Default Hooker Fourbidden Header Opinions

I've really got the hots for a Fourbidden header for my FXLR. They are listed for Softtails and was wondering if I would run into major problems fitting it to my bike. I was told by a local Indy that it "should" bolt up and all I would have to do is fabricate my own brackets.
Any opinions?

The STs have a different way of mounting than the FXRs but I would have to say there is a way to get them to fit if you know how to fabricate a couple of brackets. I say go for it and if you run into problems you could always return them if they are still show signs of not being mounted.

I custom fabbed a bunch of things for my FXR and it was actually fun figuring out ways to make things fit from newer bikes to the old 1991.

Brackets shouldn't be any problem as long as the header will bolt to the heads and not hit anywhere on the frame. From the pictures I have seen, they will hang out a little farther in the leg area. Haven't seen one on a bike to get an idea as to how they actually hang.
