Default white brothers no more

I don't know if anyone has used a WB exhaust on their ds's, renegades, or outlanders, but I just thought I should share this.


I hope they will still make good exhausts. The old ones looked nice.

Edit: You might have to ignore my second statement from before because it appears that the atv exhaust pipes aren't made anymore. Only choppers and crotchrockets now.

This is what I heard back in February.

Aftermarket exhaust specialists Vance & Hines has acquired White Brothers, according to Vance & Hines president Terry Vance, with the company set to produce a line of off-road exhaust systems that will be introduced at the Indianapolis dealer show in February.

Word hit the street yesterday that White Brothers had ceased its operations in Yorba Linda, California, a fact that Vance confirmed in a phone conversation today. Vance & Hines and White Brothers are both owned by the Motorsports Aftermarket Group (MAG) so the acquisition makes perfect sense.

"We've taken White Brothers and broken it down and Vance & Hines has acquired the assets on the exhaust side," Vance said. "We will produce a line of off-road systems that will be branded Vance & Hines and introduced at the Indy show."

The acquisition includes White Brothers' management and engineering teams, including Tom Morgan, Vance said.

"They will come to Vance & Hines and we have a building in place and ready for them," Vance said.

The deal also makes sense in that the Vance & Hines name is widely recognized and distributed worldwide.

"It's the best of both worlds for us," Vance said. "We will have the technical side and the distributing - it will be done right."

Existing White Brothers customers will also be taken care of, according to Vance, with Vance & Hines handling any White Brothers customer service issues at 800/592-2529.
