Oh but they do... The 07-08 models do come with the O2 bungs.. I've done my research and everytime I look at them I'm that much closer to buying them.. lol

I want the fourbiddens also but i've been told the same thing about them not fitting the Rocker. They look like they would clear the oil tank without a problem. Keep us informed on how they fit and any adjustments you had to do.

Talking Hooker Fourbidden on 2005 Fatboy

I got the Fourbiddens for my 2005 Fatboy. Installed them and ran about 200 miles on them. Very good sound and more bottom end. Great pipes. I sold them on ebay to reorder the chrome version. Had the silver ceramic. Pipes ran cool. Link below is you tube with pipes sounding off.

I would have to think the chromed versions would blue failry easy.. The ceramic coated would prolly be a better way to go.. If they blue then wrap em with header wrap.. I'm not sold on the wrap and in some instances it holds too much heat on the pipes for my liking however it would be a way to hide some sins if you know what I mean..

I can tell you first hand that wrapping the pipes reduces the heat for sure, or at least it did for me. I can easily rub up against it w/o giving myself 3rd degree burns unlike a stock pipe....and as far as sins go, you nailed it. Mine are hiding what is left of a plastic bag melting on them...

Got behind a new Crossbones with a set on tonite. Not only did it sound great, but it matched perfect too.
He had the straight out dump instead of the side dump which mine has and it sounded all together different in a sweet way. Much louder and a bit deeper too.
