I have a 2011 Triglide with 14000 miles. Since new it ran ok but not great, a lot of pinging and sluggish. Installed a PCV with a download from Fuel Moto. Ran better but not like my '06 Ultra. Installed a set of true duals by Vance and Hines and thanks to a fellow member a set of Rush mufflers with the 1.75 baffles and a new down load from Fuel Moto and a Arlen Ness big sucker breather kit. The Triglide runs Great, no longer sluggish, pulls good, runs smooth. This is the way it should have run from the factory. Realy pleased with the performance now, I was really disapointed I have had 2 GL 1800 Gold Wing Trikes and wanted a Harley Triglide because of the look and sound, Happy now Thanks to Fuel Moto for the down load and to a fellow forum member for the mufflers. Happy New Years to all. A great group of trikers to be freinds with.

Just wanting to know how much $$$$ did it take to get it running right? Got a friend who has a 2010. My wife's 04 wing runs circles around his and he's not happy. He want's too upgrade to get dog off the porch. Larry
 
Great to hear things are working out for you George.

Off subject= Sam! In your Avatar I see what looks like a Can Am trailer, if so how do you like it and how does it handle on the back of the TG?
When I was up in Whitehorse "Yukon Territory" Canada last September I stop in at the Honda Dealer, they had a new one displayed on the floor which gave me a chance to really look one over, I almost bought. The Honda Dealer there is also a Cam-Am dealer also.

Sometimes you just have to be persistent and willing to tweak it until it does what you want.

Like my sig line says "I've yet to ride a stock Harley which wasn't in need of a mechanical intervention."

Yes Butch that is a CanAm trailer. I was one of the people who tried the new Spyder RT, but after a couple of years of not being able to come to terms with the way it handled, I moved on. When behind the Spyder the trailer was great and behind the TG it is even better. It is one great trailer, no bounce, no sway it just sits back there and rolls along, I don't even know it's back there. I had to modify the hitch slightly to drop the hitch height to match the TG better, but that was no big deal. I also cut off the CanAm electric plug and put on a standard 5 pin flat plug to match my TG.

The double hatches on the trailer are great and it has more than enough room for all we need to carry for a month long road trip.

If you have more questions just PM me and I'll try to answer them.

good job sam. now go out and RIDE

Thanks Gorilla, and ride we will. We made it to southern Texas last April and then to Montana and back in June. We have more of the same planned for this year plus a little more if the summer isn't so dang hot.

Sorry George, we sidetracked your thread.
