Did I miss anything?

[WindyOne]

I changed the seat to Road Zepplin, added a comfort lift kit, added a sheepskin cover, changed out the handlebars for 2+2 narrow sweepers, I changed the AC to an outlaw 587, changed header pipe to catless, added a PV-1 and am doing the auto tune. I am keeping stock mufflers until I find something that hits the right tone for cruising.

The only thing I had left on my list was to exchange the wheels for a set of chrome ones from Wiley Shiny.
I have decided not to do cams or any engine work. I don't listen to the radio but will buy a set of SMH 10 headsets for the Bluetooth ability.

Did I miss anything left to do? It is a pretty good ride right now.

Sounds like you pretty much covered everything!

For a guy that was happy in the beginning with how the trike was and thought he wouldn't have to do anything I think I am. Funny how one change keeps leading to more.

That it is! My Freewheeler looks significantly different than a stock one!

One basic item-

I think you will be pleasantly surprised by how much more comfortable it is if you added some Floorboard Extensions.


Great Start! :laugh:

There is so much that we can do with them...seems like there is always more. On my first TG I took my time, riding it a lot and letting it tell me what was needed here and there. On my '14 I basically duplicated what I had learned I liked over the years on the '11.

Kevin I forgot to include the floorboard extensions in my done list. That was the very first thing I did to the trike.

I also yesterday removed the left side air scoop after reading that you thought it improved the air flow to the rear cylinder. I had a communications problem with the PV and getting it to recognize the trike. That got done today and I have not had a chance to ride today to start the auto tune process.
I do notice a different sound from the stock mufflers with the lack of a cat. Still not quite what I am looking for so I will keep checking them out.

What I am looking for is a muffler with a deeper tone than the stock set. I almost convinced myself that the V&H Deluxe set made for the trike was it. Then I got buyer remorse before I bought them. Now I want to hear in person a set before I lay down good money. I can't afford to do it more than one time so I need to be sure what I buy is what I like.
Sound bytes in the net are ok but there are so many variables in my speaker level and the actual recorded level I can't be sure.

If you put on a good set of head phones & set things where they sound right with most sounds that are in the sound bite showing the muffs. the sound is really close to being correct. I really like the sound from the V&H Monster Rounds, but the baffle is too large for the stock 103" engine. I lost some TQ on the bottom end & some millage. But I have been getting around 32-34MPG. Mixed roads.
