Recently, on my 2014 Tri-Glide, I installed new crash bar highway pegs and mounted them so I would now have three (3) resting positions for my feet: (1). feet fully on floorboards, (2). feet fully on highway pegs, and the newly added (3). heel portion of feet on floorboards w/front feet portion on highway pegs. However, when taking my Trike out for the "test-ride", I noticed a lot of hot "burning" air coming down directly onto the top of my feet, when using the highway pegs for either partial or full feet placement, to the point where I was searching the highway pegs for the coolest spot to rest my feet. While riding, I determined the burning hot air was probably coming out of the fairing lower's side vents and being directed somehow down on top of my feet. Unfortunately, the highway pegs new "feet placement" mounting location is directly below the lower's side vents. I am now wondering if the upper fairing's side mounted adjustable air wings, currently in the "closed" position, is directing the hot air's flow downward onto the top of my feet?
In turn, have any of you "Twin-Cooled" engine owners ever experienced the same "burning hot air", from the lower's side vents, coming down directly onto your feet? Today, I am going to take the Trike out for another "test-ride" and will position the upper fairing's adjustable air wings in the "open" position and see if it helps redirect the hot air's flow.
Thank you,
