Default Thunderheader!!!

I am still new to Harley and have had my bike since December. Went with RC Slip ons with the full matte black heat shield when I bought it. Sounds good but i intended to get some vance and hines big radius pipes down the road.

I heard my first thunderheader bike today in person for the first time. Holy ballz! F-in thing screams! I gotta get one! Not a huge fan of the style but my god it sounds amazing!

There's no sound like a thunderheader IMHO

I saw that but it looked like that price doesn't include the heat shields???

Love mine. They're not much for looks but to me that simple, gritty, basic appearance is exactly what I like. But the sound is what I really love. I love passing a big rig on the highway so I can hear the sound echo off the trailer hahaha.

Yea check out direct cycles, stay away from cycle solutions. I just ordered some parts for my bagger through them 2 weeks ago and still don't even have tracking numbers for all my parts. They are terrible about answering the phone and returning emails or messages. Horrible customer service. You might consider saving the money and not opting to run the shields on the TH. Just watch your right pant leg those bastards run hot

Default Canada Shipping

Yes, we can definitely ship to Canada.

We do not charge extra on top of the shipping rate. Whatever our discounted rate is with USPS or Fedex, is the price you pay.
Please let me know if you want a shipping quote, I can have the International team get a price. All we need is your Postal Code.

Thank you guys for recommending us! We can save you some money on Thunderheaders for sure! =D

Here is a pic of one out Staff's Softail with the Black Thunderheaders on it. They are a few years old. It looks great, but you definitely don't want to brush your leg up against it.
