    FuelPak FP3 autotune question.

    V&H says to Finish autotune after 2 sessions or the end of the day. I Applied my first run, but did not Finish. It will be a couple of days before I can ride again. Should I have Finished instead? I planned on about 3 runs before finishing.

    New Trailer Build / Help

    I used this method. Weighed trailer one wheel at a time and then the tongue. Then pulled trike on and slowly moved forward until the weight I wanted was reached. Set up like this the scale shows 1/4 of the actual weight.

    Summer riding gear advice

    Our trip this last weekend was good. Cloudy on the way to Branson and sunny on the way back. Used sun screen to keep from getting burned. Wife came out great. I came out with my arms looking like cooked lobster claws. What is a good jacket or long sleeve shirt that is cool to wear in the heat...

    Exhaust changes observations

    I keep a spreadsheet showing what I have done to the trike and the resulting MPGs and/or performance and have since it was new and stock. Mileage was around 33.5 average stock. I installed a slightly modified stock head pipe to get rid of some felt heat(won't admit to losing anything out of...

    New trailer

    Decided to play with building a dual purpose trailer for the trike or a couple of 4 wheelers. About half the materials was given to me with plans for a 5 x 10 or 5 x 12 trailer. Tossed those and made a 6 x 12 with dual gates and a drop tail. Helps to have a son who welds for a living. All I need...

    External breather system

    Mine just vents under the trike also and I have not had any oil drips yet. But I do like the looks of the catch can DK sells. You can see it plainly, but it fits right in with the motor as far as I can tell from the pictures.

    Anyone monitoring MPG on their FP3?

    I'm just playing around with the FP3. Looked at average MPG and it showed 37.9. Calculated was 34.6. I looked at the settings and it was set to 1989 counts, pulses, or whatever it is. I tried dividing the 1989 by 37.9 and then multiplying it by 34.6. That gave 1816, so that is what I programmed...

    New FP3 in the mail today

    Just received an FP3 in the mail and also got an email from V&H support as to what map to download. One thing that somewhat concerned me is a disclaimer in the email that my catless headpipe may cause issues with the map and that I should not run autotune. Anyone running close to what I have and...

    Did it to her again.

    The weather here has been horrible for riding for a month now. Extremely hot and no rain. Yesterday was only supposed to be in the low 90s and the usual 15% chance of rain that fizzles out every day. I suggested taking a ride to Hot Springs, AR to eat at a grill we like, about a 250 mile round...

    Harley paint protection install tool

    Wife bought the trike paint protection film to put on our ride. The one tool it calls for is a 3M 71607 squeegee or equivalent. Anyone know an equivalent? I hate to spend $20+ for a squeegee that will be used one time.

    Exhaust port gasket

    I'm replacing the header on my 2015 triglide with a decatted one. It has 4k miles. Do I need to replace the exhaust gaskets too? I've heard it both ways.

    Almost got myself in trouble today.

    My back seat rider asked where we were going on our weekly Saturday "date". I wouldn't tell her, but told her to put on her blue jeans and riding boots. She asked about the rain forecast, but I assured her it was just a 15 percent chance and was all far away from us. We only rode about 45...

    Head pipe question

    Is the factory header the same part number on 2010 and up Triglide? Mine is a 2015. Looking to buy another header for reasons of my own.
