Stared at it off and on during this rainy day. Picked up two days ago and can’t believe I’m back to riding after my 2 wheeler was hit in the rear by a car.

Ordered the oil filter relo and oil cooler combo kit from DK Customs and a manual bypass valve from Dennis Kirk. It should all be in early next week and installed while I'm off for the Holidays. I have already installed the reusable oil filter. I don't think I have anything left to buy from Kevin. LOL.

Oil filter relo installed. I’ll install the cooler when it gets warmer.

If you are referring to the relo kit; DK Customs is a good place to do business. They also offer the oil filter relo and oil cooler combo.

Thanks to member Koolbreeze who recommended the flashing tail/brake light bulbs from Amazon! Got those installed today, and they are much brighter than stock and when you apply the brakes they flash three times, then stay on steady.
Also installed the H-D “trunk guard”, aka bumper, to my TG, today. Might save me money from careless backing in reverse. I also like the “look” of the bumper.

Agreed
Upon the recommendation of a HD Tech who rides hard I went from Yn 3 to 80/140 and am happy. Seems to shift easier and quieter. Also changed from stock linkage to one with grim joints and finding neutral is much easier and it shifts WAY better. Just my results

Do any bird hunting with that Shorthair’? I hunted a lot over my Old Man’s shorthair (Pheasant, Quail, Partridge)…

I never did, but my son/inlaw did. Short hairs are very good dog, Plato thought he was a human being. Boy could he smell things. :Santa:

New amp and stuff
Finished up doing new speakers and amp today. Took alot longer then I had planned for. But thats why I waited for the weather to cool off. Everything was pretty straight forward EXCEPT the speaker pods. Don't watch any of the YT videos' out there and think it's gonna be easy. The Trike is different. With our rake the last three bolts on either pod are pretty hard to get to. Make sure you have a long (like 24") extension and swivel sockets. Not just a universal. Maybe a ball joint allen wrench would work. It took longer to get those bolts out then the rest of the install. I found the best way to get to them is to remove the passing lights and fasteners that hold the fairing in place. Lift up about an inch or 2 and tilt the fairing forward. The fork down tubes block four of the bolts. Otherwise...easy day...or two....maybe three if your retired and don't care how long it takes. More if you don't use the Cicada HDTLINK harness.
