Rineharts
I have 300 miles on my Rineharts. For me their a little too loud. Sound really good above 3000 but still to loud cruising from 2-3000.I guess 48 yrs
of bikes and rock n roll have me rethinking this bike lol. Gonna get another RB Racing Black hole 2/1 pipe, like I had on my 2014 Limited. Probably
sell these like new Rineharts. Getting old sucks.
I'm wondering if SE Street Cannons are the way to go? or are they still too quiet? I'm not willing to buy them brand new, I can't believe the price of them.

I agree. I'm looking for something with quality sound but not super loud. I realized I needed pipes when a random guy approached me after rolling into the gas station. he asked if my bike was a Harley...? he couldn't believe how quiet it was. ha.

called Cobra, their Heritage/Deluxe pipes (model 6048) will be out in 6 - 8 weeks. The Breakout/Fatboy version is already in stores.

Heel shifter
I wanted to put a heel shifter on my Cherry. Was only available in chrome. Bought it and had it powder coated black. Fortunately, there is a local powder coating shop near by and for a small part, if you wait till he is doing a biger gloss black job, he will include the part at a very reasonable price. Did the same thing with a Helmet lock that was only available in chrome.

Heel Shifter restricts foot position
However, to answer your question, yes the heel shifter lever does limit some what where your foot can rest on the floorboard, but I don't find it uncomfortable. I feel the positive value of the heel shifter outways the slight restriction on foot position.

I rode my Heritage for 188.6 miles and only 10 miles showing on the remaining fuel range. Stopped for gas filled tank up to the top and it only held 4.107 gallons. What's up with this? I thought we were suppose to have a 5 gallon fuel tank.

Got a question for you guys. Do you go to the dealership for Service Internals, or do it your self. I did the 1000 miles service at dealer and for our 1 and only dealer in Hawaii it cost nearly $600. I am now at 5000 miles and contemplating paying for oil change at dealer or just do it my self.
I think the Heritage is amazingly economical, I reckon I'm getting close to 50mpg. Don't trust what the remainder says, This tank can go over 200 miles depending on speed etc.

$600 for a 1k checp up is a rip off. Should be included in the sales price. Anyway, I would do oil changes my self or find a good indie. Keep all receipts to prove work was done for warranty purposes.
BTW, I will be retiring to Oahu in the future. I have a place in Hawaii Kai. Thinking whether it makes sense to ship my 2018 Heritage Classic there or buy used whenever that may be. I love the riding there, but not sure if I would get island bored after a while. Are there plenty of rides to keep interest up? I see lots of baggers, just dont see the need if no over nighters needed.
