Bassani vs. Vance & Hines
« on: December 29, 2012, 08:36:15 PM »

With all this free time waiting for delivery of my Breakout.  It has given me the luxury of endlessly researching different exhaust systems/slip ons.   From what I have read so far, it seems that Bassani is designed more towards the larger v twins....110" and bigger.  I came across this article on a shoot out with 5 different slip-ons for the sportster 1200 and the Bassani looked to be the clear cut winner with Vance & Hines 2nd.

So with all of that said does anyone here have any experience with using Bassani systems on a 110" motor and how they compare to the Vance and Hines.

Orginally, I was favoring the V/H 2 into 1 BR, and then the V/H Pro Pipe 2 into 1, and now the Bassani's.....Thoughts?

I have already decided on the Power Vision Tuner with the wideband O2 autotuner option...now I just need to decide on the exhaust.

I was going to go with the Bassani's as well, but found some used Rush slip ons in good condition so that is the only reason I went with the Rush slip ons.  I didn't want to spend the extra couple hundred on slip ons- bought my used ones for a little over $100, when I know eventually I would most likely be putting on the Vance and Hines Big Radius 2 into 1.  The Rush slip ons are a temporary solution until Vance and Hines certifies their  system for the Breakout, and if I like the slip ons enough I might just keep it that way.  But to answer your question again, if I were to buy a "new" set of slip ons I would go with the Bassanis.
