Default big radius pipe question
i ordered a set of V&H Big Radius pipes, looks like it the right passenger floorboard will need to be raised? anyone know if the pipes come with a relocation plate?

When I bought mine it did. That was 2011. They sound and look good I think.

My used 09 Street Glide came with a Big Radius. Not for me. Anyway my wife always bitched about her right foot being uncomfortable. Finally got around to trying to adjust the pegs and when I did I discovered this spacer that moved the peg out and up.

Yea I've installed these pipes on several tour bikes, there is a special spacer than raises the right pass peg out of the way

Yup, I used to have some on my '09 SG. Bought them new and they came with a floorboard relocation bracket.

They work with floorboards. My RK has them installed. Better Half? always complained about them also. They look good and sound good. Just better for a solo rider bike.

Had the big radius 2-1 on the fxdf. It came with a right side peg spaced. Loved that exhaust
