Do you have a DK Customs tank lift or not?

 

[Bryan]

no tank lift

 

[Jack Klarich]

These?

Here is a link to the correct instructions for "No Tank Lift"

If you still cant figure it out, I would call them Monday. I just ordered a pair myself. I installed the 1.5" deluxe tank lift & it did wonders for my cooling + it shows off the engine & makes it easier to get to clean that chrome.

I plan on angling mine up as much as possible to direct max air flow to the engine, keeping in mind the clearance requirements.

It is trial and error

Was thinking of a box fan 6’ in front of the tri along with a evap smoke machine in front of the fan :Shrug:

well i put them on during the week.and went for a ride today i was hoping it would stop some of the helmet buffering.

It didn't.

This is on a trip, but, the angle should be so air is moved to the engine.

They did not work for me.

I recently installed a pair & got a test ride in today. I didn't get to test for improved cooling, but it definitely helped with buffeting, though I did not have a big problem with that as my 20" HD windshield does an impressive job of redirecting airflow.

I got a 90 mile ride in today, 30 of it at 70mph & buffeting was definitely improved.

I open my shield at that speed & my helmet was not moving at all.

As for motor temps, it's definitely improved my cooling, as it was 88° & higher humidity today & I pulled off the highway & idled for about 90 seconds & EITMS would always immediately kick on in the past & today I was sitting 20-30 seconds before it came on & that happen several times today.

I have them adjusted at about a 45° angle in relation to the ground.
