That's actually the stock head pipe.

Pretty good progress today. Most of the backend together except the wheel and brake.

Fender came out nice after compounding and wax. I am absolutely sold on Meguiar's products. Been using them a long time.

Is it one of the Shadetree exhaust? Really curious about where it came from.

Splattt it's the factory head pipe that comes with a Springer. It has a stub pipe that the left exhaust hooks into. Gordon's just taken the chrome covers off for some reason.

I'm lookin for that exact look for my Slim.
The 2:1 I have now sits higher and blocks some of the engine parts. Primarily the tranny cover
Any idea if it fits current day siftails?

You can indeed take the cam cover off without touching the exhaust with these pipes.

I can't say if it'll fit a 103 with the longer stroke, 4.375 vs 4.000. I can say the air cleaner from a 103 fits perfectly on a 88, bolts right up.

Hopefully someone else will chime in with the answer. I bet Hspring03 knows. He's omniscient in things Harley.
