Most of the motorcycle enthusiasts visiting this forum are comfortable with stock trike performance. When riding two up, loaded with luggage and pulling a trailer or camper one might find performance a little sluggish. Don't expect performance in 6th gear it is more of a cruise gear. Shift if you need more pass power. Or..... you could do what I did.
I took my Tri glide to Stutmans HD in Jamestown ND for a performance upgrade. When I bought my 2017 Triglide here in Manitoba I had the dealer install stage one and set the download for that change. Then off to Stutmans Harley for stage two.
A woods 222 cam, Jackpot headpipes and power vision tuner. It was then dyno tuned. Stutman's has a trike dyno.
Power went up by 39% hp and 17% TQ. over stock. The chart showed 96.85 hp and 100.31 TQ. Remember that according to my calculations the trike dynos suck up power showing 16% less. The same build on a two wheeler shows 112.26hp and 115.91TQ.
Now it runs like it should. I am happy.
