Has anyone purchased these exhaust pipes from FleaBay for their 05 and Up Big Dog?
I am talking about in the last few years. Not 8 or more years ago.
If you have did you manage to get them to fit?
Did they give you your money back if they didn't fit?
I've tried 3 different sets on 3 different BDs and they do not fit properly.
I can force the pipes in place but that isn't going to work.
The pictures make it sort of look like they fit but they don't.
I have a 06 K9 that has this same company's original pipes like these that actually match the pictures they are using on EBay.
But the vendor states they stopped making them that way over 8 years ago.
Those pipes fit correctly.
The new pipes do not match those older pipes even though they claim they are exactly the same.
The rear pipe is about 1.5" shorter at the exhaust mount end and the mounting tab is about 3/4" above their trans mount they send with it.
The front pipe sticks straight out way too far. You can see the front pipe is right up against the downtube which is going to burn the powder coat.
In addition to all that they use the V&H style mounts now instead of the spring clamps like the pictures show.
I hate the V&H clamps because they inevitably break off.
Vendor and FleaBay are refusing to refund my money now.
