Arrived a few hours ago, installed IMMEDIATELY! Initial assessment: Quality of finish : MADE IN USA!
As good or better than any other Rinehart I have had (3 sets). Made by Clearline Industries in Iowa, here's a link to their site LINKY Looks like a pretty good outfit...

Warranty is 18 (yes 18 Months). Surprising in this day and age of ever decreasing warranties...

Fit:
Packaged well, no damage, installed easily, fit PERFECT!

Now for sound assessment:
These are definitely Rineharts! If you are looking for quiet, this isn't it. I only rode a short distance with these, but when you twist the wrist, they growl and bark. Louder than my old Bub 7s, MUCH louder than the V&H Ovals they are replacing. I love the look, big, round and the familiar end caps that have grown on me over the years. So here are some pics and a short video shot outside so there is no muffling noise or walls to reflect any sound.

Sounds better than they used to, but not as good as CFR's.

I agree they sound better than they have in the past but I'd still rather have a thunderheader.

Hey Mike, Red is look'n and sound'n great. Those 4 inch cannons do total justice to your bike. Thanks for the time and effort to post the results!!! Now you'll have a nice pair in your avatar and yer sig pic.

PS. How much louder than the Bubs? Deeper tone than the Bub's?

Hunter,
on a scale of 1-10, 10 with the Bubs being at 1 I would say 4....LOUDER than the Bub 7s, much deeper. Not obnoxious though. Rode a short city/highway loop tonight and was easily able to hear the CD AND the pipes...nice combo IMO...

Man, those pipes sound sweet and look awesome!! Now I'm even more anxious to get my 4" Riny's!

Those pipes sound a bit more aggressive than my buddy's Jackpots (09 RKC, 96"), but far less raspy than my other Bud's Bassani's (06 CVO RK 110"). So, just what I was hoping for. Now I just have to wait for the good'ol U.S. Postal Sevice to get the goods to me in Alaska

Thanks for putting in the time for the Forum BigDaddyMike!

By-the-way ...thats one sharp-*** Road Glide you got there. Oh yeah ..."best avatar on any forum" too!

Ah Man! Got my shipment in from Fuel Moto today! (Got the V&H Power Duals, the new 4" Rinehart mufflers, PCV, and stage 1 filter kit). I can't wait to get it all set-up on my SG! But it looks like I'm going to have to wait until at least Sunday evening ...pesky wife wants me to take her Halibut fishing this weekend

By-the-way ...Kudos to the U.S. Postal Service. They've been doing real good lately on getting my goods to Alaska. This shipment left Wisconsin on Tuesday, and I got in in Alaska on Friday morning. Thats pretty damn good! Thanks USPS!
