Bassani Radial Sweepers Exhaust With Heat Shields For Harley Sportster 2014-2022

Bassani Radial Sweepers: Unleash the Attitude of Your Sportster

The Bassani Radial Sweepers for 2014-2022 Harley-Davidson Sportster models—including the Iron 883, Forty-Eight, Nightster, and Roadster—are built for the urban jungle and the canyon twisties. While traditional dual pipes can limit your lean angle, the Radial Sweepers are inspired by the “bobber” and “scrambler” scenes where ground clearance is king. This system sits high against the engine cases, exposing the rear wheel and the belt drive, creating a compact and muscular silhouette that defines the “Modern Classic” Sportster look. Whether you are carving through traffic or hitting the open road, these pipes provide the aggressive presence and high-velocity performance that has made Bassani a legendary name in V-Twin racing.

Stepped Header Technology and Torque Management

Don’t let the short, aggressive appearance fool you; the Radial Sweepers are packed with sophisticated performance engineering. Bassani utilizes stepped headers, starting at 1-3/4 inches at the cylinder head and stepping up to a 2-inch primary. This transition is critical because it maintains high exhaust gas velocity at lower RPMs, preventing the “torque dip” often found in short-pipe systems. This ensures your 883 or 1200 pulls hard from every stoplight. To protect your investment, this version includes full-coverage heat shields. These shields act as a thermal barrier, protecting the inner pipes and preventing the show-quality Chrome or Black finish from discoloring due to the intense heat cycles of an air-cooled engine.

Expert Tuning & Installation Advice

As specialists in the 2014-2022 Sportster platform, we know that these EFI-equipped bikes require proper fuel management. Pro Tip: Because the Radial Sweepers significantly increase air-flow, your Sportster will run notoriously lean from the factory. We highly recommend a fuel tuner like the Vance & Hines Fuelpak FP4. A proper tune will richen the air-fuel mixture, cooling the engine and deepening the exhaust note while eliminating “popping” on deceleration. Installation Note: These pipes offer incredible ground clearance, but they sit closer to the rider’s leg than stock. Ensure you check for interference if you have aftermarket extended forward controls. Always wipe the pipes down with denatured alcohol before the first start to remove any skin oils or fingerprints, which can permanently etch into the finish during the first heat cycle.

The Legendary Bassani Bark

The sound of the Radial Sweepers is raw, mechanical, and authoritative. It delivers a sharp “crack” that cuts through ambient noise, providing a safety advantage in city traffic. Every system is 100% Made in the USA, ensuring the welds and plating are of the highest caliber. For the 2014-2022 Sportster rider who wants to combine a custom hot-rod look with dyno-proven horsepower, the Bassani Radial Sweepers are the definitive choice. They transform your Harley into a high-performance masterpiece with a soundtrack to match.

Fitment Note: Fits all 2014-2022 Sportster models. Not compatible with passenger footpegs on most models without a relocation kit. Some models with mid-controls may require specific brake rod clearance checks.
