Got my Thunder Torque Inserts today. Recorded just baffles, then no baffles. Then Inserts. then baffles with inserts. They dont sound the same on the video as they do in person. Think I'm going with baffles, I removed the packing before, and inserts. 4" open pipes are to loud for me. And the inserts don't make much difference. The inserts do give it a lower tone, and a different sound. Been raining and I live on a mile and a half of gravel. So there's no road test. And the forecast is 4 to 8 inches of snow Sunday..... No test ride for quite some time.... If its to quiet I can play with the baffles, but I pull a trailer, so its going to be bouncing back at us some too...
Took the trike on another demo seat ride, this time to Marshall, TX with stop off in Atlanta, TX. Total of 228 miles ridden on what felt like an early fall day.

It's a Mustang Touring Seat.What seat are you testing/demo-ing. The suspense is killing me!
Made a 160 mile ride yesterday in what turned into high wind conditions. The winds were 20+mph gusting to 30+ with cyclonic movements at times. Headwinds, crosswinds, and tailwinds, and all occurring within seconds. Definitely not ideal riding conditions and gave me good physical and mental workout. The evening windy weather advisory came too late for me.

Sat in the garage talking to my trike. Telling her why we can't go out and play, because of the 13.8 inch of snow.

You might be able to go to 2.5", all depends on your Trike. HD is not really tight on their tolerances and it varies trike to trike. Instructions on how to check are at this LINK.

Another Demo Seat
After 8 days and 500+ miles, I returned the Demo Mustang Touring Seat w/Backrest (P/N 79556) this morning. Signed out a Demo Road Zeppelin Air Adjustable Seat. Only had time to take a short 65 mile ride. Forecast not riding friendly for next couple of days. So far, I've Demoed the Harley Tallboy and Hammock Heated Seat, and Mustangs Super Touring w/Backrest. Hopefully, I can get good seat time on the Road Zeppelin. Snapshots of the Zeppelin with my Mustang Mounted Backrest.

Returned the Demo Road Zeppelin Air Adjustable Seat today. Unfortunately, of the last two Harley Seats on my list, only the Sundowner Smooth Deep Bucket is available as a Demo Seat. Brought that one home and installed it, but no chance to ride. Looks like weather will be turning sour for several days.

Finished running the harness to the touchscreen for the tuner. Then installed the DIY external breather kit. Still waiting for spring.....
Rode it everyday this week so far, including a nice putt on Sunday.
But with cold rain today, gonna borrow Mary's truck.
But is sure was nice to ride the last 4 days in relatively warm weather!

Front Tire
Rode 75 miles to an independent shop and had a Michelin Commander rear put on the front, then rode another 220 miles in beautiful weather. It was 75 in Prescott, AZ and 80+ in Phoenix. I noticed it is a little harder to steer and that is probably due to a much larger contact patch than the stock tire. Can't wait to put a lift on.
My humble opinion.....Get the lift......
