Default V&H on Big Dog Chopper

Hi ALL

Has anybody put a set of V&H Big Radius on a 04 Big Dog Chopper DT? V&H lists for 05 & up RSD, but nothing for LSD Choppers.

Thanks

Cory

I used the regular softail Big Radius pipes on an 04 AIH texas chopper, fit great.

I've got a set of softail Big Radius pipes on my '03 BD chopper, no fitment issues (but I would recommend using a thicker head gasket, as the thin hi-perf gaskets leaked a tiny bit on the new 127's initial breakin). And yes, they DO scrape when you lay into a right turn, but I really like these pipes. I've been through several sets on this bike, and these are by far my favorite.
