[QUOTE=TonkaDriver;673926]A couple of nice improvements. One which will improve the stage one process. Fuelmoto E series slip-ons will finish it.

If you like it quiet .. .you will love the E-series ... I do.
Mail went little while ago. My air deflectors for the tank came... Got them installed... Now I have to fix lunch and go for a ride to see how they work... Its sunny and about 80... The things a guy has to do..... I think I like being retired. Got the camper on the truck yesterday, headed for Yellowstone Monday.
Get back and ride local for a few weeks, then Ride out to Sturgis for the 27th time... First time on the Triglide...
Changed out the seat {Finally} I went with the older Saddleman Sofa ~ It alllows me to use my HD Backrest ~ It fits with the hand rails {a must for my wife} and it's a butt load nicer than the HD options and I got it for $326....new. Gotta like that too!

Just installed the extended rear break pedal. Now I need to run to Ace and pick up some hardware for Fran's RZR. Im certain I'll take the Long way home.
• Rerouted EBS hose to repositioned Catch Can to center underneath. Gaining a bit more clearance for it.
• Rode 143 round trip miles into NW Louisiana.
Took a ride to Green River, UT ... Ray's to get a burger. It's 115 miles from my house ... so 230 miles total.
The main purpose was to get a juicy burger and test fuel mileage at 70-75 mph since I did some more tuning after my Mesquite trip. On the Mesquite trip, I averaged 34.9 mpg over 1700 miles.
Interesting Numbers:
MPG 36.8 (Average of two fills, 37.0 and 36.6)
Max ET as read by the Power Vision 218*
Max Coolant temp 182*
Ambient Temp started at 76*, got to 86* in the desert, was 78* when I got home
Wind at 12 mph WNW (weather channel app)
Oil Temp when I stopped to fill up near my house 238* as read by digital dip stick.
Direction of trip, basically East to West to East, so mostly cross wind
I think I am done tuning ... :D.
Did stop in Rabbit Valley (2 miles from the Utah boarder) to snap a pick to use as a screen saver on the phone ... :D

As a side note ... had no helmet on, could hear the audio book just fine as streamed from my phone :D.

It would be nice to be able to get to another state quick enough to have lunch and return home.:clapping:

Finished the 500 mile break-in. Today, local Harley folks are picking it up and going to install the stage 1. Sticking with Harley to keep the warrantee for now.
Packed it for trip to start on Sat.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]72703[/ATTACH]Installed a Trunk Guard Bumper. Momma say's, we need some chrome on the back side. Looks good.
Rode 592 miles Tuesday on the trip to SE Michigan. Made Effingham, IL my overnight stop. It was a very long day spent mainly on the seat of the trike....a lot of one lane construction delays on I57 North. Hope I70 East to I69 North will be better Wednesday for the last leg into Michigan.

Illinois has two seasons ... winter and construction. :AGGHH: Good Luck
We rode 300 miles of beautiful Arkansas highways to Eureka Springs (that's Arkansas, not California) to spend a couple days riding the area with some of my CVO buds. Yes I know my TG is not a CVO but they still let me hang with them.
After another 429 (often times ridem' cowboy) miles today, I arrived at my Michigan destination. I'm definitely moving upgrading shocks to the top of my "To Do List". Feel like I'm now qualified for the PBR Circuit. :laugh:
