2005 Ridgeback V&H Exhaust Options

[Bdogridgeback]

Hey Guys
I cannot find the Vance & Hines 2 into 2 pipes anywhere (26021), I guess they discontinued them.
They do currently make them for the K9, anybody know if they will fit a Ridgeback?
Any other exhaust options besides stock that still retain the baffles?
Thanks
LP

I know for sure the bracket is different but I would think since they are both RSD should have the same offset for the pipes.

K9 pipes will fit your RB.... you just need to find or fab the bracket for it.

Thanks guys.
Do you guys have any preference between the supertrapp mean mothers vs the big radius.
The big radius do look sweet but looks like finding them will be tough.

I like the mean mothers over the V&H. The mean mothers sound really good!
Here's my 05 Ridge with them:

Where are you guys getting the mean mothers, having trouble looking for these as well.
Looking for the trouble makers or the V&H big radius ?
Thanks

Thanks Franco, they have them for the K9 which is ok, its finding the bracket for a Ridgeback...

It's not hard to fab your own bracket, just bolt the pipes up and you can use a piece of sheet metal or aluminum plate, drill the holes and use some long bolts with round tubing for spacers, I did it on my 05 bulldog and it worked great, of coarse if you have access to a welder that would be the better route!
This is the only pic I could find, look closely and you can see the aluminum plate under the tail end of the pipes.

Some Members here have fabricated their own... hopefully one of them will see this and will give you a hand with it.

Hi Guys,

I have a 05 ridgeback and have found a V & H 2 into 1 for the 330 rear, does anyone know if it will fit a 300mm rear frame?
Getting new brackets manufactured isnt a problem, if thats all thats required. Any advise would be greatly appreciated

Thanks in advance

Paul
