• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

CORBIN WITH 2 BROTHERS DUAL EXHAUST

Does anyone know if the corbin saddle bags will work with two brothers dual exhaust?

:dontknow: I don't know for sure but I could see where there could be a problem with it. The Corbin saddlebags relocate the muffler mounting a few inches lower. That makes the stock muffler parallel to the ground instead of the slight upward angle that it is normally at. So, once you put the dual exhaust on with the Corbins, the lower one of the two mufflers would be pointing down at least and maybe too close to the ground or touching the ground in the worst case.
 
I'm sure you could make them work but they won't bolt right up. It may hang too low too. :dontknow:
 
Yeah, I think you'll be running them pretty close to the ground. The Corbin bags do tilt the exhaust down a little -- about 2".
 
well there goes that mod. I was gonna get those corbin bags but if my 2brothers are gonna drag, no way. I love the way the corbin bags look too. Guess I will have to go with GIVI bags... not the same though.....
 
I wouldn't say that dragging is a definite. Using SpyderGirl's info that the Corbin bags tilt the exhaust down two inches lower, if your Two Brothers exhaust was two inches lower, would that cause any issues? Looking at your pictures, its hard for me to tell if those two inches would cause a problem.

I have Corbin bags and I see no way to mount a dual exhaust. Actually you could mount it but there would not be very much clearance between road and exhaust
 
As long as the lower muffler is above the rear wheel rim, and the upper muffler clears the bags, should work. If you've got access to a Spyder with the Corbin set up, measure ground clearance, then check your muffler's clearance.

Instead of using the rim as a gauge, I would try to determine rear shock travel and use that measurement as a minimum clearance needed for the dual exhaust.

The other option is to get some custom duals like NEXUS has. There are no issues with his duals and the Corbin bags.
