    stock exhaust

    I have a Vance&Hines 4 into 1 on my bike. It doesn't fit correctly. Looks OK, but rubs on turns. Questions are, what years, models, ect. of stock pipes can I look for? Shouldn't one off a 1000 of some sort flow sufficiently?

    There are at least several thread on the forum where there is some discussion on what pipes fit different bikes.

    I know on my "L", the exhausts are shorter and different than my "C". What part rubs on the turns?

      From the little picture, it looks like you have a V&H Sidewinder. It's designed for straight line racing. Most other 4 into 1 pipes will give you plenty of cornering clearence but may drag on large speed bumps. Good stock pipes for the 78 thru 80 chain drive 1000's (non "L") may be a bugger to find. Just my opinion

        They'll be damn near impossible to find actually. I suggest getting the CORRECT Vance and Hines exhaust..not that straightliner piece of junk.

          The bottom of the tail is the part that rubs

            Can you post a bigger picture of the bike?

            A couple of different angles would help, but yeah, it sounds like you have the drag race special version of their pipe.

              I am in need of a sidewinder header and I have a V&H header to trade. It is off of an 831100E though.
              Well gang, will it fit?

                I can try to post bigger picture. Yes, if it will work, I'd be interested in a trade

                  Yah...will fit just fine. Except for maybe the rear mount flange, but that can be easily overcome.

                      ANDDDD actually, if you have problems figuring out the rear mount, I have a meg laying about FROM a 750 VH pipe. Its got some dings in the backside, but the chrome looks good. I would be happy to swap you out, as i can always use 1100 stuff too..
