I have heard that BUB and rinehart split. If I understand you right Rinehart does have true duals available for cvo 110 Ultra?
How would a person order them?
I really like the sound and would buy them again but get this, I had them on my 06 road king put 60k on them had several issues (starter bracket weld broke away from pipe, baffle shook lose had to replace entire slip on, anodizing on the tips faded/discolored bad) The only thing BUB took care of was the braket and one tip. When I sold the bike 2 weeks ago the other slip on needed replaced. BUB told me to pound sand..............
Man they sound awesome though

Sounds very similar to my experience with Vance & Hines Pro Pipe.  The cone broke where the baffle screws in....three weeks past the warranty....and they wouldn't replace the cone.  A member of this forum gave me a cone that he had laying around.  Two months later a weld brakes on the bracket and they wouldn't replace it.  Vance & Hines is a POS and they suck!

I think it's pretty rare you'll find very many large companies that will fix things for free or replace for free after the warranty has run out.  I wouldn't go so far as to call V&H POS because of that.  I've been running V&H exhausts and pipes since 2002 and have had good luck with them.

Warranty applies only to original purchaser.  So no warranty applied on the latter hand-me-down.  The former is beyond warranty.  If only by weeks.  If a company offers support beyond warranty they should be praised.  If they don't they should not be damned.  It is a specified term that we know beforehand.

Just as it would be unfair for a company to tell us "ah man, it's only got one day left in warranty; can we just forget the warranty since it's so nearly expired?" it's also whiney of us to suggest they are POS because they won't go beyond the warranty period for free replacement.  Works both ways.

Sorry, been on night shift from the time I got it until now.  I checked it was a 20 lbs difference.

Extenuating circumstances were that the exhaust system, while just a couple weeks past the year old, it had less than 2,000 miles on it!  That was documented by the mileage on the work order at the time of the install and at the time the cone broke.  I should think that they would have stood behind it on a good faith position, if nothing else.

The cone shouldn't be breaking where the baffle screws in....at anytime.  Neither should the welds break.  My position remains......a POS!

If every company honored "good faith" repair or replace, they'd be out of business.  You got a bad one, plain and simple.  It happens.  Had pro pipes on my 08 SG and didn't have an ounce of problem with them. (Except they went with the bike when I sold it. )  I really liked those pipes.  Fit, finish and performance of Vance and Hines pipes in my opinion, is great.  That's all I use.
