Default what full pipes will fit on the rocker w/o any mods?

Having trouble figuring out which pipes will fit on the Rocker C without any heavy mods. Was told V&amp\\;H big radius will not fit and that Samson's will need to have the heat shield cut.

Any info and pictures is much appreciated.

V&amp\\;H Staggered shortshots fit - I did drill out the holes in the mounting bracket to 1/2". I put on black pipes, but they also come in chrome for all of you chrome lovers!!

You can put the Vance and Hines BR on. I just dropped my bike at off at my shop and my guy was putting on a set on a Rocker for a customer without any mods.

I read something about a BR not fitting.&nbsp\\; V&amp\\;H says they will not either.&nbsp\\; I say something on here that says to use GIB'S bracket.&nbsp\\; Who is this guy and what is the bracket?&nbsp\\; Are they for sale somewhere?

I'm Gib.....

The bracket is something I designed after seeing how poorly the pipes fit my bike with the included bracket.&nbsp\\; Mine moves the pipes farther inboard to eliminate the binding created between the heads and frame when using the Vance &amp\\; Hines supplied bracket.&nbsp\\; It also makes sure that the upper and lower pipes are parallel from the side and top.&nbsp\\; If you need one, just shoot me an email.

As far as what pipes actually fit.....So far, the only thing that fits without alignment issues is the Big Radius 2 into 1 pipe.&nbsp\\; The Short Shots Staggered will fit, like the Big Radius, but there are alignment issues as well, and I'm currently working on a bracket for those.

Go with Gib.
The service guys at the dealership really liked the way the pipes fit.

So do I!
