    RUSH 7017TR Headers

    Just wondering if anyone was running the subject pipes and if so how they like them. Long story short, I traded the Frankenstein Softail conversion for a 2013 TriGlide a couple weeks ago and am looking to cool it down a little and gain a little performance overall. I had a Rush exhaust system...

    Heritage/Frankenstein Trike

    Well the kit is installed and I pick it up this afternoon. Saw it yesterday before the rake kit was installed and am really not happy with how much of the drive belt that's exposed as the belt guard can no longer be used.:Shrug: Now need to get an estimate to paint the fenders Tequila Sunrise/...

    Brake Light Problem

    Had an oil cooler installed on my '08 Ultra/Champion Saturday at my dealer. Did my pre-ride check today and discovered my brake lights aren't working. Running lights OK. Checked brake fuse and it's good. I pulled the cover off the left light and disconnected the lamp pigtail. On the male plug...

    Anyone been to Cherokee NC??

    We're planning a trip on the Blue Ridge 13-15 May. Never been to Cherokee but would like to overnight there. Stayed in Pigeon Forge when I rode the Dragon but that town was just too busy and congested for my liking. Can anyone tell me how Cherokee compares to Pigeon Forge and possibly...

    Wasp Sting

    Betty and I were finishing up a great ride yesterday when I felt a terrible burning sensation just below my left eyebrow. Finally found a safe place to pull over and got my glasses off. A wasp somehow got under my glasses and was still stingin' when I pulled him off my eye!! My eye was...

    Champion tail lights

    I was washing my trike yesterday and found that the bulbs in my tail lights are melting the red lens covers on both tail lights. I have a spot on both lights about the size of a nickel that are almost burned through. :mad: I removed the tail light and found that the bulb is almost touching the...

    VTX 1300R w motor trike noise?

    It sounds as if your noise is being caused by vibration based on the fact that it goes away when pressure is applied to the handlebars. I have a similar noise on my Champion/Ultra Classic at idle when the engine is hot, caused by the lower fairing vents rattling, unless I keep either the front...
