I have as you all may know..... a 2003 Night train...

I just got a set of factory pipes from a 2005 Springer Classic...
the ones with the crossover for Duals...
The head Pipes do not fit on my bike....
Is this at all possible?
Dont believe my motor was swapped as it is marked with the 2003 emblem on the base.

Any ideas what may or may not be different?

Thanks in advance!!!!!!

 

well...... im dumb.... or just tired...

all i had to do was loosen a bracket.... roll it into place... tighten the bracket back up.....
Now to put the family to bed.... go finish the job!!!!

 

We all have brain fart moments like that. I had one when I first got my new custom seat and thought it wouldn't fit without even fitting it to the bike - almost went ballistic on Le Pera until I actually tried it on for size. Then I'm like, "oops...heh...my bad." Had about 3 other moments like that over the past 2 1/2 months as I was modding out my bike, but it all turned out okay, imho, and fortunately I didn't break anything. Good luck!

 

Yeah.... It just looked like one piece...
So I just stepped back...


But if anybody else sees this...
The crossover pipe...
Is it just a slip fit? I seen no way to get a clamp of any kind in there....


Also....
I can barely turn left... Is that normal on a dualed up lowered Softail??

 

Just a slip fit...

When you say barely turn left?

Are the pipes equal on both sides?
Post up a pic

 

Sorry I didn't know U had a NT.

All the Dualers pipe riders I know may have the same issue.

Suppose it matters how low and how long.

 

Yeah, it's level... My pops, and nephew rode behind me..... The Pipes aren't the cool long pipes, just the ole factory duals off of a springer classic.. The exhaust itself doesnt scrape... Just the bracket...
