Default Sportster/Nightster exhaust

I have to pass a inspection with my 2008 1200c but I have Vance and hines exhaust on and they won’t pass me with them (I live in Quebec). Will 2009 oem nightster pipes fit my custom ?
thanks

Believe there is no difference in the stock exhaust between the Custom and Nightster (or other models). So... the answer... should be no problem.

The good thing about HD is that many parts are the same despite model differences. I have the exhaust from an 09 96ci motor on my 05 with a 88ci . Fits perfectly.
