Dual side exit or straight out the rear? What do you think?

I am torn. I'm trying to plan how I want to run my exhaust and I can't decide which way to go. Appearance wise, duals out the back look a lot better to me. However, I will be pulling various trailers occasionaly, including an open trailer with my very, very expensive motorcycle. According to my logic, a side exit would be better for towing, since the exhaust would be directed away from the trailer, instead of aimed right at it. I haven't seen any dual exit side exhausts that I like, and I'm definitely not a fan of the 45'ed tips.

Any suggestions? I would love to see some pictures posted of dual side exit setups so I could get some ideas.

go for the dual side exits or dual side exit in front of the rear tire on the passenger side

I just installed the Roush Off-Road side exit (R12000005) last night and it sounds awesome. I will post some pics this evening for you.

Exhaust just looks out of place on these trucks IMO.

Here is my Single inlet/Dual outlet Cherry Bomb Extreme with side exit. It has some drone over 55 but it is not so much that it drives you crazy. I think any muffler with a side exit dual or not in front of the tire will give you more drone than a rear exit. So keep the drone factor in mind. I had it dumped before the side exit and it was so LOUD it gave me a headache! I then went out the side to be different. I like the rear view of trucks without tips in the back just because there are so many people out there with the same set up.
