Shame you missed it. We did it on our trip around Lk Superior and again going to Alaska.
Installed the Comfort Lift Kit from DK Kustoms.
After much research I decided to install this after doing the other suggested processes of air in the tires and shocks. Now this did improve the ride but I thought I could do better, even though the wife was satisfied as is. Being a straight axel, it's never gonna be perfect.
Here to say this product did indeed improve the ride. And, it was an easy install.
I would recommend this upgrade to all Triglide owners.
Your never going to get the ride of a car, but dang, it is much more noticeable.
Thanks DK, good stuff!!!

Installed DK Custom Thunder Torque Inserts in my Vance and Hines mufflers.
It took a bit to get the baffles out but once that was done it was easy.
Started raining right after I finished so still need to take a ride check it out.
They worked great on the last set of mufflers but had to change to smaller TTIs for the V&H mufflers.

With some welding help I fabricated a mid-step for the left side and got it installed. I also put footrests on the crash bar (which I'm in the process of locating the sweet spot). I cleaned up under the seat hoping to get a little better security module reception.

I don't see how a mid step helps. I use the passenger floorboard so I can get my leg up and over the seat and backrest. Even with my bride on board, she just slips her foot back enough so I can use it.

I am having a new motor put in my '17 Trike. It is a Screaming Eagle 131 engine. It took about 6 weeks from the time it was ordered at a Harley dealer to arrive at the dealership. To purchase a water-cooled engine, Harley requires you to buy a fan cooled oil cooler that you do not use and to purchase a head pipe with a cat. Any way the engine was being installed in my trike as the mechanic was going to install the water lines to the heads, he discovered that the front head is water cooled and the rear head is oil cooled from the factory. He is waiting now on Harley to make a decision on who is going to repair it. It was supposed to be done this week and I was going to pick it up on Monday. It is being done at a shop in Arizona, Can't buy the engine in California.

Dang Ray, I'd say someone dropped the ball, hope you get it sorted soon.

I personally purchased the “Trike Mid Step” from the company who makes these and will say that it is a GREAT addition to the trike and adds more versatility than one can imagine.
It also looks great (although some may not like it… it’s all personal preference) but again, it’s an incredible addition.
Kudos to @Krazeehorse for making his own & looks great!!!

Combination of yesterday and today:
I installed an auxiliary switch kit to the RH side, (which one is for my garage door opener)… and then I installed a rear back up camera system. I will make individual posts later on these, but will also put both links below:

Love Jugs Site issue info
I got an e-mail from Love Jugs . anyone ordering on the site has to use Credit Card PayPal (second option) . The third option is a non working option that they are trying to get off their site . So now I wait , at least a broken fan not stopping me from riding!!!!
