The FM ceramic header has been on back-order ever since they started offering it. That's why I went with the stainless header from FM and never looked back. The X-pipe construction from the materials and quality of welds, collector design, etc., from FM and Fullsac are far superior to a gutted stock header. This is especially important when you want to run closed-loop with wide-band O2 sensors up at the exhaust port outlets. An 09 stock header pipe has the bungs up there for the 18mm sensors, but still fails in the area of collector design.

Dissipates the heat even more. You have the cat less pipe which obviously helps and then the coating provides an extra layer of heat disposition.

So, after getting a little bonus check and it sitting on the counter for several weeks, I finally get selfish and decide to order headers for the bike. Come to find out, Vance and Hines, Rush, and Rinehart are all back ordered. Anyone else seeing the same thing? Have a new road glide and immediately put 4 inch Rinehart slip ons but need more sound and less heat.....thus the headers. Also heard from the dealer that Rinehart is supposedly coming out with some "incredible" true duals mid july. What you say
$330 from dennis kirk. Mine are on the brown truck now, with the rest of my stage one.. people seem to really like them.

Had the 2.25 installed and working out just fine. Still curious about the 2.0 so ordered off Amazon as well. How did the install go? The baffles you removed are still usable? Thanks.

I put the Vance & Hines dresser duals on my 2013 Ultra Limited a couple of weeks ago. I already had the Rinehart 4" exhaust. I wasn't happy with the Rinehart sound, but the dresser's really sound good. I ordered mine from Fuel Moto and they had them in stock. One plus is that when I'm on the Interstate I can still hear the radio, but when you twist the throttle, it really comes alive.
