Default Short pipes for Road King?????
07 Road king building into a "old school/bobber" look and I would really prefer short pipes to the true duals out there. They will be wrapped so I hate to pay the 450.00+ for new ones.. Any ideas? Any chance softail pipes work other than mounting brackets?

Thanks for the help.

Softtail pipes are to long from the front cylinder to the bend. They run into your floorboard and brake cylinder

I really like those. Too much money for this poor boy though.
