Wow, they are expensive. Got my Samson true duals yesterday from DrVtwin. After looking at all the parts freaked me out a little bit. So for grins I called my local HD dealer they want 3 1/2 hours to install my exhaust 311 dollars. F that mess.
So will be calling on the help of the resourceful folks here this weekend. It will be fun tearing apart my 2 week old bike. Just hope I can get it back together. haha

Good luck! After getting robbed by dealers I finally decided this year I am going to start doing all the modifications myself. I will also be counting on all you guys for help! If anyone ever needs a hand around the Miami area let me know! eager to learn and start doing everything on my own!

I thought changing my pipes was going to be a hassle, and although they're not duals like you're looking at, overall it was incredibly simple to do. Of course, I picked a day last summer when it was 114*F outside to do it.. my wrenches got so hot that i burned the palm of my hand... I think I spent more time moving the bike around to follow the shade than actually doing work..

btw thx for the responses. I will just have to figure out how the clamps go. 2 pictures in the directions are pretty terrible.

I see this a lot, horrible pictures in the instructions (no experience with Samson, but lots of others). Speaking for KeeBee here if I may, it might be helpful to send him some better pics. Just sayin'!
