Default Oxygen Sensors

Getting ready to order some V&H Big Radius pipes, I am presently not running the sensors on my "06" Bob as I have a PCIII installed. I am considering just putting plugs (http://www.jpcycles.com/product/4400305) in the new pipes. This is the first set of pipes I've switched out myself in about 9 years (last bike had a carburetor), just wondering if this would create any issues.
Thanks for your help.....

Aren't the radius pipes about the same as what you've got on now?

Similar, I have Python Staggered Duals made by Vance and Hines. They were on the bike when I bought it and were not in the greatest shape. I added baffles (helped but still don't sound that good) and had them coated. The Big Radius are shorter, sweep up, and then curve towards the ground.

Those plugs will be fine. You might be able to get some from a muffler shop for less money.

You can get them there, but its probably easier to just go to any of the big chain auto parts stores.
Don't forget to get a new set of gaskets, the old ones will probably not be much good at this point.
