replacing header pipes

[dcvernon]

my 2014 trike is presently in the shop having the header pipes replaced with Vance and Hines headers to remove the cats and installing stage 1 a/c with harley stage 1 down load tune. staying with Stock slip ons for now does anybody know what kind of results I should expect? I would like to do everything at once but being retired must do in stages.

It'll be louder and cooler around the feet, anything else will be hard to tell.

That's about what I did with my 11, Except I went with Rush true duels, That stopped the heat on my right foot, Also picked up a few more mpg I get 35/40 mpg's... The stage one raised the red line from 55 to 64 hundred rpm's 'I did have to after a few miles later put on slip-ons [rush 175;s]

Unless Harley changed the mufflers on your 14, The Left muffler is Heavily baffled compared to the right side. Kind of defeats the true duels... [Run a stick in the left side and it will only go in a few inches ware as on the right it'll go in about a foot] I did find out the 175 were too loud for me, So I added DK's Thunder Torques to quiet it down a little.

Thanks for the information I should pick it up tomorrow. I like the stock slip ons but needs a little more rumble. I going to aspen cade rally hope to find a few to listen to.

Well I picked the trike up. It does sound alot louder with the stock slip ons. Sounds good still looking for the sound I want. Seems to have more getty up. I had this done a barnetts in elpaso. They did a great job. I also had them do my 10k service. I will be on the sand pebble and canyon brown trike with nm plates if you see me stop me lets chat.

I will be there rain or shine.

I thought the 2014 Tri-Glide already had a high flow air filter. Why would you need a Stage 1 download? Thought they went together. :xzqxz:

The stock a/c (I would call it low flow) is about half the size of the S&S a/c I replaced it with...

Many drill out the stock muffler baffle with a 3" hole saw, pull out the packing material and have a great sound for next to nothing.

I just had that done to my 2014. Air Filter, tuner, V&H headers and mufflers.
I chose the V&H mufflers made for the trike. Oval at the tip and made for
more ground clearance. Sounds great although I wear ear plugs ALL THE TIME
when riding. (I have the Comfort lift kit installed so have lots of ground clearance).

Went for a 130 mile ride up to the 9000 ft level on Hwy 119/Hwy 72, Hwy 7,
Hwy 34, back by way of Carter Lake here in the front range area of Colorado.
MPG was 40.
