That's what I have on my 1997 Heritage Springer

*Edit: after reading the next post, I see I should have included in my post how long I have had them on my Springer and how I like them;
They have been on my springer for 10 years (since 1999) I picked the Sampsons because I wanted true duals and I like the looks and the sound. My last state inspection the shop decibel meter read 105 db. That left me only 1 db to spare. The straight pipe fishtails are on the bike in the photo above.
I have one set of straight pipe fishtails with Chrome Works 8 inch baffles cut down to 3 inches long, I have Torque Valves that helps fight the negitive effects of the exhaust reverbertion.
I also have a set of Sampson 3 in mufflers with fish tails that I put on inplace of the straight pipes when I go for cross counrty rides through many states. I don't want to deal with exhaust noise issues with Rosco and his friends.

Running them on my FI Deluxe and like them so far. Only about 1000 miles on them. Too early to tell you about their quality. Like the sound though.

No issues with left side heat when I ran them which was 3 years. I swapped for a 2 into 1 out of OCD.

On a hot day I can feel the heat, but not too bad. Just don't wear shorts and you'll be right.

I have 28.5s fish tails on my Deluxe with no problems, just to clairify there are fish tails and long tails. They sound great.... I live in the southwest were the temps get over 100 deg F and I really cant tell the the diffrence from my old exhaust. What ever pipes you have are gonna get hot. Samsons are well worth the price, great quality product.
