Why doesn't V-H make Shortshots for Sporties before '04.&nbsp\\; Not enough volume, I would guess.
&nbsp\\;
I have a '99 and would really like to get a set if I could make them fit.
&nbsp\\;
Does anybody have knowledge of the difference between the two series ('03 and '04) and how difficult it would be to adapt a set of pipes to the earlier model?
&nbsp\\;
Thanks

 

I am wondering the same thing.

 

Couldn't tell ya, I got em on my '06, probably has something to do witht he old style rubber mounted engine, you could always give them a call and see what it would take to fit a set on. I imagine it has something to do with the mounting bracket.

 

It's a mounting thing, you should be able to make a mount for them, after all, it's only metal.

 

[align=left]I have short shots on my 98 its just a matter of having forward controls , moveing the rear brake master cyl up and modifying the mounting bracket that comes with them

Very nicely done, Xlent98. I have forward controls, how difficult is it to move the master cylinder?

Thanks to all for the replies.

Why do I keep getting slashes in my posts?

 

Damn, that's a nice looking bike xlent98.

 

Xlent, your scoot is BEAUTIFUL - AWESOME paint job, and the pipes look smoking!&nbsp\\; How loud are they?

 

Sundog wasnt hard made up a bracket which attaches to where the orig holes are and mouted cyl to that also made up new linkage from cyl to brake pedal Steve the orig baffles are loud i also lost some power i now have the quiet baffles and run them without the packing qietened them down a bit and gave me back,,back pressure which i seemed to loose
