Hello all!! I'm new here so this is my first post and glad to be here. Sharp deuce, 02BlueDeuce!! I've been looking for that exhaust for my "03". I'm not crazy about my shotgun exhaust and I don't really like drag (straight) pipes either. What exhaust do you have??

The exhaust is a python3 but I don't believe they are available anymore. You might try ebay. Good luck.

Two of my favorite Harleys past 1990 came from the Softail family. The Custom and the Deuce. I still will never understand how Harley thinks that a switchback and that ****ing horrendous V-rod were worth keeping over these two bikes, but more power to them.

What does the Heartland EZ-Deuce kit entail. Ball park price? Is it quality bolt on stuff? Appears you kept stock rear tire. I thought the braces coming off frame in rear needed sawed off.? Appears to make a Deuce into a Rocker. Yours sure makes an improvenment in rear fender.
