Known for making some of the highest quality exhausts in the market , S & S Cycle has unveiled what it says is its first exhaust product for Indian touring models . The recently launched Broadhead and Fishtail slip-ons fit the Indian Chieftain and Challenger platforms . The Broadhead slip-ons feature slash-cut end caps that open to the sides " and gracefully follow the lines of the factory bags . The internals include stainless main baffles with removable dB reducers that allow you to tune sound and power to your liking . Broadhead slip-ons are available in black or chrome ." The Fishtail is a subtle take on a classic shape with an elaborately cast aluminum tip as well as the same durable internals as other S & S slip-ons . " We ' re thinking the Fishtail is probably a better fit for the Chieftain than the sportier Challenger , but it will definitely fit both ," says S & S VP Marketing David Zemla .

Trekker Outback EVO
The evolution of GIVI ' s top-range Outback EVO aluminum cases goes far beyond a restyling , with " 16 dedicated moulds , changes to components , loads of technique and , for the first time , a side case with a contoured shape ." The line will initially consist of a 58 liter top case , a 37 liter left side case and a 33 liter right side case ( the 4 liter capacity difference is due to the contouring ). The bottom of the side case is split into two levels , GIVI ' s first case to offer this feature . " It ' s the perfect solution for Adventure motorcycles with a high exhaust on the right side like the BMW GS and Harley-Davidson Pan America ." Technical solutions of the Outback EVO cases include lower hooks on the side cases for a better mechanical
seal over time , which can be repaired in the event of strong impacts , top and bottom corners featuring eyelets across the whole range to incorporate strap loops and make the attachment to the tubular handles stronger , also making it easier to carry the case even while wearing gloves , an advanced hook system to control the angle of the side cases from the frame , a lid rotation system on side and top cases , so it can be removed completely , and a cam-side
coupling / release system with anti-vibration points , using cast aluminum and stainless steel levers . The positioning of these contoured cases keeps loads closer to the central axis while complying with the applicable regulations regarding maximum motorcycle width . The trio of cases is expected to arrive on the market in spring 2023 .
