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.
Thanks, it helps me get a picture as I’ve heard the Rinehart in person at least. Have you checked out the Freedom Performance Duals?
this is Fishtail, but don’t love the sound....could be the camera though. Sounds like there’s no oil in that motor lol. Supposedly good quality and do have baffle options...
Removed my pillion pad to go with the solo look. The adhesive on that protective film. Takes a lot of time and elbow grease to remove it. Since the pillion was gone I removed the passenger foot pegs. It took a breaker bar to break the bolts loose that hold the brackets in place. Afterwards there was a tremendous amount of friction in removing the bolts. Almost like they were cross threaded. They used some kind of extremely strong grey thread locker and a lot of it. As hot as those bolts got I am surprised one or the other did not break off. My suggestion, after the fact, is to leave them. Or go extremely slow and use a lot of penetrating oil.
Well my long weekend of riding has been put on hold due to the suspension adjuster mounting bolt shearing off and lodging the adjuster between the shock and fender. Shock and fender will need to be replaced. Should be covered under the warranty. The dealership said its the second one theyve had come in in the last month. I asked what may have caused it and they said theyre unsure, may be that its mounted too high and constantly hitting the seat might break it off.

Probably a stupid question but how did you discover the bolt was broken? Was there a noticeable difference in the ride or were you just pulling the seat and found the issue?

I was riding to work and felt it pop under the seat. I pulled the seat off when I got there and saw it was broken.
Has anyone removed the bib from the tank for a cleaner look or to install a new/custom bib? If so, what does it entail and is difficult?
One screw on the back of the tank. And then the one bolt that holds the console on. Lift up the console , there are two of those push on speed nut things holding the tank bib on. Pry them off and don't destroy the little plastic posts incase you want to put it back on. Simple will only take a couple minutes.
