Upsweep exhaust for 09 nightster
Does anyone know where I might find such a beast? Do they exist for a bike this new? I have looked locally, everywhere I could think of, I've searched the net the best I can but haven't gotten anywhere. I've found all kinds of upsweep pipes for older sportsters up to mid 80's, but can't find some for the 09. I've spoke with HD about them and basically I've been told it'd be a custom job. No problem, until I asked about back pressure requirements. I was told "there's not really a determined spec or requirement, but it does need some" What am I supposed to do with that? Lol. If I've got to get them built, thats fine, but I'd like to plan it out so I'm not wasting time, money, and effort. Any input is greatly appreciated.

I'm considering using my stock manifolds, adding torque cones, removing the slip-ons and building from there. Addind baffles as needed. I want a pretty steep sweep so bending my own pipe is probably my best bet. I've checked into the cones and baffles, and found many options reasonably priced. I'm back to the "how much back pressure? ". Is there a spec or requirement? "Until it runs right" is not a good enough answer for me. Thanks for the help.
