I am looking to sell my cycle shack tapered slip-ons from my '08 1200c.
This winter I am doing stage 1 plus full new exhaust.

Sent you a PM.
Ryan.

V&H straight shots pull the baffles.

Rineharts sound the best, IMO.

This is crap shot, but I can tell you that S&S or D&D slip on's work great and sound great and will not totally destroy the bottom end performance like some of the pretty aftermarket systems.
I have used Cycle Shacks a couple of times also but they sound tiney compared to the others I have listed.

V&H Straighshots. But put in the quiet baffles. It'll bring the loudness down to a lower pitch that won't wear on you during longer rides. You'll be much happier with them and it's much easier to install them before you put the pipes on the bike.

What are you talking about????? Pre-'04 exhaust are every where. Exhausts from '86 to '03 should fit your '00 sporty. http://search.yahoo.com/search;_ylt=...501-s&ei=UTF-8 All you got to do is look!

Oh, and you can add the slip-ons to an '00 sporty without needing to change any gaskets, etc. There's only a mounting bolt towards the end of each slip-on and the clamp bolt where the slip-on meets the exhaust header pipe. Might need to loosen the heat shields, but that's just loosening the hold clamps.
