Looking at the Vance and Hines site for my Fat Bob, I noticed that the passenger foot pegs may not work with the following pipes:

Big Radius 2 into 2
Big Shots Staggered
Short Shots Staggered

These pipes look great but useless to me if there aren't any footpegs for my wife.

 

Probly just need to put a block between the peg mount and swing arm, to raise the peg up a little. I've seen it mentioned to get those pipes to work on other models.

 

Can only speak on the short shot's, no mods required.

 

Other pipes come up higher than Short Shots, that's the problem the way I understand it.

 

They were on his list, that's why I let him know that the short shots did not have a problem with the passenger pegs.

 

I have big radius on my Fat Bob. No problem with the passenger pegs at all.

 

HD is nothing more than a simple puzzle to analyze. All things can be accomplished with a lil forethought, some basic tools, and a a few well placed questions on this Forum.

Im almost sure, Vance and Hines, took the fit into consideration and may well have a solution for the passenger peg issue.

I cant imagine them making pipes and removing basic stock components from the bike. especially safety items like the foot pegs.

If your still confused, give em a call first.

if not,do what i do, run a search on this board for those specific pipes and see what turns up. im sure someone turned a negative into a positive if that be the case.

 

Understood, no worries...Only commenting on* what I've read on the others. Put the Short Shots on mine before the rear pegs and pillion.

*Edit add from there

 

It's all good. I surprised V&H said that there may be a problem with the short shots, plenty of clearance. I guess if you increased the stock shock length you may run into problem but that would be the only way i see.

 

Does your passenger feel the exhaust since the pipes are exiting right where the pegs are?
