For Harley owners looking to make their ride faster and meaner, an aftermarket exhaust system is a great choice. Vance & Hines exhaust systems have long been setting the standard for the industry.
With so many options, choosing an aftermarket exhaust system can be very confusing. This article will help you understand your options to make your choice easier.
Virtually all Vance Hines exhaust systems utilize some variation of their "blue proof" technology. So, you never have to worry about losing the look of the original chrome finish. Most systems are also made in the U.S.A. with the company's high-quality manufacturing standards. With Vance and Hines, you get a quality product. Sometimes installation is a bit challenging, but I have yet to come across a kit that couldn't be installed with a little work.
