Morton's Executioners Exhaust 12/17/12

[260warrior]

So today I bit the bullet and ordered my Morton's Executioners in chrome. I talked with Doug and want to clarify with everybody in here. The pipes are shortened as much as possible from the original design. He said there about an inch or two past the rear mount. I was worried about scrapping since mine is lowered. And from what ive read most people do. After speaking with Doug Morton himself, he assured me they are cut shorter and have been like that for about 6 years. I will post some pics when i get them on. He said they should be in the mail tomorrow. (Great customer service so far)

I had the exact same experience with Doug. I expressed my concern and though he was steadfast that they wouldn't scrape, he shortened them so they are only a couple inches past the mounting bracket. He even added an o2 port for my PCV autotune.

A couple of tips though:

One, the mounting bracket is crap. It did not line the pipe up right so I had to drill a new hole between the prefabbed holes to get them to mount right.

Two, the flanges are shi*t! They are Harley flanges and are much smaller than the Yami ones. When you go to put them on, the bolts will barely cover the flanges. You need to use a few washers. Otherwise, you will end up just bending the flange. (don't ask me how I know this! )

Forget the Yami torque spec of 14 front and 17 rear. After I bent the rear flange and talked to Doug, he told me that those specs were for Yami pipes, not theirs! He said to just tighten them down til they were snug and leave it at that. Why they don't make their flanges to at least the same specs as original, I can't figure out but suffice it so say, you will NOT be able to torque them down per spec without bending the sh*t out of them. Trust me on this one! It would be nice if they gave you that info with the pipes but they come with zero instruction!

They told me that they expect their pipes are going to be installed by professional pipe fitters who would know not to torque them down as much. C'mon! Two bolts and they expected me to take my bike to the shop for that? In the end, they were okay though. They sent me a new flange and all is right in the world.

Oh, and another thing, they look way better shorter than the original longer version!

Thanks for the info. I have read some issues about fitting, hoping for the best. I agree they look better shorter than original. These and the FSD exhaust are the only custom pipes you can find for this bike. That look bad a$$ by the way.

Ill post pics when installed

260,

wadave is correct in every point. I also put some comments in this thread below. Looking to seeing some pics on your bike GL.

Morton's Executioner Pipes

So I got the pipes in less than 4 days. They look great and took a little bit of wiggling to get on correctly but no problem. They sound great and I do know I will scrape a bit for those who are interested in these pipes FYI. Anyway here is a link to the video on youtube ENJOY
oh yeah and they shoot flames at night lol ill get a video of that next.
