I am trying to find an aftermarket exhaust for my new fxcwc. I love the bike but hate the stock exhaust. I tried to order the V&H big radius but they said that it will be a few months before they come out. I saw in another post that someone modified it to fit but I don't want to screw my warranty by putting a modified exhaust on. Does anybody know of an exhaust, not slip ons, that goes on this model? I would prefer one with some shape besides the boring straight factory pipes.
The issue withthe Big Radius that Vance & Hines is taking months to fabricate is a new mounting bracket, not any real modifications to the exhaust itself. The other post you mentioned has a member that has fabricated his own mount and is selling them as well. Since it is nothing more than a mount to the frame, I can't see how this could void any warranty but that is just my opinion.
As for other aftermarket pipes, your only bet that I know of today is with Cobra;http://www.cobrausa-hd.com/category....=1&bmid=25. However, they are straight drag pipes and probably not what you are after. I don't see anything on their site specific to the Rocker but the catalog I was looking through at a shop the other day had a specific part number for the Rocker.
My impatient a$$ self has pretty much decided on some Martin Brothers and making a custom mount.
awesome, thanks for the help. My only issue now is trying to convince the dealership to do the install. I am having them do it so I can get a power commander and heavy breather. I need them to tune it for me. I will contact rockerman and see if I can get a bracket.

Power commander will not work with the rockers. you'll have to go with a sert.
good to know. My dealership had already ordered it for me along with the exhaust that wouldn't fit. I had to send it all back when I found out the exhaust wouldn't fit. Apparently they know as little about this bike as I do. Didn't know the exhaust wouldn't fit and they told me I would need a power commander.

I didn't have a problem with the dealer. I told them what I wanted and explained that I would bring the bracket and they said sure. I am also having them replace the baffels with Big City - Thunder Monster Baffles.
I am also thinking of fitting a V&\\;H staggered short shot which I am assured will fit by the local custom shop who have also ordered a power commander which they say will fit?
