Agreed - ridiculous if they don't.

Reality - they make more money on aftermarket sales of them vs. including them on the sled!

I'm betting it's more of a tooling/labor issue with the dual layer tunnel they have now. Not real fast and easy to put on the assembly line. More likely with a new chassis.

I'm not buying a new cat until they put factory replaceable boards on them.

Do guys trash boards on the regular?

My boards were clapped out after 1,500 miles. Alder ripped one and the other was sagged out in the center... I would much rather drill a few rivits and slap on a new board as needed then have to drag out a die grinder and hack up a 14k dollar sled...

Though these inserts look good, I wonder if they will eventually bend as well because of the flat design, or will the rivots just start popping out of the front and back of the boards like the stock ones. 800 miles on my ‘17 MC and I’m thinkin by next year I’ll need aftermarket boards again
