<h2>Acoustic Engineering &#038; Power Performance</h2>
<p>### Optimized Baffle Dynamics for Milwaukee-Eight Engines</p>
<p>Factory Softail mufflers trap excessive heat and muffle exhaust pulse resonance. The Vance &#038; Hines Supersport slip-on features an optimized internal baffle system designed to reduce exhaust restriction. This allows your 114ci, 117ci, or 121ci Milwaukee-Eight engine to exhale freely, delivering immediate mid-range pull and a satisfying, deep exhaust note.</p>
<p>### Key Performance Benefits</p>
<ul>
<div><strong>Streamlined Weight Reduction:</strong> Lighter than bulky stock muffler setups for better overall handling dynamics.</div>
<div><strong>Deep V-Twin Acoustic Bark:</strong> Replaces factory whisper-quiet cans with a crisp, aggressive V-Twin tone.</div>
<div><strong>Thermal Management:</strong> Full-coverage shields insulate legs and boots against radiant exhaust pipe heat.</div>
</ul>
<hr />

<hr />
<h2>Step-by-Step DIY Installation Guide</h2>
<p>Installing the Vance &#038; Hines Supersport Slip-On on your Harley Softail takes under 45 minutes using standard shop tools.</p>
<p>### Required Tools</p>
<ul>
<li>3/8&#8243; Drive Ratchet with 1/2&#8243; and 9/16&#8243; sockets</li>
<li>Torx key set (T27 / T30)</li>
<li>Exhaust clamp removal tool or combination wrenches</li>
<li>Penetrating lubricant</li>
<li>Clean microfiber towel</li>
</ul>
<p>### Step 1: Removal of Factory Softail Mufflers</p>
<p>Ensure the bike is completely cool and securely supported. Apply a light film of penetrating oil to the muffler joint connections. Remove the mounting hardware securing the stock mufflers to the lower frame support rail. Loosen the factory Torca clamps holding the mufflers to the header pipe, then gently twist and slide the stock mufflers rearward off the head pipes.</p>
<p>### Step 2: Prepping Clamps &#038; Slide Alignment</p>
<p>Slide new heavy-duty exhaust clamps over the inlets of your new Vance &#038; Hines Supersport slip-ons. Apply anti-seize or lubricant to the header pipe tips to facilitate smooth sliding and positioning.</p>
<p>### Step 3: Mounting the Supersport Mufflers</p>
<p>Slide the Vance &#038; Hines mufflers forward onto the header pipe outlets until fully seated against the stops. Align the rear bracket mounting points with the frame support bracket. Finger-tighten the mounting bolts, ensure proper tip alignment, and torque all hardware and clamps to factory service specifications.</p>
<hr />
<h2>Frequently Asked Questions</h2>
<p>### Is an ECU re-tune required when installing Vance &#038; Hines Supersport slip-ons?</p>
<p>If you are retaining the factory air cleaner and stock header pipe, an ECU re-tune is not strictly required. However, pairing these slip-ons with a high-flow air intake and an aftermarket tuner (such as the Vance &#038; Hines Fuelpak FP4) will maximize horsepower, torque gains, and engine running efficiency.</p>
<p>### Are optional quiet baffles available for this muffler?</p>
<p>Depending on the specific core configuration, Vance &#038; Hines offers optional quiet baffles (sold separately) that reduce total sound output by 2 to 3 dB if you prefer a slightly subdued volume on extended highway tours.</p>

<h2>Acoustic Engineering &#038; Power Performance</h2>
<p>### Louvered Core Baffle Design for Trike Power</p>
<p>Milwaukee-Eight trikes carry significantly more weight than two-wheeled touring models, placing heavier demands on the engine during acceleration. Factory exhaust mufflers trap heat and restrict airflow. Vance &#038; Hines designed the Twin Slash system with an optimized louvered core baffle that balances backpressure, protects low-end pulling torque, and delivers a deep bass rumble without harsh highway drone.</p>
<p>### Key Performance Benefits</p>
<ul>
<div><strong>Enhanced Exhaust Scavenging:</strong> Streamlines exhaust pulses to improve throttle response across low and mid-range RPMs.</div>
<div><strong>Deep V-Twin Acoustic:</strong> Replaces the muted factory exhaust note with a deep, authoritative bark under load.</div>
<div><strong>Thermal Management:</strong> Full-coverage shields keep extreme exhaust heat safely channeled away from the chassis.</div>
</ul>
<hr />
<h2>Vehicle Compatibility Guide</h2>
<p>Vance &#038; Hines Twin Slash Round Slip-On Mufflers offer direct, 100% bolt-on fitment on all 2017–2026 Harley-Davidson Milwaukee-Eight trike platforms using factory headers:</p>
<p>### Compatible Harley-Davidson Trike Models (2017–2026)</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Harley-Davidson Freewheeler:</strong> FLRT Milwaukee-Eight 107ci / 114ci (2017–2026)</li>
<li><strong>Harley-Davidson Road Glide 3:</strong> FLTRT Milwaukee-Eight 114ci (2023–2026)</li>
</ul>
<p><em>Fitment Note: Designed specifically for Milwaukee-Eight trike models with factory head pipes. Will not fit older Twin Cam (2015–2016) Freewheeler models or standard two-wheeled Touring bikes without appropriate header configurations.</em></p>
<hr />
<h2>Step-by-Step DIY Installation Guide</h2>
<p>Upgrading your Harley trike exhaust with Vance &#038; Hines Twin Slash Slip-Ons takes under 45 minutes using standard shop tools.</p>
<p>### Required Tools</p>
<ul>
<li>3/8&#8243; Drive Ratchet with 1/2&#8243; and 9/16&#8243; sockets</li>
<li>Torx key set (T27 / T30)</li>
<li>Exhaust clamp removal tool or combination wrenches</li>
<li>Penetrating lubricant</li>
<li>Clean microfiber towel</li>
</ul>
<p>### Step 1: Removal of Factory Trike Mufflers</p>
<p>Ensure the trike is completely cool and safely supported on a level surface. Spray penetrating oil onto the inlet joint connections. Unbolt the rear mounting screws located near the rear body work holding the stock mufflers to the frame brackets. Loosen the factory Torca clamps on the header pipe, then gently twist and slide the stock mufflers rearward until free.</p>
<p>### Step 2: Prepping Clamps &#038; Slide Alignment</p>
<p>Slide new heavy-duty exhaust clamps over the expansion inlets of your new Vance &#038; Hines Twin Slash mufflers. Apply a thin layer of anti-seize or lubricant to the header pipe tips to facilitate smooth positioning.</p>
<p>### Step 3: Mounting the Twin Slash Mufflers</p>
<p>Slide the Vance &#038; Hines mufflers forward onto the header pipe outlets until fully seated against the stops. Align the rear bracket mounting points with the trike frame mounts. Hand-tighten the mounting bolts, verify that both twin slash tips align evenly with the body cutouts, and torque all hardware and clamps to factory service specifications.</p>
<hr />
<h2>Frequently Asked Questions</h2>
<p>### Is an ECU re-tune required when installing Twin Slash slip-ons on a trike?</p>
<p>No. If you are installing these slip-on mufflers while keeping the stock air cleaner and factory header pipes, an ECU re-tune is not mandatory. However, pairing them with a high-flow air intake and an ECU tuner (like the Vance &#038; Hines Fuelpak FP4) will maximize horsepower and torque gains.</p>
<p>### Do these mufflers clear the rear bodywork and bumper of the Freewheeler and Road Glide 3?</p>
<p>Yes. Vance &#038; Hines specifically sizes and shapes the inlet length and body profile of these trike slip-ons to match the exact rear body cutouts of the FLRT Freewheeler and FLTRT Road Glide 3 chassis.</p>

<h2>Acoustic Tuning &#038; Power Performance</h2>
<p>### Louvered Core Baffle Design for Milwaukee-Eight</p>
<p>The factory exhaust headers on 2017–2026 Milwaukee-Eight Touring models contain integrated catalytic converters that naturally dampen sound. Vance &#038; Hines engineered the Twin Slash 4&#8243; mufflers with a specially tuned louvered core baffle system that restores natural V-Twin acoustic depth without causing harsh cabin drone during long highway runs.</p>
<p>### Key Performance Benefits</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Enhanced Flow Velocity:</strong> Streamlines exhaust pulses to improve throttle response across low and mid-range RPMs.</li>
<li><strong>Deep Bass Tone:</strong> Replaces the muted factory exhaust note with a deep, authoritative bark under load.</li>

<hr />
<h2>Step-by-Step DIY Installation Guide</h2>
<p>Upgrading your Harley Touring exhaust with Vance &#038; Hines 4&#8243; Twin Slash Slip-Ons takes under 45 minutes using standard shop tools.</p>
<p>### Required Tools</p>
<ul>
<li>3/8&#8243; Drive Ratchet with 1/2&#8243; and 9/16&#8243; sockets</li>
<li>Torx key set (T27 / T30)</li>
<li>Exhaust clamp removal tool or combination wrenches</li>
<li>Penetrating lubricant</li>
<li>Clean microfiber towel</li>
</ul>
<p>### Step 1: Removal of Factory Touring Mufflers</p>

Unbolt the rear mounting screws located under the saddlebags holding the stock mufflers to the frame brackets. Loosen the factory Torca clamps on the header pipe, then gently twist and slide the stock mufflers rearward until free.</p>
<p>### Step 2: Prepping Clamps &#038; Slide Alignment</p>
<p>Slide new heavy-duty 2-inch exhaust clamps over the expansion inlets of your new Vance &#038; Hines Twin Slash mufflers. Apply a thin layer of anti-seize or lubricant to the header pipe tips to facilitate smooth positioning.</p>
<p>### Step 3: Mounting the Twin Slash Mufflers</p>
<p>Slide the Vance &#038; Hines mufflers forward onto the header pipe outlets until fully seated against the stops. Align the rear bracket mounting points with the saddlebag frame mounts. Hand-tighten the mounting bolts, verify that both twin slash tips align evenly in the saddlebag cutouts, and torque all hardware and clamps to factory service specifications.</p>
<hr />
<h2>Frequently Asked Questions</h2>
<p>### Is an ECU re-tune required when installing Twin Slash slip-ons on a Touring bike?</p>
<p>No. If you are installing these slip-on mufflers while keeping the stock air cleaner and factory header pipes, an ECU re-tune is not mandatory. However, pairing them with a high-flow air intake and an ECU tuner (like the Vance &#038; Hines Fuelpak FP4) will maximize horsepower and torque gains.</p>
<p>### Will these mufflers fit with stretched or aftermarket saddlebags?</p>
<p>Yes. The standard 4-inch diameter and classic 45-degree slash cut fit cleanly beneath both standard OEM saddlebags and most aftermarket extended/stretched bagger bottoms.</p>

This design balances backpressure to protect low-end torque while opening up gas flow velocity for instant throttle delivery when twisting the grip.</p>
<p>### Key Performance Benefits</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Aggressive Exhaust Note:</strong> Transforms quiet factory exhaust tones into a deep, crisp V-Twin bark under acceleration.</li>
<li><strong>Anti-Blueing Technology:</strong> Plasma-cut heat shields surround the inner muffler body, keeping outer temperatures low enough to protect the surface finish.</li>
<li><strong>Optional Quiet Baffles Available:</strong> Compatible with Vance &#038; Hines quiet baffles (sold separately) for riders who prefer a slightly lower decibel output on long trips.</li>
</ul>
<hr />

<hr />
<h2>Step-by-Step DIY Installation Guide</h2>
<p>Installing Vance &#038; Hines 4&#8243; Twin Slash Slip-Ons on your Harley Softail takes approximately 30 to 45 minutes using standard shop tools.</p>
<p>### Required Tools</p>
<ul>
<li>3/8&#8243; Drive Ratchet with 1/2&#8243; and 9/16&#8243; sockets</li>

Hand-tighten the mounting bolts, ensure the twin slash tips align symmetrically with the frame, and torque all hardware and clamps to factory service specifications.</p>
<hr />
<h2>Frequently Asked Questions</h2>
<p>### Do I need to re-tune my 2025–2026 Softail after installing Twin Slash slip-ons?</p>
<p>If you are retaining the stock air intake system, an ECU re-tune is not strictly required. However, pairing these slip-ons with a high-flow air cleaner and an aftermarket tuner (like the Vance &#038; Hines Fuelpak FP4) will maximize power output and optimize fuel-to-air ratios.</p>
<p>### Are optional quiet baffles available for this system?</p>
<p>Yes. Vance &#038; Hines offers optional replacement quiet baffles that reduce exhaust output by approximately 2–3 dB while maintaining a deep V-Twin acoustic profile.</p>

<h2>Engine Performance &#038; Power Output</h2>
<p>### Optimized Backpressure for Twin Cam 103 Engine</p>
<p>The 2015–2016 Harley-Davidson Freewheeler is powered by the high-output Twin Cam 103ci engine. Stock mufflers trap heat and create excessive backpressure, which chokes engine performance—especially under the heavier weight of a three-wheeled chassis. Rinehart&#8217;s 4&#8243; slip-on mufflers feature a specially tuned performance baffle that improves exhaust gas scavenging, increasing torque where trikes need it most: right off the line and through mid-range acceleration.</p>
<p>### Key Performance Benefits</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Horsepower &#038; Torque Gains:</strong> Measurable gains across the entire powerband when replacing stock mufflers.</li>
<li><strong>Lower Thermal Load:</strong> Improved exhaust velocity helps carry heat away from the rider and passenger area.</li>
<li><strong>Deep V-Twin Acoustic:</strong> Delivers a deep bass tone at idle and a crisp, authoritative bark under hard acceleration.</li>
</ul>
<hr />
<h2>Vehicle Compatibility Guide</h2>
<p>Rinehart Racing 4&#8243; Slip-On Mufflers (Part #500-0104 Chrome / #500-0105 Black) are engineered for direct, 100% bolt-on fitment on the 2015–2016 Harley-Davidson Freewheeler trike platform:</p>

<li><strong>Harley-Davidson Freewheeler:</strong> FLRT Twin Cam 103ci (2015)</li>
<li><strong>Harley-Davidson Freewheeler:</strong> FLRT Twin Cam 103ci (2016)</li>
</ul>
<p><em>Fitment Note: Engineered specifically for 2015–2016 Freewheeler trike models with factory head pipes. Will not fit two-wheeled Touring models or Milwaukee-Eight (2017+) engine setups without appropriate header adapters.</em></p>
<hr />
<h2>Step-by-Step DIY Installation Guide</h2>
<p>Upgrading your Freewheeler trike exhaust to Rinehart 4&#8243; Slip-Ons takes under 45 minutes using basic hand tools.</p>
<p>### Required Tools</p>
<ul>
<li>3/8&#8243; Drive Ratchet with 1/2&#8243; and 9/16&#8243; sockets</li>
<li>Torca clamp tool or combination wrench set</li>
<li>Penetrating lubricant</li>
<li>Clean microfiber towel</li>
</ul>
<p>### Step 1: Removal of Stock Freewheeler Mufflers</p>
<p>Ensure the engine and exhaust system are completely cool. Spray a light amount of penetrating oil onto the inlet joints of the factory mufflers. Remove the rear frame mounting bolts holding the stock mufflers under the rear body work. Loosen the exhaust pipe clamps at the head pipe connection, then gently twist and slide the stock mufflers rearward off the head pipes.</p>
<p>### Step 2: Preparing New Clamps &#038; Alignment</p>
<p>Slide new 2-inch heavy-duty barrel exhaust clamps over the expansion inlets of your new Rinehart 4&#8243; slip-ons. Align the inlet end over the stock head pipe outlets.</p>
<p>### Step 3: Mounting the Rinehart 4&#8243; Mufflers</p>
<p>Slide the Rinehart mufflers forward onto the header pipes until fully seated. Align the rear bracket mounting points with the trike chassis frame mounts. Finger-tighten the rear mounting bolts, adjust the tips so they sit centered in the body openings, and torque all hardware and clamps to factory specs.</p>
<hr />
<h2>Frequently Asked Questions</h2>
<p>### Do I need to re-tune my 2015–2016 Freewheeler after installing these slip-ons?</p>
<p>No. If your 2015–2016 Freewheeler has the stock air cleaner and factory head pipes, an ECU tune is not strictly required. However, adding a high-flow air intake and an aftermarket tuner will maximize power gains and optimize fuel-to-air ratios.</p>
<p>### Are these mufflers the same length as standard two-wheel Touring slip-ons?</p>
<p>No. Rinehart specifically designs Freewheeler slip-ons to match the exact rear body cutouts and shorter overall frame clearance of the FLRT trike chassis, ensuring a flush, factory-like appearance.</p>

<h2>PCX Technology &amp; Engine Performance</h2>
<p>### High-Flow Catalyst &amp; Mid-Range Acceleration</p>
<p>Standard aftermarket drag pipes or open mufflers often suffer from a loss of backpressure, resulting in a sluggish low-RPM throttle response. The PCX<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> (Power Chamber Exhaust) cartridge uses a double-matrix chambered high-flow catalyst. This creates effective exhaust pulse scavenging to boost torque right in the primary 2,000 to 4,000 RPM cruising range.</p>
<p>### Rider Comfort &amp; Thermal Management</p>
<p>By positioning the high-flow catalyst downstream inside the muffler body, PCX technology helps reduce radiated exhaust heat—lowering overall operating temperatures at the rider footboards and passenger pegs compared to unshielded stock exhaust systems.</p>
<hr />
<h2>Vehicle Compatibility Guide</h2>
<p>The Eliminator 300 slip-ons (Part #16321 Chrome / #46321 Black) are engineered specifically for the floorboard-equipped, dual-muffler Softail chassis and provide total clearance for OEM saddlebags:</p>
<h3>Compatible Harley-Davidson Softail Models (2018–2024)</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Heritage Classic:</strong> FLHC (2018–2021)</li>
<li><strong>Heritage Classic 114:</strong> FLHCS (2018–2024)</li>
<li><strong>Softail Deluxe:</strong> FLDE (2018–2020)</li>
</ul>
<p><em>Fitment Note: Engineered specifically for FLHC, FLHCS, and FLDE models. Will not fit mid-control or peg-control Softails (such as Street Bob, Low Rider S/ST, or Fat Boy) which require distinct mounting bracket configurations.</em></p>
<hr />
<h2>Step-by-Step DIY Installation Guide</h2>
<p>Upgrading your Heritage Classic or Softail Deluxe with PCX Eliminator 300 slip-ons takes approximately 30 to 45 minutes using standard shop tools.</p>
<p>### Required Tools</p>
<ul>
<li>3/8&#8243; Drive Ratchet with 1/2&#8243; and 9/16&#8243; sockets</li>
<li>Torque wrench (ft-lbs)</li>
<li>High-temperature copper anti-seize lubricant</li>
<li>Rubbing alcohol and a clean microfiber cloth</li>
</ul>
<p>### Step 1: Removal of Factory Mufflers</p>
<p>Ensure the motorcycle is completely cool and safely resting on a kickstand or lift. Loosen the factory Torx exhaust clamps connecting the stock mufflers to the OEM collector head pipes. Remove the rear mounting bolts from the frame support bracket under each muffler. Twist and gently pull the stock mufflers rearward off the head pipes.</p>
<p>### Step 2: Preparing the PCX Eliminator 300s</p>
<p>Apply a thin coating of high-temperature anti-seize onto the expansion joints of the factory collector pipes. Slide the new heavy-duty Torca barrel clamps onto the front inlets of your Vance &amp; Hines Eliminator 300 slip-ons.</p>
<p>### Step 3: Mounting and Alignment</p>
<p>Slide the Eliminator 300 mufflers onto the head pipes until they seat against the stopper stops. Align the integrated mounting channels with your frame’s rear bracket points. Thread in the mounting bolts finger-tight. Check from the rear to confirm both 3-inch muffler bodies sit level and clear saddlebag mounts.</p>
<p>### Step 4: Torque Specs &amp; Degreasing Wipe-Down</p>
<p>Torque the rear mounting bracket bolts to <strong>18 ft-lbs</strong> and the front barrel clamps to <strong>38–42 ft-lbs</strong>.<br />
<em>CRITICAL WARNING: Clean all chrome or black surfaces thoroughly with rubbing alcohol prior to starting the engine. Fingerprints or oil residues left on the exhaust will permanently bake into the finish when heated!</em></p>
<hr />
<h2>Frequently Asked Questions</h2>
<p>### Is fuel re-tuning required for these slip-ons?</p>
<p>Because PCX technology maintains proper backpressure and airflow balance, fuel tuning is optional if installed on an otherwise stock bike. However, adding a tuner like the Vance &amp; Hines Fuelpak FP4 will optimize throttle response and air-fuel ratios for maximum performance.</p>
<p>### Can I install quiet baffles in the PCX Eliminator 300?</p>
<p>No. Due to the internal chambered catalyst core of the PCX cartridge, these slip-ons are not compatible with standard optional quiet baffle inserts.</p>

<h2>PCX Technology &amp; Engine Performance</h2>
<h3>High-Flow Catalyst &amp; Mid-Range Acceleration</h3>
<p>Standard open exhausts can cause a loss of backpressure, resulting in a sluggish low-RPM throttle response. The PCX<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> (Power Chamber Exhaust) cartridge uses a double-matrix chambered high-flow catalyst. This creates effective exhaust pulse scavenging to boost torque right in the primary 2,000 to 4,000 RPM cruising range.</p>
<h3>Rider Comfort &amp; Thermal Reduction</h3>
<p>By positioning the high-flow catalyst downstream, PCX technology helps reduce radiated exhaust heat—lowering temperatures at the foot pegs and passenger area compared to unshielded stock exhaust systems.</p>
<hr />
<h2>Vehicle Compatibility Guide</h2>
<p>The Eliminator 300 slip-ons (Part #16312 Chrome / #46312 Black) fit standard duel-muffler Softail models equipped with factory staggered head pipes:</p>

<hr />
<h2>Step-by-Step DIY Installation Guide</h2>
<p>Upgrading your Softail with PCX Eliminator 300 slip-ons takes approximately 30 to 45 minutes using standard shop tools.</p>
<h3>Required Tools</h3>
<ul>
<li>3/8&#8243; Drive Ratchet with 1/2&#8243; and 9/16&#8243; sockets</li>
<li>Torque wrench (ft-lbs)</li>
<li>High-temperature copper anti-seize lubricant</li>
<li>Rubbing alcohol and a clean microfiber cloth</li>
</ul>
<h3>Step 1: Removal of Factory Mufflers</h3>
<p>Ensure the motorcycle is completely cool and safely resting on a kickstand or lift. Loosen the factory Torx exhaust clamps connecting the stock mufflers to the OEM collector head pipes. Remove the rear mounting bolts from the frame support bracket under each muffler. Twist and gently pull the stock mufflers rearward off the head pipes.</p>
<h3>Step 2: Preparing the PCX Eliminator 300s</h3>
<p>Apply a thin coating of high-temperature anti-seize onto the expansion joints of the factory collector pipes. Slide the new heavy-duty Torca barrel clamps onto the front inlets of your Vance &amp; Hines Eliminator 300 slip-ons.</p>
<h3>Step 3: Mounting and Alignment</h3>
<p>Slide the Eliminator 300 mufflers onto the head pipes until they seat against the stopper stops. Align the integrated mounting channels with your frame’s rear bracket points. Thread in the mounting bolts finger-tight. Check from the rear to confirm both 3-inch muffler bodies and CNC end caps sit level and parallel.</p>
<h3>Step 4: Torque Specs &amp; Degreasing Wipe-Down</h3>
<p>Torque the rear mounting bracket bolts to <strong>18 ft-lbs</strong> and the front barrel clamps to <strong>38–42 ft-lbs</strong>.<br />
<em>CRITICAL WARNING: Clean all chrome or black surfaces thoroughly with rubbing alcohol prior to starting the engine. Fingerprints or oil residues left on the exhaust will permanently bake into the finish when heated!</em></p>
<hr />
<h2>Frequently Asked Questions</h2>
<h3>Is fuel re-tuning required for these slip-ons?</h3>
<p>Because PCX technology maintains proper backpressure and airflow balance, fuel tuning is optional if installed on an otherwise stock bike. However, adding a tuner like the Vance &amp; Hines Fuelpak FP4 will optimize throttle response and air-fuel ratios for maximum performance.</p>
<h3>Can I install quiet baffles in the PCX Eliminator 300?</h3>
<p>No. Due to the internal chambered catalyst core of the PCX cartridge, these slip-ons are not compatible with standard optional quiet baffle inserts (e.g., #21947).</p>

<p>Made in the USA from heavy-gauge steel and wrapped in high-density thermal fiberglass packing, the Eliminator 400 Quiet Baffle tones down harsh high-pitched exhaust barks while preserving essential engine backpressure for broad low-end torque response.</p>
<hr />
<h2>Technical Specifications &amp; Product Details</h2>
<p>The **Vance &amp; Hines Quiet Baffle** (Part #21859) for the **Eliminator 400 (4&#8243;) Slip-On Mufflers** is designed to tone down the exhaust volume while deepening the overall exhaust note.### Key Details &amp; Specs* **Part Number:** Vance &amp; Hines **21859**<br />
* **Decibel Reduction:** Lowers sound output by approximately **2 dB to 4 dB** compared to the standard baffle.<br />
* **Tone:** Reduces harsh high-frequency harshness, producing a deeper, rumbling exhaust note rather than an aggressively loud bark.<br />
* **Fitment:** Engineered specifically for Vance &amp; Hines **Eliminator 400 (4-inch)** Touring Slip-On Mufflers (commonly installed on Harley-Davidson Touring models).<br />
* **Performance:** Provides slightly more backpressure, which can help smooth out low-end torque on some fuel-injected setups.&#8212;### What to Expect vs. Standard Baffles| Feature | Standard Eliminator Baffle | Quiet Baffle (#21859) |<br />
| :&#8212; | :&#8212; | :&#8212; |<br />
| **Volume Level** | Loud, aggressive roar | Moderately loud, deep rumble |<br />
| **Harshness/Bark** | High under heavy acceleration | Mellowed out, smoother |<br />
| **Highway Drone** | Noticeable at steady speeds | Significantly reduced for long rides |<br />
| **Backpressure** | Lower | Slightly higher |&#8212;### Installation Tips1. **Tools Needed:** Allen wrenches, a small slide hammer or hook tool, and thread locker (e.g., Loctite 243).<br />
2. **Removing Old Baffles:** Standard baffles can stick due to heat cycling and carbon buildup. Spray a light lubricant (like WD-40) inside the end cap perimeter and let it sit before pulling.<br />
3. **Inserting New Baffles:** Ensure the fiberglass wrapping stays tightly wound around the baffle body during insertion. Wrapping painter&#8217;s tape around the fiberglass can help compress it; the tape will burn off harmlessly once the exhaust gets hot.<br />
4. **Secure Fasteners:** Always apply medium-strength thread locker to the retaining screws to prevent them from vibrating loose.</p>

<h2>Performance &#038; Sound Comparison</h2>
<h3>Preserving Low-End Torque &#038; Engine Backpressure</h3>
<p>Unlike simple exhaust restrictors that choke motor performance, the Vance &#038; Hines Quiet Baffle uses a stepped internal tube structure wrapped in high-temp muffling material. This design maintains the tuned backpressure needed for strong low-to-mid range torque response on stock and Stage 1 tuned V-Twin engines. You get a quieter ride while keeping the snappy throttle response the Pro Pipe is famous for.</p>
<h3>Sound Level Matrix: Standard vs. Competition vs. Quiet Baffle</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Competition Baffle:</strong> Loudest option with open high-flow core; ideal for track and high-RPM performance builds.</li>
<li><strong>Standard Baffle:</strong> Moderate-to-loud exhaust note with aggressive bark under throttle.</li>
<li><strong>Quiet Baffle:</strong> Lowest decibel output (2–3 dB drop); smooth, deep bass frequency tailored for touring comfort.</li>
</ul>
<hr />
<h2>Step-by-Step DIY Installation Guide</h2>
<p>Swapping to the Vance &#038; Hines Quiet Baffle in your Pro Pipe takes about 20 to 30 minutes using standard tools.</p>
<h3>Required Tools &#038; Supplies</h3>
<ul>
<li>3/8&#8243; Ratchet and socket set or Allen wrenches</li>
<li>Soft-face rubber mallet</li>
<li>Slide hammer or pliers (for pulling out existing baffle)</li>
<li>High-temperature copper anti-seize lubricant</li>
</ul>
<h3>Step 1: Removal of Old Baffle</h3>
<p>Ensure the exhaust system is completely cool. Unbolt the single retaining fastener located near the outlet tip on the underside of your Pro Pipe muffler body. Tap or pull the current baffle rearward out of the muffler canister.</p>
<h3>Step 2: Preparing the Quiet Baffle</h3>
<p>Apply a thin layer of copper high-temp anti-seize to the mounting collar of your new Quiet Baffle. This prevents metal galling and ensures easier removal during future repacking maintenance.</p>
<h3>Step 3: Mounting &#038; Securing</h3>
<p>Slide the Quiet Baffle into the Pro Pipe muffler body until the threaded mounting nut aligns with the hole in the exhaust shell. Thread in the retaining bolt securely and tighten down.</p>
<hr />
<h2>Frequently Asked Questions</h2>
<h3>Do I need to re-tune my fuel map after installing the Quiet Baffle?</h3>
<p>If you are switching from the standard Pro Pipe baffle to the Quiet Baffle on a stock or Stage 1 motorcycle, fuel tuning is usually optional because total airflow changes are minimal. However, re-flashing your ECU with a tuner like the Vance &#038; Hines Fuelpak FP4 ensures optimal air-fuel ratios and peak engine efficiency.</p>
<h3>Does this quiet baffle fit other Vance &#038; Hines exhaust models?</h3>
<p>No. This quiet baffle is engineered specifically for Vance &#038; Hines Pro Pipe 2-into-1 systems. Other exhaust families (like Twin Slash, Shortshots, or Hi-Output) require their own dedicated quiet baffle part numbers.</p>
