I've got a pair of MB Daisy Cutters here off my buddies 03 Bulldog. They are basically brand new. He bought them thinking his Big Radius were done for after being hit by a car a few weeks back. Turns out he got the chrome redone and now has an extra set of pipes. Probably less than 200 miles on them. Paid about $700 for these last month and would like to get $400 for them. Feel free to make an offer as I'm sure anything reasonable will be considered.

I bought a set of these pipes for my '04 BD Ridgeback and you have to fabricate a mounting bracket for them, so you can push them out & away from the frame. Martin Bros pipes are made primarily for stock HDs or something with a narrow rear tire. They fit very nice & clear the forward controls but it requires some fabrication & welding to get them to fit.

Not true:confused:
You have to tell them to send you the spacer to go with the pipes and the bracket and it weill fit right up. Mine does.

I bought mine brand new and they were for a softail and they did not come with any spacers. I called Martin Bros and they said they were not designed for a wide tire frame and they barely clear the frame when you pull them out as far as you can get them. Adding spacers will not get you where you need to be. The exhaust header has a specific angle on the end of the pipe, so when it is tighened up it will be in the right position unless you want to run them loose. Just my two cents and the problem I had putting mine on and I am not a rocket scientist, so forget I said anything.

I have the Medustas. I told them I owned a Bigdog K-9 w/ a 300. NO problem. I have a buddy who bought the same set for a HD Deuce and his bracket was totaly different. Anyway mine bolted right up, but you do need the spacer for the Bigdogs they "MARTIN BROS" are the ones with the spacers! and THEY are the ones who sent them to YOU. The only problem I've had is the bracket broke and they sent me one and some new springs for the heat sheilds for FREE :eek:

P.S. I'm sort of "Mechanically Inclined" and I put them on in about an hour :eek:

Daisy Cutters are for left side drive only. I think the 04 Chopper are left side drive, so you should be OK

Byrddogg: I don't think thats the case buddy. These actually came off of an RSD Bulldog. They are not my pipes so they're not off the Chopper.
As for mounting, they went on his bike no problem. They come with the spacers and bracket.

ya my buddy has an 09 HD rocker c.... and he put a a set of the medustas on it, not only did martin bros NOT send the spacer to fit the little cheap bracket.... but after he finished fabricating and making a new bracket himself... he ran into the prob of the pipes hitting one of the oil lines.... they are sick pipes... just make sure u kno what ur getting into before u do.... and def worth 400
