What did you do to Your Tri-Glide Today?

[Gorilla]

Short shake down ride , exhaust not sealing at rear head it sounds like. Gonna let her cool down loosen and the reseat everything and see what happens hope it doesn't need to come apart again. Wards fans cycled on and took about 15 minutes to turn off after shutdown. Set up gauge screen on Tuner.

If you used new gaskets then more than likely you just didn't get the nuts down equally. I usually go 3 or 4 turns per nut back and forth to seat them evenly.

Loosened every thing , reset and retorqued. Still heard leak. Out of town for weekend. Gonna have to come apart and check gaskets and try again on Monday.

we have decided to put our stage 4 motor in our trike and put a 120r in my fat bob and leveing the 500 alone at the moment.

Removed the new exhaust , removed supplied flat gaskets and installed stock tapered gaskets. Reinstall exhaust , no leaks , glad thats done. Remote oil filter base leaking at outlet fitting , cranked in two whole turns using a weatherhead socket. Definitely a specialty tool that most people don't have but should.

Those crush gaskets seem to be the only way to go. :clapping:

Rode to work this morning. Happy with the power after all the mods. Little loud not too bad. Rode it mildly not cracking it wide open and running revs up. Try to shift at 2500.
Still small leak at remote filter gotta chase that down.

Had to go check

Rode my 16 TG out on gravel roads leading to where I go dirt bike riding just to confirm I no longer care if its blacktop or gravel. I was right, I don't care. This opens up a lot more roads in the area to go sightseeing on. Going to trade in my 15 Ultra Limited Low now on another trike because my wife started riding this one. Yesterday she rode the trike and I the bike and had 50 or 60 miles of rain on the mountain roads out of the 170 mile trek. Turned out okay but think I would have felt safer on a trike! Besides I have a 07' 1200 Sporty when I really want 2 wheels.

Had to make a stop at dealer for a new gas cap. Stopped for fuel after work and almost couldn't get cap off and took quite a while to get it back on.

2 trikes

What did I do to my tri-glide today?

Took it for a ride around town, trying to get back home before those big black clouds soaked me. Starting to think I don't like my RZ seat anymore. Might be time to ask for suggestions for something better.

Hope you got it under recall :Shrug:

No charge for cap.

 

[Gorilla]

Took it in to have the front head replaced the mount bolt broke off in the head. Happens

 

[RcSuD]

Finally got my Avon front tire installed. (just bought it 6 months ago). Took the looooonnnngggg way home. First impressions are pretty good. Smoother ride, lighter feeling, especially around corners. Just might be a keeper.

Bought a Power Vision

I bought a Power Vision Tuner from DK Custom (Kevin) for my 2016 Tri Glide. I haven't had this good of a feeling about a purchase in very long time!

 

[BillR]

Cleaned it, waxed it, rode it. Now the bugs are back on it. :Shrug:

 

[cdculbertson]

Farkle with a function, I hope. After having the Stage I with Rinehart True Dual Xtremes done a few months ago, I noticed some reduced heat on my legs. After the DK 1.5" tank lift deluxe and removal of the left heat shield, that helped even more, but I was still noticing some heat on my right leg from what seemed to be the stock air cleaner cover, so I replaced it with the Kuryakyn "Alley Cat" air cleaner cover, which looks a lot like the one from DK. Hopefully this will help even more.

Loaded it into the trailer and getting ready to take it my favorite pin stripper!:clapping:

 

[robrooter]

Well today i removed dash pad and installed a light into the dash for the boot in case it opens and polished the wheels and goes in next week for a stage4 kit which should be nice.
