After a trip to my local dealer, AND a visit to the Internet, I was suprised to find I can buy V&H Big Shot staggered pipes, in America for $550.00, but the dealer wants $1300.00, even after my "DISCOUNT"?. What is the best way to buy and freight, from the US, are there some good and reliable outlets that we can source, and recommend for our use, and the use of our members? My '08 softy needs the sound of a true iron maiden.
I found MorePower racing one of the cheapest..... www.morepoweracing.com/wuuswo2306196/Exhaust/Harley-Davidson-Exhaust/Vance-&-Hines/Harley-Davidson/c-1-71-28800-4605-4606/
If you use their shopping basket there is a standard freight charge... you might like to try and get a quote, may work out cheaper.
What fuel controller you after... if Power Comander then do some reading as the green units have limited mapping ability
Try this guy as well

His prices are good but the shipping seems steep, Do your homework
I reckon I read somewhere recently that the Thundermax has now been fixed for the 08's
I got my BigShot Staggereds from http://www.easternperformance.com/, they had the best price I could find, from memory they were $399 USD, at the time about $460 australian, plus $180 shipping, easy to fit at home, you need a mate to help though, takes about 2 hrs.
Hey Ragle, just had a look at easternperformance, they have the pipes you want for $495US (plus shipping), have you given the ShortShots any thought, only $309US for your softy.
thanks mate... might order a set when i switch the heat shield for black shield.. V&H are saying they will sell seperately in a month or two.
I buy most of my parts from J P Cycles , Allways great price and fantasic service

NEVER EVERY BUY FROM AMERICAN CLASSIC MOTORS
Iv'e bought two things from American Classic Motors
Had no problems here, Why do you say that?
They have 99.7% positive feedback on over 85,000 transactions, Looks pretty good to me
I can only go by my own experience with ACM and it was good
I did say in an earlier post that his shipping seems steep and to do the homework, I also have seen posts on other forums pointing to some having problems with them
The link posted above was from 2006 and the bloke got his part in the end with an apology from ACM so I dont see what the problem is
Not trying to defend the bloke in any way I have nothing to gain by doing so but as I said, Do your homework, I did and was happy with my decision
