    RG3/Freewheeler Tour-Pack Mount

    I saw one on a bike, posted on it. The big question remains is the load capacity. They post a lot of disclaimers with no load capacity. I understand that there is a metal plate under the body for support, but how much can it support along with the stock mounting system. Maybe a chopped tour pack...

    114 Ventilator

    Have you changed anything else like the mufflers or headpipe? If so you need a tuner. If not you might have a vacuum leak which would cause high idle and or more popping. Check the gasket behind the backplate.

    Something new

    I was at the dealer and saw this. I thought it was pretty clever. Didn’t get any info.

    Front Tire Expected Life?

    I was about 7k or so on the oem, Switched to an Avon trike tire would have gotten 16k out of it but was going on a trip. It had 14k when I switched. Also look into a rear tire reversed, there are threads around on that topic. It does work.

    Told Mrs Notgrownup I might consider a GW w/CSC

    Some years ago, I thought I read somewhere that Harley was working an IRS setup for the trikes. I asked the dealer about it, he has heard of it as well. Don’t know if it is a patent issue or is cost prohibitive. I’ve talked with a couple of people with IRS conversions with no issues, one was...

    Bummed

    So a week and a half ago I had American elite, rear, reverse mounted on the front. I have about 375 miles on the tire it’s been a headache. First day on the freeway home I was all over the lane. 40# air pressure. Seems to be very touchy with the lane crown. In the coming days I adjusted the air...

    Thoughts

    After changing mufflers this weekend I started to think about the clearance issue with the intermediate pipe. A thought popped into my head about changing the angle of the pipe coming out of the header. If you took a saw or grinding wheel cut from the bottom the the exit pipe up to almost the...

    What did you do to Your Tri-Glide Today?

    Finished up my DK Customs install the other day, took the bike out for a thorough thrashing, lol. Ran some PV logs, definitely going to have to adjust the ve tables, although that was the only change. Ran the PV cable under the tank, added a couple of washers to the rear spacers for a bit more...

    Power Vision Question

    I got my new license for my PV hooked it up, dropped in a stock improved tune, runs better, seems to have the same mileage, got a little over 250 miles on since. With the stock bars I couldn’t get it to mount the way I wanted, so I went with an Arkon mount, mc25mm17 system. Comes with a 17mm...

    21’s

    Saw a pic on another forum of a new touring bike with a clutch cable. Wow. 90 deg bend in the cable, wonder how long that will last.

    New info

    Read on another forum that D&D made a 2:1 exhaust for trikes. Went to the site, sure enough, they do. Looks like the same system as the 2 wheeler, with a $200 trike extension pipe. You can also order a ghost pipe, total pricing without shipping is right around $2000. Wonder how loud it is lol.

    AV 91 observations

    Ok so on my original observations in another post, I had no vibrations up to 92 mph. Well a few days later I went out for another ride, checked the tire pressure, it was at 37. You would figure the tech who changed the tire would read the special instruction on the work order to set the pressure...

    Tire time

    Well that didn’t take long, lol. At about 7k on the clock, have about a 3/32 of tread left, so it is getting close. Most likely going to get the Avon AV91 trike tire. Where is the best pricing found and what is everybody using for balancing. Thanks
