Well I stumbled across what I feel like was a good deal on a set of 2018 CVO takeoff pipes. I plan on installing the Fullsac baffles in them and gutting my headpipe. Going to take the money I’m saving and get a Zippers 468 cam kit from Fuel Moto and have it installed locally, I just recently purchased the tuner from them. Thanks for all of the input, I wasn’t planning on going this route but I like the look of the gloss black pipes and finically it just made sense. Now I have to see if I can get my factory heat shields powder coated to match the exhaust.

 

Sounds like a good plan mate......best of luck, should be a fun machine....

 

Take a look at the mods in my sig. I have the Rinehart header and the 4.5" muffs. That combo is killing my torque. I would be better suited to a 2 into 1 setup. Down the road I may do that. But it does sound killer!

 

My first steady asked me that exact same question. I told her I'd be gentle.

 

I see what you did there. LOL

 

You'll like the results of your build. It will make a world of difference.

I don't know that I would do powder coat on the heat shields, you might want to consider high heat Cerakote. It will hold up to the heat, most powder coat won't.

 

Im hoping to find a set of CVO gloss black shields, no luck so far cant even find a part number. I wonder what coating Harley uses on them.

 

I think when you see how much they want for the black heat shields you may want to go a different direction, but maybe not.

Yea i saw that, hoping to find a set used or figure out if someone can match the coating.
