I have a 2014 FLHXS withe 103" motor. I plan on putting on new heads and having them done along with the TW 777 Cams right now. and of course a new air cleaner and tune. Trying to decide what exhaust system to put on it now that way it will be ready for when the other upgrades come. I want good sound. Had Vance and Hines true dual headers and Reinhart Racing Slip on mufflers on my Road King before, but wanted to get some opinions from the group, especially those that have true Duals. I want the system to be black as well if that matters.
What Exhaust to go with?

Our bikes come with the X-pipe (2-1-2) headers from the factory. Are you planning on going with True Duals (2-2)? I am wondering what the difference will be in sound and performance.
I have the VH dresser duals and 4" Rinehart that were just installed and good mix of low end grumble and when I get on the throttle OH my.
I am thinking I want to go true duals but have entertained the choice of a 2-1. Leaning mlre towards duals though. On my road king I had the Vance and Hines true duals wotj Rinehart slip ons and I liked that setup a lot, but getting other opinions. The CFR's sound good from what I have

I'm going 2-1 for performance over looks.... 2-1 is by far the better performer over 2-2 or 2-1-2... dynos prove it. If I stayed duals... the power dual by V/H is awesome and Kuryakyn makes an X pipe for around $400-$500 that I just saw two weeks ago...
Crusher Duals with same X pipe configuration under the heat shield in the pic....

2-1-2 and 2-1 pipes have a slight performance edge over true duals (2-2) unless you are building for high rpm performance only where true duals work best.
2-1 is by far best for performance. I have tried several different setups did bub true duals on a bagger and when I went to the 2-1 my torque went up 18' lbs of torque and horse power went up like 10 hp. So my advise is to go 2-1. I have a supertrapp 2-1 on this bike as well as my others and it does well with power and sound
No input on MGS however, I'm running Rush Ceramic Coated Trues on my scoot and am happy and cool (leg wise).
