Default D&D...What's the difference???

Looking at August '09 issue of Baggers mag...Page 73

They list the "Boss FatCat" for model years '97-'09
The "Boss" is $300 bucks more than the FatCat.

I don't know about you guys..but $1000 smackers for a pipe is insane!

Why wouldn't the "PRE-Boss" pipes fit the '09s since the "Boss" will work on bikes back to '97 ?

Anyone know why I can't run a "PRE-Boss" FatCat???

Thanks!

They included the price of the ghost pipe with it. Real pipe is around $700 me thinks. As far as the "Boss", that is (from what I can tell on D&D's website) the designation for '09 models, not previous ones as indicated in Baggers.

The Boss has an additional bend just behind the Transmission cover to accommodate the larger rearend on the 09's.

If it was in American Bagger..............I would suspect it's an error on their part. Their proof-reading department must be full of illiterate idiots, that magazine is full of mistakes all the time.
