I knew something sounded funny and when I looked at the pipes I found this crack on both sets . I'm thinking J-B Weld until I get something new, I'll have to get the high heat stuff I guess

My guess would be too much vibration for JB weld . Get a muffler shop to throw a weld on it or stuff some fiberglass cloth under a large hose clamp. Best bet start shopping Big Mike has what you need if they fit.
Yeah it's going to be new exhaust time, shit that's a ton of money, if I do get a new exhaust it's going to be totally bolt-on , no dickin around with any brackets that I have to modify.

what model bike do you have?
The V&H I have will mount to a K-9 or mastiff with this https://www.ebay.com/itm/Big-Dog-Mo...163045&hash=item5b78ec260e:g:Bz8AAOSwMLNfC1W4
I've got to look and see what I paid for these -- I don't want to take a bath on them and I'd have to check on shipping (that's always the killer)
thanks Big Mike.

Look up Patriot Defender exhaust. The soft tail Harley one will fit your bike. Nice deep tone. I always got lots on complements on it.
Mr. Wright, would these fit?

They look like they should. I'll have to do some digging to find a picture of my 03 with that exhaust. Computer crashed a while back and lost all my picturesMr. Wright, would these fit?

nice! Very nice
So basically I need to look for a soft tail exhaust correct? And I will end fabricating a bracket, is there a particular Harley model to choose when I see exhaust pipes that do not mention big dog? It would have to be the same size engine. Seems like when you're buying exhaust your kind of taking a gamble whether it's going to fit or not.

When I ordered that exhaust for my 03, with a DT frame, the bracket they sent, bolted right to the frame. When I ordered it for my 04, with a RT frame, I had to make a spacer to fit it to the frame. I just ordered the one for the soft tail Harley
Did you have to pick a certain year of Harley? When I was looking at JP Cycles they wanted year of the Harley and the make. Thanks for answering my questions
