Hi all. Im new to the forum here and was looking for some advice on a bike I just purchased. 2018 Softail Heritage 114.
On the showroom floor this bike was upgraded to a rienhart exhaust. I told the salesman who was trying to charge me 700 for them, I wanted the stock exhaust put back on when I picked it up four days later. They agreed...
i looked at the exhaust today at pick up andasked if this was the stock exhaust? They replied oh yea. Ive never seen this bike with black heat shields. So after getting her home and doing a little research they dont look anything close the the stock exhaust. The heat shields look like theyre from a street bob and who knows about the mufflers??
Why would they put black heat shields over the mufflers? Are these even the proper muffler for this bike and motor? Plus they did a **** job. The lower one is scratching the upper and theres a couple bent areas from a previous clamp or install. Can someone enlighten me on this matter?
Look on the back side of the mufflers with a mirror or remove the heat shields. There's usually a part number for the muffler stamped on plus some EPA info. Look up the number and see what they fit. Yours doesn't look like Heritage cans but I may be wrong.
Go to h-d.com..click motorcycles...scroll to near bottom of page...click 2018 models....scroll to your bike and click. In my opinion the mufflers and heat shields you have are not even close.
