looking at Rinehart slipons for my 2022 SGS , been a VH fan the last 3 touring bikes , been listening to lots of videos and such , lots of reading on how the VH Torquer 450 slipons are very bigand cause a loss of tourque , ill be doing a sage 2 after breaki n period and keeping factory headpipe though . looking for feedback from sone Rinehart owners with a M8 thanks

my buddy has these on his 2018 CVO Road Glide with a SE Stage 3 kit and I think it's the best sounding M8 exhaust I recall hearing..he says there are no performance concerns whatsoever and loves them..they just sound 'right' for a Harley IMO

my wife has a set on her bike and she loves them. they are slightly louder than the se full flow exhaust system that i have on my bike, with a little more 'thump' to it. i actually think her's sounds better, but there are other reasons why i went with the se exhaust, so no plans to change mine out. no seat of the pants notice of torque loss with them either.

I have the DBX 40 on my ‘21 SG along with the Slimlime Duals header. They sound fantastic. I also have a cam in mine, so YMMV.

We checked out several vendors in Daytona two years back. My wife selected the DBX45’s as the best sound of all she heard on a stock motor. We had them installed. You will notice a slight loss of low end torque with these. But it was all worth it with the beautiful exhaust note. Fast forward and we installed the HD SE Stage III kit. Wow, it woke these pipes up like I never dreamed possible and brought back all the torque plus some.

I have had friends ask me how they can make their bikes sound like mine. A guy in a group we rode down to Myrtle Beach with last year said it was the best sound he has heard. A guy working at Myrtle Beach HD came out to our bike when we pulled in to see what exhaust we have. He went and told the sales manager and service manager that they need to get some of these in stock!

Plus they are a NC product and look great!

I swapped out my DBX 4.5s for Torquer 450s due to the power loss from the Rineharts.

I put the Rinehart motopro 45 on my 2019 when it was stock and didn’t notice any torque loss. They also were not very much louder than the stock mufflers. After about a year I changed the headpipe , cam, Air Cleaner and tuned with a Powervision and then you could hear the Rineharts. They’re not loud but have a nice deep tone you can hear but still hear the radio at 70 mph. And no torque dip or torque loss whatever they claim 4.5 mufflers do.
