BTW, I will be "blacking out" those rear lights first thing..

What are you going to use to black them out?  BTW, the B looks great with a blacked out exhaust and a dark tinted windshield.

Damn Gary!  That's a CVO like accessory list.  Did you mouse have a seizure and just keep clicking?
LOL!!! I had to "CVO" it. :D :D

As someone posted earlier in most cases it's cheaper (and most times warranty <of them> will be longer if accessories are added at time of purchase), so may as well throw the OEM P&A on them at time of purchase. :nixweiss:

I was just on the BMW K1600 forum and there's already chatter about your mufflers.  Good luck.

Thanks Mark
The crowd was a little divided? One guy didn't like the "chrome" end caps? Others suggested six exits would be a desirable look.  That's not going to happen, Lol.. Hopefully there will be enough Harley converts that appreciate clean functional parts to make this worth while.

Read in this thread or elsewhere that one of the complaints on the BMW was the lack of accessories.  You Doodled the hell out of that complaint.  :drink:

not sure yet if I will use a dark tint or paint. Will depend on how hard the brake light covers are to remove. My son just tinted his on his car and they look great and work fine when on.

I think your new mufflers look good. Considering the expected price difference, I think you'll do well.

Steve, these looks good.  Everyone has their likes and dislikes - but having six mufflers because the bike is a six cylinder would look ridiculous, and add unneeded weight to boot.  I'm not really a fan of the Remus exhaust because it has four mufflers - the single muffler is a cleaner look, IMO.  I like the silver end caps - it gives just the right amount of accent.  Perhaps if these go into production, you could offer silver or black end caps.

I think that's going to happen sooner rather than later Steve.  It looks like they've already got more than a few Harley riders that have crossed over....even CVO owners.  I can only see that increasing in the next couple of years as more and more cross over and share their personal experiences with their Harley riding friends. 

That exhaust looks a lot nice in this photo than the stock OEM exhaust does on the bike.  Of course, BMW purists will be resistant at first but eventually, they'll cross over also.

Also as the Harley price keeps going up, and they keep taking content from the bike.  My 2009 CVO RG was 31,995.  Had a back rest and everything else this 2018 does.  Heck my 2012 was only 1K more than the 09, and it lost a back rest.  This 18 was 41K.  Has less than either of those bikes.  And I worry about it Sumping.  Also then do not have lowers available for it, because harley thinks they do not fit, but they do.  So if you want to add them you have to buy it piece by piece for 1800 dollars, vice the 1000 dollars for the first two CVO road glides.

Harley really needs to get a fix fast for the M8, and quit skimping on quality and features.

Nice job Steve. Really cleaned up the bike. Even if no power increase they just look so much better. If you do get a bump in power it is just icing.

Much nicer than those huge, trash can looking stock OEM mufflers.
