I want to change pipes on my 2012 Heritage softail classic. I want to get Vance and Hines Big Radis. Do I need all the bells and whisles or can I just put them on and go. Will the sensers handle the load?

 

All bells and whistles? What load?

 

Not sure what the bells and whistles are but as far as the pipes go you can just put them on and ride away...

 

welcome to hdforum sir!!

 

just do the pipes on and go.. only thing is U'll still be EPA lean on Ur A/F ratio.

 

It may pop and bang a bit on decel because of the lean factory setup, but it won't do any real harm to anything.
You might want to get hold of the socket designed for the O2 sensor.
It works better than an open end wrench for pulling out the stock sensors, but isn't absolutely necessary.
If you put any anti-sieze on the threads, (always a good idea) just be careful to avoid getting any on or near the sensor end.
It can screw it up or make it fail completely if any of the stuff gets into it.
