Vance & Hines for 2018 Tourers and Softails

Hi-output slip-ons
Santa Fe Springs, California based manufacturer Vance & Hines says its“ bold and sweeping” Big Radius 2-into-2“ has all the right curves in all the right places for the Milwaukee-Eight.” Wrapped in precision-sculpted full coverage heat shields and finished with scalloped-cut ends, Big Radius“ blends radical custom bike styling with high craftsmanship.” Available for 2017-2018 Touring models in chrome or matt black with an optional quiet baffle. For 2018 Harley-Davidson Softail models, Vance & Hines’ Eliminator 300 slip-ons expand an established and popular design for the new M-8 powered Softail family. Crafted with precision CNC- machined billet
Big Radius 2-into-2 end caps inspired by the Vance & Hines flat track racer, Eliminator 300s are“ fine-tuned” with glasswrapped acoustic baffles for a“ sumptuously resonant tone.” They feature a 3-inch round muffler body and are available in chrome or wrinkle black with optional quiet inserts. Specifically for the wellreceived 2018 Fat Bob, these hi-output slip-ons in black are said to give the M-8 powered Fat Bob a“ Hot Rod rumble to match its Hot Rod performance.” Stepped, stacked and staggered,“ these blacked-out slip-ons are right on point for the radically styled Fat Bob.” Optional quiet baffle available. Also for 2018 Softails, these 3-inch slash-cuts are said to deliver“ gutsy sound and great value.” Featuring full coverage heat shields in either chrome or the company’ s new wrinkle black finish, to match the factory black heat shields, they are finished with“ the signature Vance & Hines twin slash look” and can be fitted with either optional quiet or competition baffles. For the XG Street or Street Rod, the aggressively styled high output slip-on features a blacked-out muffler body with laser etched badge to“ create a sinister look that means business”. The free-flowing muffler body that steps from 4-inches to 4.5-inches topped with a fluted machined billet end cap is said to offer improved performance.
