Default Samson Fishtails - will they fit XBones?

Hey guys these pipes (Samson Fishtails) are for sale locally, according to the owner they are new and were ordered for a 2001 Springer Softail and never installed. I have been considering putting fishtails on 09 XBones - but these seem to be the Samson "true duels" and I am not looking to put duels on the Bones. Anybody have any idea if these will fit on a 09 Bones (they need to fit in place of stock exhaust). Any informed and experienced opinions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

They are made for true duals so the mounting point are most likely not right.

If the pipes are made for 2006 and earlier they will not fit the later 2007-2011 Softails. Please give us a call for fitment applications. 888-5-SAMSON.
Thank you,
JR / SAMSON
