VANCE & HINES - 2-into-2 Shortshots Staggered PCX Exhaust - Softail 18-24 - Chrome or Black

Assert your machine's radical, clean style with the essential Vance & Hines Shortshots Staggered PCX full exhaust system. A global bestseller in the Custom world, this system features a short, compact, and stout profile, enhanced by the famous slash-cut tips at the end of the pipes. Designed for the Harley-Davidson Softail generation with Milwaukee-Eight engines (2018-2024), this system instantly transforms your motorcycle's silhouette and temperament.

PCX™ Technology: The combination of torque and thermal comfort

This new generation incorporates patented PCX™ (Power Chamber Exhaust) technology. Beneath its heat shields, it conceals a high-flow catalytic cartridge with dual-matrix chambers. Ideally positioned downstream of the flow, this internal architecture optimizes back pressure to offer:

• Stronger acceleration: A significant gain in mid-range torque for instant and dynamic throttle response.

• Effective thermal barrier: A drastic reduction in heat radiation of up to 20% at the footpegs/floorboards and up to 50% at the manifold, significantly improving riding comfort in summer or urban environments.

• A legendary sound signature: A deep, cavernous rumble, particularly throaty and aggressive, embodying the quintessential American Hot-Rod sound.

Full anti-bluing heat shields

To ensure your exhaust system maintains its immaculate appearance year after year, the system integrates full heat shields with an outer diameter of 2-1/2" (6.35 cm). Precision plasma-cut to provide full 220° coverage along the entire length of the pipes, they perfectly insulate the inner steel from thermal stress and virtually eliminate any risk of visible yellowing or bluing.
