Bassani True Dual Pipes With Long Fishtails For Harley Softail 2007-2017

Bassani True Duals with Long Fishtails: The Heart of the Vicla Style

For the rider building a Harley-Davidson Heritage Classic, Deluxe, or Slim into a masterpiece of “Cholo” or “Vicla” style, the Bassani True Dual Fishtails are the only choice. This exhaust system is designed for the 2007-2017 Softail chassis and focuses on achieving that perfect, symmetrical balance that only a True Dual system can provide. Unlike the factory 2-into-2 systems that exit on one side or use a crossover, Bassani runs individual head pipes from each cylinder, giving your bike a cleaner look and that distinct, rhythmic exhaust “crack” that defines the Twin Cam engine in a dual-pipe configuration.

Iconic Aesthetics and Engineering Precision

The standout feature of this system is, of course, the Long Fishtail Tips. These non-baffled, straight-through pipes are designed to extend well past the rear fender, creating the long, low profile required for show-winning custom builds. The pipes are constructed from 16-gauge steel and feature full-coverage 220-degree heat shields. These shields are critical for air-cooled V-Twins, as they ensure the show-quality chrome remains “blue-proof” even under heavy summer riding conditions. The head pipes are 1-3/4 inches in diameter, providing the necessary backpressure to keep your 96″, 103″, or 110″ Twin Cam running smoothly while delivering an aggressive, high-decibel bark that is unmistakable on the road.

Expert Installation & Tuning Advice

As specialists in custom Softail builds, we know that installing “Long-Boy” fishtails requires a bit of extra attention. Pro Tip: Because these pipes extend so far back, they are susceptible to vibration. Always use the Bassani-supplied mounting brackets and ensure all hardware is torqued to spec with blue Loctite. Riding Note: Be mindful when backing into curbs or loading onto trailers; the length of these pipes significantly changes your “approach angle” at the rear. Fuel Mapping: Since these are non-baffled straight pipes, your bike will run lean if not properly tuned. We highly recommend a Vance & Hines Fuelpak FP3 or Dynojet Power Vision to richen the air-fuel mixture, which will prevent “popping” on deceleration and help keep the pipes from overheating.

The Soul of the Boulevard

The Bassani True Dual Fishtail system is more than an exhaust; it’s a statement of culture. At idle, the pipes produce a deep, crisp cadence that perfectly highlights the Twin Cam’s firing order. When you twist the throttle, they produce a sharp, authoritative roar that can be heard for blocks. It is the perfect finishing touch for a bike with 21-inch (or larger) front wheels and “beach bars.” If you want the authentic look, the unmistakable sound, and the American-made quality that Bassani is known for, this True Dual system is the ultimate upgrade for your Softail.

Fitment Note: Fits 2007-2017 Softail models (FLSTN, FLSTF, FLSTC, FXST, FLS). May require relocation of passenger pegs on certain models. Check local noise ordinances as these are non-baffled pipes.
