Harley-Davidson manufactured five different Electra Glides classics between 1999 and 2005. All have the traditional Harley V-Twin engine complete with dual exhaust pipes. All Classic models use pipes that bolt to the exhaust ports on the engine heads and then secure to the frame via a bracket located on the lower left side of the frame. There are countless aftermarket exhausts that you can retrofit onto your Harley Classic.
