Dealers always turn their nose up at me when I ask for their precious harley parts for my *gasp* dirty jap bike, even though they have a bin of take off mufflers waiting to get scrapped. Try to find a local independently owned shop, not a dealer; the kind of place called something like "Joe's Cycle Shop" that works mostly on older harleys. They will have a room full of old junk that you can dig through. Since every harley rider changes their mufflers, the take offs are usually in very nice condition. Now they might not know the model or year of any of the stock they have, you can probably just carry in your stock exhaust and find something that lines up with it. These guys are always happy to get rid of that old stock and will probably charge you $15-$25. Get a clamp too, they are $8 from a dealer.
Make friends with these guys, as the savage can use many harley bars, grips, foot pegs, fenders, lights, shocks, etc... with very little effort.
