Some of the technology that go in to some Vance and Hines exhaust system is a power chamber which is a unique cross over system that delivers the power of a 2 in to 1 race system while still maintaining a dual pipe look. Full coverage heat shields were pioneered by Vance and Hines. They produce unique 220 degree aftermarket heat shields which hide the bluing of head pipes as well as protecting the rider from the heat of the head pipes and mufflers. Stepped headers are another concept that is used in some of the Vance and Hines systems. This concept is race breed, which is now available for street on sport bikes. Stepped headers create different speeds for the exhaust gases to travel which helps create more power and torque. Hot tips are also a nice addition for cruiser bikes that are available by Vance and Hines. Hot tips are available for Longshot and Straight Shot Exhaust systems to allow a even more customized look for your motorcycle exhaust system.
