Ventilator Air cleaner

Black and chrome defiance trim for the air cleaner

Crash bar

Lowers off my RGS

Daymaker headlight

Kuryakyn 1" forward 1"out extenders on my Defiance foot boards. now my parking brake is accessible

Done for the night. Tomorrow I'll load the map for the Stage 1 and put my highway pegs on the crash bar.

Still waiting on my windshield and my rear bumper.

We will need some pictures to verify all this quality work.

WE like pictures almost as much as what kind of oil do you use

Seriously post them when you can:clapping:

I am trying to use the uploader. I'm choosing the file click done and then nothing in the box where the file name should be. Is this site on tapatalk?

Hope you get this picture thing figured out. There is a sticky on How to Post pictures which is a video by Papa Zook on this forum. Really want to see your upgrades.

Looking good. Really like the Defiance driver and passenger boards.

I am planning on a nice late morning/early afternoon ride to nowhere in particular.

You all enjoy the holiday.

Update...I did 45 miles and my baby is running great, but it's too damm hot.

I also talked to my middle son in southern California & he said riding his Dyna is not that much fun when the road is shaking during an earthquake. :AGGHH:

I installed a Custom Dynamics luggage rack LED light bar. Should have been a simple install but after installing (followed directions to the letter) and plugging the connectors together the light didn't work. I noticed that the wiring pigtail that plugs into the rear lights harness on the Freewheeler had a red / black / blue wire going into the connector and the wire pigtail from the light had a red / black /yellow wire. The wires from the light bar are loose and not snapped into the JAE half connector so you can feed the wires through the luggage rack rail and into the trunk. So, after running the wires into the trunk and through the plastic plug in the trunk and into the space under the seat I snapped the wires into the connector plug half, connected it to the wiring harness connector half and turned on the ignition....no light, running or braking. Called tech support and they said "you must have the wires hooked up wrong". I asked, why is there a red / black / blue on one side of the connector and red / black / yellow on the other side when the instructions says to match up the wire colors? I don't know he said. I will pull one from stock and check and call you back. While waiting I check wire to wire hook-up with my test light and then hooked wires direct to battery....everything worked correctly. Tech support called back and said their wire colors were the same as what I had and that I had connected them up correctly. I messed with the connector, unplugged the individual wires several times and re-seated them but could not get the light to work with the supplied JAE connectors. Cut the JAE connectors off and used individual wire to wire connectors...light works perfectly.

Sorry for the long post but pretty aggravating. Should have been a 30 - 45 minute project instead of 2 hours. Never had this problem before with Custom Dynamics products but in the end it worked out.

I was looking at the instructions for that last night & the instructions under the Freewheeler looked like they were for a TriGlide. I was then looking at getting their night rider light and making my own bracket & mounting it under the luggage rack.

That's what I thought when reading the instructions that came with the light bar too. When I ordered it I ordered the one that was specified for the luggage rack part number for the Freewheeler. I went through my file and checked the part number on the packing list I had for the luggage rack. It fit perfectly and the wiring harness plugs matched the freewheeler harness. The only problem I had was the JAE connector not working. Once I replace it with individual bullet wire connectors everything worked fine.

Had the stage 1 completed with the SEPRT. I was doing it myself and apparently the download for the software was corrupted. took it to HD to make sure the data cable and tuner were ok. They just did the flash for me. Free. Gonna finish getting the first 500 miles on it today. Dump the piss they call tranny gear oil out. Switch it with Bel-Ray.

New wires /plugs

Installed DK Customs 409 PRO RACE Black Spark Plug Wires - Touring/Trike Models and stock hd 6R12 plugs on 15 Freewheeler. Short ride, very noticeable improvement in throttle response and power. DK wires are almost three times thickness of stock hd wires.

Tip of the hat to Jack and Michael for the tips and advise, made the job a lot easier. Maybe next time I'll try it without a full 6 gallon fuel tank and being to bull headed to take the time to drain it.

That's what I did. I used 3/4" aluminum angle from TSC. Cut, shape, drill and polish. It looks great and was an easy job.

RKplus, exactly which light did you use? Vendor, model & length? Thanks. Also, who is TSC?

Glad you got it done. Next time, if you want to be really amazed, try Redline Shockproof in the tranny. It gives fantastic transmission performance/operation.

I don't know if the 114 M8 is the same as my 2017 107, but in the 1st 1,000 miles, mine burned a quart of engine oil. Mine has not burned any since then. It's just something to watch the 1st few miles.

I used Custom Dynamics Knight Riderz, part# 2040-0646 LB01. It is dual intensity, non sequential and comes in two lengths. I used the 4 1/2" size. TSC is Tractor Supply Co. The cable was long enough. I used vacuum hose for conduit in the trunk and posi-taps for my connections.
