I expect that one is "plug & play", provided you changed nothing else.

I was thinking of adding pods, but after reading some other discutions about them this morning. May just keep the air box. still up in the air on the intake side of things. i do like this exhaust though. the look

Its also the only reasonably priced new system available. Just don't expect the headers to stay that pretty for long.

Exaust

I had that same exaust on my SF, it sounded good but the bike needed to be tuned just right (carb syc, timing ect) or it would pop and crack in low RPM. I changed to OEM and am real pleased. OEM sell for way to much on e-bay IMHO. I still have the MAC I took off but the chrome rusts and pits bad on these. If you want to sand and paint it, it would work fine. You can have it if you want, just pay to ship, or if on vacation in Florida, just pick it up

Better yet

Keep the stock headers and get some new stock Hardly mufflers, usually free at the HD dealer 'cause everyone takes them off so they can put loud pipes on. I cut the old rotten mufflers off mine, added a 6" peice of pipe on each side and slid on those Hardly mufflers. Sounds great and no special jetting or tuning necessary. Runs just as good as stock.

I live in Fort Myers, the pipes are in good working order but pitted and surface rust all over, would be good for flat black or silver high temp paint, let me know if you are in the area and we can meet up and you can have them if you like.
