Exhaust change

[Mek5o]

I want to change how the exhaust come out rear of trike. its a 2011 Harley sportster L1200L with Lehman Raider kit, any recommendations on how I can do this ? pipes currently come out right side side by side. Want one on either side ! I'm thinking i just need to move one pipe, but not sure how to do this or where to find exhaust pipe to make it happen.

Thanks Michael

Hi Michael. The front pipe will not be a problem it is the rear pipe that will take some serious fabrication. I would suggest draw up what you want to do then take it to an exhaust shop to have them look @ your plans to give you a cost factor. IMO it will not be cheap. Good Luck

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far, away....

The MoCo used to provide true dual exhaust on iron head Sporty's.... So their around the front concept is one option for routing the pipes (Ness liked to do this with Digger Sportys back in "the day").



Here are the OEM pipes are separated from the bike



Here is another Concept

There are lots of Custom exhaust shops out there that can fix something like these up for you









Here are what the pieces look like



and one more...



The crossover pipe was made by putting a U shaped dip in the pipe to get it, and the heat, away from the belt.

The pipe comes out on the other side as close to the case as possible to make it appear it came from under the bike

The rear muffler support bracket mount on the frame is used to mount the pipe.

A support arm is welded to the right pipe. The left pipe is pretty solid with stock attachment schemes but one is added for peace of mind

I L.O.V.E. love customizing trikes....

Here is the exhaust for my latest science project.... It was born of an idea, then a sketch, then some tube and a mig welder....



Now they are on my engine....

Good luck with your project!

PS.... There are homebulder kits for laying out and mocking up custom exhaust. If you cut and tape together what you want, a good mig guy can stitch it up and a chrome/ceracote shop can finish it off..

You can get really creative with these things....

Mek50.... I found a shop called Raysons in the UK that does beautiful bespoke exhaust... They are a straight shot up the M6 from you on the other side of Manchester. Could be a nice rideThumbUp Might want to give them a ring.
