Default SS Header Pipes NFG!

Purchased bike used with 11k miles.It's a SG CVO.OP had a HD dealer install pipes and a tuner tune with a stage 2.
Left leg was getting additionally HOT.Waited for next ride on start-up.It didn't sound good.Investigated a broken pipe.Nice.....Not happy.
Called dealer who did install.I have the UPDATED version witch mean's EAT-IT!!
Guess SS shortchanged on engineering issues with the SHAKING 110 rubber mounted engines.I was told the first series damaged the oil pans at the mounting points.
I already ordered a new VH header.I will call SS tomorrow.
I haven't read any negative on this form or CVO forum.Possible a seperate case...I doubt it.The diameter of these look pretty thin.

Nope sorry just put on a set of VH'S.The match to these not the pipes with the crossover.
VH added 2 brackets.One right at the break area(smart fix) and one attached to the oil pan.Definitely heavier pipes.SS pipes are TEMPORARY.

From the looks of the chopping on that rear tire you better do a little maintenance with the pressure too
