Default Tim Allens Fatboy exhaust.

O.K., I'm new here and over 55. I'm not a wannabe and I'm sorry if this
question has been asked before, but I need help from some of the more
knowledgeable folks here.
I have a black, "Fatboy", and really like the pipes that Tim Allen has on his
in the movie, "Wild Hogs".
I have looked at most of the major brands out there, but have been unable to
find ones that look like his. The major difference is that his look like
stainless steel and not shiny chrome.
Could anyone out there give me an answer about who's exhaust system this is?
I know that this is a movie that some people like and some don't, so this is not
to start a critique, just a bike question. Many thanks in advance.

Tim Allen's bike was not a fatboy...it was "custom" softail with wrapped pipes. Travolta rode the fatboy, which had stock CVO pipes.

Wrong... Go back and look at Tim's bike again notice the Fatboy tank emblem.

Harley-Davidson provided the motorcycles for the making of this film.[citation needed]

XL1200C Sportster Custom for Dudley. (Bill Macy)
FXSTS Springer Softail for Bobby. (Martin Lawrence)
Black Fatboy with a chrome front wheel for Doug. (Tim Allen)
Screamin' Eagle Fatboy for Woody. (John Travolta)

That said, Tom is right above. The bike had a custom rear fender and a set of Short Shots that were wrapped.

Yes, it's a FatBoy he rides in the film, and he has these pipes, which are wrapped:

Not the shortshots, because of the immense stagger between the pipes. So you'd think Straightshots like I had here, right?

but they're not, because the V&H straight shots don't come with that top pipe. I had the top pipe replaced with a different one to give it a different look..

soo.. I'm betting they're the Samsons.
