Default Exhaust question

How are the "corrugated" exhaust tubes seen here called?



Where can you get them?
I'd be interested in putting them on my Dyna...
Which modifications are needed?
Pros?
Cons?
Thanks for any input.

how about "flex pipe"? these shown are covers made to duplicate the look of early year Harley use of flex pipe for ease of fitment and alignment.

Yes, I actually hoped they were covers, so you maintain heat protection and get good looks
Does anybody know where you can get them and the approx price?

The photo you show is of a "Roadhouse" exhaust system 2 into 1. The heat shields are designed for the retro look. Check with Roadhouse or Drag Specialities to see if you buy only the shields.

Found them.
My dealership has a set.
Unfortunately, there's another problem: unless you apply them to a 2in1, the compensating ube between the two exhausts impairs the task of slipping the flex tube on the exhaust...
I'm evaluating different solutions.
