Default Rinehart Racing

I recently had a minor problem with one of my Rinehart slip-ons. So I sent an e-mail to their warranty department describing the issue and supplied them with a pic to illustrate what was going on. I have had Rinehart's on all my bikes for years and never ever had a problem with anything I ever got from them. So, I really didn't know what to expect. Man was I ever surprised. I got a response from them saying they would look into it right away. And they did. They took care of the issue pronto! No argument.

There's no question that Rinehart makes a high quality product. But they back that up with service too. People need to know that when shopping around.

Just one bit of advice for you....

If you pull the pipes and decide to buff the chrome, don't bother taping the endcaps... painters tape will pull the black paint/coating off.

Ask how I know...

Dennis Manning (Bubs pipes / Rinehart) runs a legit business and has been around for more than 30 years. Customer loyalty is top priority, top that off with the guy is just cool as hell.

I was under the impression that in late 2009 Rinehart terminated their agreement with BUB and since 2010 a company called Clearline LLC has been manufacturing Rinehart exhausts.

^ You might be right. It's been a few years since I stopped their shop.

Sputhe engineering and Bubs pipes are both in my backyard and sometimes I forget to stop in and say hello.

I haven't had any issues with my Rinehart's and IMO they have the best exhaust note. The Bubs I'm currently running have nearly the same sound just toned down with sound baffles.
