I have the same true duals on my '06 Softail Deluxe. The only problem I have with them is that left side header pipe that bends out under your leg and then goes down and back, that sucker gets hotter than hell. I bought another small, 8" chrome heat shield to put over the existing heat shield to try to disperse some of the heat. In the summertime it gets so hot, when I come to a stoplight if you're looking at me, you can see me dancing around trying to keep my leg away from it. 🔥
My fiancée just bought a bike with these on em, and you're not kidding. She has the burn to prove it. We ended up putting a leather heat shield on (Captain Itch makes one specifically for these duals) that goes over the pipe. You can still feel "hot" but no more burns. Another chrome heat shield was on the short list of things to try, though.
Great Video! Picked up the same system used but I'm missing that upper bracket. Can't find a replacement as the system is discontinued. How necessary is it?
Thanks for the video I've been worried about fitting the crossover pipe through the engine and if I would have to remove anything cause as you know it's a snug fit through there, putting duals on my 08 deluxe tomorrow

I just got a used set of these pipes and searching install instructions. Going on my 99 fatboy. Thanks for sharing! Beautiful bike btw!
