2013 vs 2014 breakout

I plan do buy an exhaust for my 2014 but the vendor told me that it will only fit the 2013....

2014 had ABS standard, 2013 it was an option, most did not get it. That's the only difference besides colors that I know of.

In terms of exhaust fitment they are the same. As Killer Squirrel mentioned the w/o ABS option in 2013 was the only technical difference.

Thanks for your feedback guys!
It's about the sharktail upswept exhaust from freedom perf
http://www.freedomperform.com/harley-davidson/softail/fullsystems/upsweeps/
But when I ask them, they said it won't fit my bike
without any explanation
And another ebay seller told me that it will fit the 2013 breakout, and not the 2014...

On the website of their vendor for Europe it says (for those Sharktails) "For Evolution Softails from 1986-1999 and Twin Cams 2000 and up,
except Rocker & Breakout "
see here
Probably 'cause of the wider rear end...

Have already asked them
"Will not fit" was the only answer I received. ..
And I guess that all manufacters will not test fit their exhaust on new bikes, the "will not fit" answer is the universal answer for the annoying international customer I am

I'm agree with this
but the frames are the same. ..motors too
Just the swingarm which is wider.
But the swingarm is not wider than the frame
The pipes are straight, so i don't understand why it will not fit
Perhaps the right blinker ?

If the swing arm is wider than the frame has to be wider to accommodate the swing arm.
