Rinehart Emissions-Compliant Full System
Asheville, North Carolina based Rinehart
Racing has released what it is describing as
its "revolutionary Slimline Catalyst Duals
exhaust system for 2017 and later Harley-
Davidson Touring models. This full system
exhaust has been cleared by the California
Air Resources Board (CARB) and has met the
requirements of the Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) as legal for sale and
installation in all 50 states."
The new system features a proprietary Power
Flow catalyst "engineered to outperform
even 'open' catalyst-free systems. The results
observed in independent dynamometer
testing show significant increases in power
and torque compared to stock exhausts and
other emissions-compliant systems currently
on the market.
"Other design features promise to make this
latest rendition of Rinehart's classic exhaust
system a must-have for Harley Touring
motorcycle owners. The unique design moves
the catalytic converter away from both the
rider's and passenger's legs and feet,
providing a cooler and more enjoyable ride.
The system also features 12 mm and 18 mm
O2 ports, optimally placed for dyno tuning
and proper measurement of exhaust gas
concentration from the port, allowing the
engine to perform efficiently."
Sold as a complete system with a choice of
Rinehart 4" slip-on mufflers or Rinehart 4.5"
