Go old school and modify or make it fit.

Exhaust advertised to fit 84-85 softails should fit...many exhaust that say they only fit 86-99 softails will fit...many 2 into 1's will fit...

Many exhaust will require a extended kicker shaft, or offset kicker arm to work...

Look at as many pictures of bikes with kickers to get an idea of what fits...

You are off the reservation with that modification, up to you to figure out the next step. There is not going to be an off the shelf solution. Good luck.

So are kickers the thing now?
Fat tire. Skinny tire?
Up swept. Straight drags?
and paint? What about paint LOL

There are tons of "off the shelf" exhaust that will fit with a kicker...when you look at pics of exhaust just make sure they don't run across the transmission cover...many do...

Most all of it is a fad, and one will be swept along by every one of them if they have no clue of their own.
Big wheels, ape bars, paint, tattoos, fat/skinny tires, baggers, sisy bars , loud music, chains VS belts, etc etc

If you chase the fads you will not ever be happy.
Create your own.
