Default V&H

I have got a 98 sportster and it appears to have stock exhaust and it also has forward controls, im looking to eventually upgrade to some short shots, but i thought i had read somewhere that they wouldn't work with forward controls? Any knowledge or know about on this? Thanks

They work just fine with forwards on the rubbermounts. Not positive about your solid but seems to me they do.
