Python Venom Radius pipes

Got a few questions about the new Python Venom Radius pipes...

1.) I read somewhere that they fit all softails except Rocker and one other model.........Is this true???

2.) If this is true, then why would they not fit the Rocker if every other brand/model of Softail pipes fits the Rocker??? What makes these different?

3.) If they in fact WILL fit, then please someone tell me b/c they are cheaper than the V&H Big Radius (by about $200!!!)...and b/c they're a little shorter, I think they would look better on my bike.

Thanks guys.


Here's pics of the 2 to compare.

Also, does anyone have a phone number for someone that works for Python???

There's not one of their website, nor is there a number for Drag Specialties who is their main distributor...

Any contact info would be great.

Thanks.

The V&H Big Radius pipes really aren't very big in radius...the part that makes them look big is the heat shields...

The Pythons appear to be actual size of the pipe in view...b/c I don't see any seams in them where they "slip-together" like the Big Radius does...

I want a 2 into 2, one solid piece (per pipe) exhaust system.

What are anyone's thoughts on the 2...

Anyone got any suggestions other than these?

Which one has a more throaty-growl like the typical deep Harley sound???

Hey Kainam, got a phone # for V&H, Python, or Drag Specialties?

I'd like to call and find out why they say that they fit every other Softail except the Rocker and one other...

No, sorry I do not. That email is the quickest way I found to reach DS.
