🏼

Are those numbers strictly from the exhaust or do you have motor work? Regardless, impressive
I just ordered a fab 28. Full length exhaust. I did it because you don’t see a lot of those out there and it’s also a hand made custom pipe
Please, continue the top 5 series videos!
@@SilverIndian thanks for the feedback, I might just do that! 😅👊🏼
I have the rtx long on my 131 cr 540 cam made 146 hp 159 torque with a slipping clutch. Great exhaust system.
man that cam needs high compression
Yea and it’s like 1100$ when it’s in stock
I’ve been eyein the contender I think it’s called
Mid length .. got that big fat muffler that looks dope.

I picked up a bassani 2 into 1 for 400$ CAD. Barely used, looks mint. I assume they would make it in a top 10.

Bassani Gang 4 ever! Wouldn’t want anything else for my 23 LRS
Im still stock shopping around. Long distance rider. But love the classic look of 2 pipes.
The classic look will always be nice, too 🤘🏼

Great video. I have a Thunderheader. I love it. What’s your thoughts?
Thanks man, hope your doing well.

Question. With the exhaust coming out under the bag like that. Does it burn it or ruin the shell at all?
Hello Mr Bertini. I have a 22 road king 107 with an S&S 475 cam. What would you recommend for the best 2into1 option for under $1500? Thanks for the videos
Awesome thank you
You’re welcome 👊🏼
Thank you for your take. How do you compare fuel moto jackpot riot to their contender series by fuel moto
Love my hpi
Which was best on heat transfer protecting rider
I just got the Bassani road rage III. did i make a mistake?
nothing wrong with that pipe
Just got a Trask assault for my 114 Streetbob 800 bucks. I’m hoping it’s a nice pipe.
I have a 15 twin cam Roadglide stage 4 . I went with the bassani two into one.
What’s your opinion
Great Video thanks for the info. I am currently on the market for a 2-1 exhaust on my 19 street glide build. What do you think about the khrome werks outlaw 2-1 system.
Blockhead did a comparison on these pipes and TBR pipes was putting out the same numbers as HPI pipes on the dyno.

What are your thoughts on thunder headers?
I’m running a thunder header on my mhp 143
What happens to the Thunderheader?
No M8 but on my 883ish I'm running a Twisted Choppers Ground Pounder wrapped. Believe there out of South Dakota
I’ve got Sikpipes Double Barrel on my 1200 Sportster crazy fucking loud.
I favor the Rinehart 2 n 1 myself
Running A Pipe From Abused Bagger Nation. Full Titanium Exhaust (lightest iv ever felt) Great sound, Easy Install, And Amazing craftsmanship!! Check Them Out. Oh Yeah And Completely Hand Built... downfall is they are not cheap.

Is cobra el Diablo any good ?? Lol
A little disappointed with the S&S superstreet 2into1 for my lowrider ST
So I ordered the fuel moto contender pipe!!!!
Not a big fan of the ice cream cone muffler like the fab28 or shorty jackpot riot
Did you sell your fuel moto rtx 2-1 exhaust?
At best you get a good sound. Power may go up 5%, the loss on torque is signicant. If you want power The engine needs work.
Love my Trask pipes im interested on weight comparrisons have a fueling reaper 472 and notice big differance when i installed my Trask Assult exhausth pulls like a $10 crack whore now
Team rinehart true duals...
@@morrisdennis Rinehart is 🔥too
I have a bassani rr3 on my m8 softail I want a noon inc or a hpi next
I always heard the best exhaust system is the ones that have two separate pipes with two separate mufflers ain't that true
Wsp? You alright?
Watch blockheads video of exhausts. Shootout. First of you would be lucky to feel a difference with 8 pds of torque or hp … on your own bike.
Other than D&D, you left out some heavy hitters, such as S&S, Vance & Hines, Two Bros, Bassani, Rineharts, Etc.
Evaluation Score = Incomplete.
slightly misleading video.

HMMMM...RB RACING didn't make your "OPINION" list.....HMMMMM !!!!!
Completely subjective opinion. This video needs some dyno number comparisons, especially torque, or else it needs to be re-titled.
Crazy right? Especially when the video start with "in my opinion".
HPi all the way….and I am still waiting 😂
How many more months do you have to wait? Lol
@@justinmilam6899 Your guess is as good as mine 😂!
