I’ve been a picky tuner in the past (dyno, race tuners, etc) and I think my previous bikes have benefited, but I have to say that my stage 2 with SE street tuner runs flawlessly and is among the best of the bunch. I think you’ll be really happy with it and still good on warranty.

Got a set in the shop now. Trying to muster the courage to add an additional $400+ to the cost for tuning. Did you tune and with what? Glad you like them. I may have to bite the bullet and do it.
Funny thing is last week I rode to the dealership to check out bikes....like I hadn't already, right? In any event on the way I was making a list of what I disliked about my Heritage so I could justify looking at Street/Road Glides. In all honesty I couldn't really come up with much. I've owned 15 bikes in the last 20 years and this may be my favorite. I'm sure I'll move to something else before long as that's my history but for now I'm really loving this bike!

Yeah, I put the Canons on....too quiet, but it was late ‘17 and panic was high. I’m partial to the Cobra Neighbor Haters and your Rineharts. The consensus seems to be, if you have the SE tuner, you’re in good shape.

Bassani: Louder volume
Rinehart: Deeper tone
That is not to say Rineharts are not loud or Bassani lacks deep tones. It is simply a comparison of the pipes as I heard them on 18-19 Heritages. Remember that tuning, inserts, baffles, etc, can alter the volume and tone of any exhaust.

Lots of discussion you can look up in these threads.
Good quality long correct size tork head bit and an impact gun, is what has worked for most. Adding heat can help if you are careful not to damage the surounding area.
I messed up the bolt heads and wound up drilling the heads off and the used a vice grips to turn the bolt shanks...beast of a job.
If you don't have the proper tools, get a shop to do it for you. Will be worth the price, believe me.

Yes, it may not be red but is super strong.
