Just bought my first Harley

Hey I'm new to the forum and riding in general. I just bought my first bike this past weekend. It's a 08 Harley Fat Bob. So far I love the bike but hate the pipes that are on it. I'm a short guy and I find if I'm not careful I get a painful reminder of where the pipes are. I am hoping to find someone to buy these or trade pipes. But for now I'm happy with the bike.

Welcome from Mid MO. I'm sure you'll change out those pipes soon enough, seems like those are higher than most. Also, if you're a short guy, you may consider a lowering kit for the bike or different seat designed to get you closer to the ground. Just a suggestion. You did well for your first Harley, it's a nice one.
