Products: Motorized bicycle exhausts and expansion chambers.

We have followed the advice of expert tuners, including extrapolating formulas used by A. Bell and G. Jennings. Selecting quality materials is the first step in making our designs come to life. RMH Performance Tuning is an American company based in Georgia. Our fabricators are located in Delaware, Georgia and Indonesia. While the best approach to building an exhaust should take into consideration specific engine characteristics like, port timing, displacement, and compression ratio, the designs we've chosen provide good performance across the range of stock to highly modified motorized bicycle engines.

We are passionate about 2 strokes. Pairing a 2 stroke with the proper expansion chamber creates a sound akin to a finely tuned instrument. But let's be honest, who really cares about sound if it can't add something more valuable to the riding experience? Our expansion chambers add instant horsepower to stock and modified engines.
 
Good, bad, ugly, and some ehhh. Let's start with the good.

Good: Its pretty. When set up correctly, I'm sure it's great. Laser welds to join the cones together are decent.

The bad: There are pinholes where the flat Sheet metal is joined to make the cones. I have not vacuum tested it yet but it holds some pressure with my mouth and hand for now. There are areas that have not been deburred.

The ugly: The header. Pics explain this. The way it comes, the outside of the ex port roof on the engine, has all the lip from the smaller header size. The gap between the outside of the header to the inside of the pipe is 3/64. Plenty of space to leak. The "stopper" for the pipe to the manifold to the header is not centered at all. Warped flange, whak bolt holes, piles of weld along with valleys on the mating surface, generally disappointing.

The ehh: the tabs for the springs are not lined up. They are on their website though. Customer service. When I asked about these things the answer was run it. No real answers for specs.

8-10 week preorder was 7 months. Unfortunately, fixing their screw ups still seems more worth it than making my own for now.
 
Am I missing something here or is it true they do not have a "Contact Us" button anywhere on their website...No phone number or email address either???

Customer service.
Where did you find their customer service???

Those are instant NO's as far as I am concerned with any business online dealing with products for our bikes.

This is not too bright on their part either.

They have a "chat" area on the site.
Yea it's quite a bummer.
"Run it! Lol Install it right." I think I'm going to make my own header. I'll try to make this work first.

If ya really wanna shake them up a bit on their little "chat" area, just copy and paste this URL below and paste it into their chat area and tell them this is the "Dealer Review" of a world wide forum that you belong to and now he will have "proper" exposure for his products and his customer service...lol.

What I really wanted was to make the guy aware of what he was shipping out and to get tips on installation. The "it's fine, run it" attitude was pretty discouraging in regards to purchasing more of their products. Once I get things ironed out, I'm sure I'll be happy with the performance but right now I'm a bit disappointed.

And the very reason why I said copy and paste and post that URL I provided you on his chat site...That will allow him to know that there are many possibly potential customers who may or may not want to be customers depending on how he deals or doesn't deal with his present customers.
