Default Stock header pipe for Wide Glide

I want to replace my Stock head pipe with a Cat Less head pipe. I have a 2014 FXDWG.
Is it just the 2008 & 2009 Fat Bob that came stock with no Cat in the head pipe??? Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Different size O2 sensors in the 2008-2009 Fat Bob headers. .18mm vs 12mm. .you'd have to get adapters, which are available, but then your O2 sensors would not go deep enough into the pipe to collect good readings. Your best option is to do as Joe suggested in terms of cost and function. The heat shields will cover the weld.

Do you have any extra dead pipes you can de-cat then ship? If so, how much for work and shipping? It would cost me quite a bit just to ship mine to you. Thanks.
