Complete Your Setup
This exhaust is also sold in Chrome:
- VANCE & HINES 17219 — Shortshots Staggered Exhaust System, Chrome — same name and price, but its live Fitment tab is NOT identical to this listing (it covers 26 Sportster/EFI/XR models and does NOT include the FXDF Fat Bob this Black SKU fits). Don't assume the two are interchangeable — check each SKU's own Fitment tab, or ask us using the chat widget on this page, before ordering.
FAQ — Shortshots Staggered Exhaust
+ How loud is the Shortshots Staggered exhaust — is there a decibel rating?
Vance & Hines does not publish an official decibel rating for this exhaust, so we won't guess a number here. Expect a noticeably louder, deeper exhaust note than stock. If you're subject to a local sound-ordinance limit, check your state/local regulations.
+ What's included in the box?
This is a complete Shortshots Staggered system in black, with removable baffles, full coverage heat shields, mounting hardware, and installation instructions. Pre-2007 models will need the separately-sold O2 sensor port plug kit (part 1861-0464).
+ Will this fit my bike — do the years matter?
Yes, fitment is year- and model-specific. This exhaust fits 15 Harley-Davidson models, including the FXDF Fat Bob (2008-2017, a Dyna model), plus Sportster models XL1200C Sportster 1200 Custom, XL1200L Sportster 1200 Low, XL1200N Nightster, XL1200R Roadster, XL1200V Seventy-Two, XL1200X Forty-Eight, and XL883 Sportster and its Custom/Low/SuperLow/Iron 883/Roadster/50th Anniversary variants, with the exact years covered varying by model. Use the Fitment tab above or set your bike in the Ride Finder at the top of the page and we'll confirm the exact match before you order.
+ Does the Chrome version (17219) fit the same bikes as this one?
No — we checked both listings' live Fitment tabs directly, and they're not identical. This Black SKU covers the FXDF Fat Bob (a Dyna model) which the Chrome version doesn't list, while the Chrome version (17219) additionally fits several EFI and XR1200 Sportster variants this Black SKU doesn't cover. Always confirm fitment against the specific SKU you're ordering rather than assuming the two finishes match.
+ Is there a fuel tuner that fits this exhaust?
This exhaust fits a mix of Sportster models (2004-2013) and the Dyna FXDF Fat Bob (2008-2017), and we don't have fully confirmed Fuelpak tuner coverage on file for this exact combination. Ask us using the chat widget on this page and we'll check current tuner compatibility for your specific year/model.

How do I know if this part fits my vehicle?
