A message from Gerald Rinehart, President
On behalf of Rinehart Racing, I want to personally thank you for your years of support and promotion of Rinehart exhaust products. We greatly value your business. Moreover, we consider you a member of the Rinehart family. As you may know, the exclusive manufacturing and distribution arrangement between Rinehart and Drag Specialties' parent company, LeMans Corporation, has recently expired. Rinehart is excited about the opportunities created by this change, including the flexibility to design and offer innovative new products that are manufactured in the United States and the ability to offer our dealers and consumers with Rinehart's hands-on customer service.
With this new chapter in the life of our company, we are now offering direct sales through our company, as well as through a new distribution arrangement with Custom Chrome. If you choose to order directly from our company, you can easily order online or by telephone. Rinehart Racing now offers a full-scale staffed sales and customer relations department making your purchase seamless and easy, which allows the Rinehart products to be more readily available to you. More importantly, any question or product-related issues can be addressed directly by a member of the Rinehart team. Because we are a family business concentrated on our motorcycle exhaust products, we have more time, more energy, and more incentive to make sure that you are satisfied with our products.
Many of you have asked about True Dual Systems for 2009-2010 FL models. Unfortunately, LeMans chose not to manufacture and distribute the 2009 Rinehart designs. However, the good news is that Rinehart is in the manufacturing process for the 2009 -2010 True Dual System for FL models. But it gets better - recent Dyno testing of our new 2009 and 2010 prototypes revealed that our new design performance not only blows the competition out of the water, we even exceeded the performance of our own 2007-2008 systems by over 3 added ft. lbs. of torque and 4 more horsepower.
Want some more good news? While Rinehart products have previously been offered with a 90 day warranty against defects in material and workmanship, new Rinehart products purchased through Rinehart will have an 18 month warranty. We are comfortable with this because we are confident in our product and we believe in standing behind anything that bears our name.
Rest assured, Rinehart Racing is alive and well; in fact, we're better than ever. Rinehart Racing is an independently owned family business and will continue to be. We are and will continue to offer the Rinehart product line and more importantly, we now have greater flexibility to add new innovative products to our line as we listen to you and respond to the industry needs.
Our website is geared towards you, our customer, in an effort to inform you about the product line along with product installation information, e-commerce, troubleshooting, blogs, customer galleries and information about our company.
It's been a fast road over the past 2 decades and our company has reached new heights of success because of our response to industry needs, our exploration and application of new technologies, and our unwavering commitment to quality and craftsmanship. But most importantly, our success is due to you. My commitment to you is to make exhaust in such a fashion that people are proud to put my name on their bike. Again, thank you for your support and your loyalty to our company. If you wear the name Rinehart on your bike, you're an integral part of the Rinehart family.
