Default My customizing has begun

I got my '08 Road King Classic just over a week ago, and with help from my dad and some buddies I got some Rinehart True Duals, Arlen Ness Big Sucker, and PCIII installed. The bike runs great and sounds amazing. Rineharts are definitely THE best sounding exhaust on the market. And I love how gettin' rid of the crossover cleans up the side of the bike.

Nope. It's a fact. As a matter of fact, 8 out of 10 doctors recommend Rinehart pipes. The other two doctors were drunk when they were polled and misunderstood the question.

I have a buddy that has your setup on a Road Glide, and it sounds pretty good also. It's one of the better soundin' 2-into-1's I've heard.

That IS a nice exhaust, but after a while the heat and sun will turn your black anodized tips purple. Just something to keep an eye on.

Thanks. I will. I'll be ridin' the bike from South Carolina to Indiana and backthe end of the week. The following week, I'll be ridin' it across South Carolina for Myrtle Beach Bike Week. I plan on puttin' some miles on this bike.

Yeah I've seen that on other Rineharts. When that happens, I'll wind up gettin' the chrome tips so I don't have to worry about that anymore. Rinehart sure is proud of their tips, though. They want about 100 EACH for those things!

Can you powder coat them and still leave the engraved "Rinehart" in silver?
