Default Header / Head Pipes ?
Does anyone sell just head pipes for Sportsters? I have a 2000 and I really hate the look of the connector between the two head pipes. I have SE slipons and I'm good with the sound and performance for now, just looking for a solution to get rid of the connected head pipes. I've searched quite a bit and I don't know if I'm just not using the right phrase or what. Any suggestions or links would be appreciated. Thanks!

Just cut them and weld up the holes.

Drag pipes, cut to proper length and reinstall the mufflers back onto them. Be sure to get the right dia. pipe.
