Default Sik Pipes Scare the Wife, looking to trade

Ok, put a set of Double Barrel Sik Pipes on wife's 883 after I installed her 1250 kit. Put lollipops in the ends of the pipes & bike is a beast now. Only problem is she's scared now after she burnt her hand when she's reached down one time getting off the bike (pipes have the heat shields but she reached down to the end to fix her bottom of her pant leg & caught the back of her wrist on the end of top pipe. I know, don't say it.
So looking to trade for a different set of black double pipes or a 2-1 black setup up. Not really interested in selling outright due to being without pipes if they sell & we ride every chance we get now that the weathers warmed up here. Pipes fit any sportster due to their own brackets he makes with the pipes. Pipes are all black & in great shape and ready to bolt up & go once I take them off hers.
Let me know what you've got & we can figure something out.
Will add pics shortly

Nice pipes, but understand the "happy wife = happy life" situation. Why not buy a new 2-1 exhaust (e.g. Bassani Road Rage) and then put these up in FS section? I don't think many are willing to park their ride & wait for you to receive, swap, return an exhaust...JMO.

Point well made! I love these pipes (even though she freaked out) but the new 2-1 pipes from Sik won't be ready for 3 months. So if I sell these, then I've got bust out another $400 or so on pipes to get by until the new Sik Pipes get done. So then I'd have over $1k into pipes for her bike & less $ to blow on cool ups for my SG lol. She'll ride with these pipes on now, she's just got to be more careful lol. Now if he calls & has the new ones ready then up for sale these go!

If you decide you want a chrome 2-1, I've got a Bassani Road Rage I'd swap with you.
