FAQ
Questions and answers
Straight answers about ordering, fitment and options.
Ordering
Ordering and build time
How long does a set take?
Every set is made to order. We start building after you order. Most sets take 6 to 8 weeks. Need it by a date? Call 570-944-2006 or email tyler@sikpipes.com before you order.
What do I put in the order notes?
The notes are required. Tell us:
- Year and model of your bike
- Engine
- Foot controls: mid controls, forward controls or floorboards
- Anything that changes the fit, like a big air filter, extended bags or passenger boards
Be as specific as you can. You can also email your order number and photos of your bike to tyler@sikpipes.com.
Can you build something that is not on the site?
Yes. Exhaust is our main job, but we also build bikes from the ground up and make bars, mid controls, frames and other parts. See the Fab Lab, then call or send us a message.
Returns
Cancel, returns and warranty
Can I cancel my order?
Yes, before we start to build your set. The cancel fee is $100. After we build or ship your set, you cannot cancel.
Can I return my pipes?
Every set is built for your bike, so we do not take returns on a set that is built or shipped and has no problem.
If your set has a defect, we repair it and pay the shipping. There is no fee. Call 570-944-2006 or email tyler@sikpipes.com.
What is the warranty?
Every set has a 100% guarantee for 1 full year, whatever the problem. The year starts on the day you get your pipes. Call 570-944-2006 or email tyler@sikpipes.com to make a claim.
Fitment
Will it fit my bike?
Which pipe fits my bike?
Use the fit finder: pick your engine, bike and foot controls to see the pipes that fit. Each pipe page also lists its fitment. Not sure? Call 570-944-2006 before you order.

57–85 Ironhead, 86 and up Sportster, 66–84 Shovelhead, 84–99 Evo, 00 and up Twin Cam and Milwaukee 8. Pick your engine in the Engine menu on the pipe page. Some pipes are only for some engines.
I have mid controls. Which pipes work?
Built for mid controls: Shorty, Mid Control Pipe (Twin Cam and M8). Also work with mids: Bastard, Chaos, Double Barrel, Apex, Helix and XPipe. Diesel, Octane, Menace, Berta and Bagger need forward controls or floorboards. The M8 pipe is built for floorboards: call first if you run mids.

2-into-2 (two separate pipes): Bastard, Diesel, Shorty, XPipe, Berta, Double Barrel.
