Thrashin 6.5” pullbacks, with pull back plate, I made spacers so the pull back plate sits outside the clam shell cover. Aggressive mid bend bars. Not for the 2024 modified to work. No it doesn’t block the screen at all.

I’m pretty sure it’s your EPA PCV hose from the tranny going back into your intake building that sledge. I built a makeshift catch can to prevent that regurgitated crap coming back into the engine and coating the top of the pistons and heads. Every time I clean it it looks very similar to what you’re showing milky watery oily. Hope this helps. Keep shooting your videos I’m having fun watching them! Cheers

Drove it 1/4 mile got an indicator light I never seen before turned around to go back and ask. Bike died in the parking lot back at the dealer. No electrical power at all.

I assumed you researched all options that came to you. I looks like it’s the best bang for the buck. Since the video, have you noticed any issues or little quirks with the swing arm? I can’t remember did you put the GSX’r rear wheel on the back as well? Nice work either way, brother!
@T-MachinistАй бұрын
I had this same swing arm on my 2019 Roadglide. That bike had way more power than this one. Never had any issues. The only thing is if you have legend revo arcs . On the high lifter swing arm you can’t run it in the stock height position. The bottom of spring perch contacts the high lifter mount. If you have stock or ohlins there isn’t any problem. If you have legend revo A shocks you can flip them upside down. Or A1 has a swing arm without the high lifter option , there won’t be any problems with shocks if you don’t desire an increased ride height.

How do you like those thrashing bars and risers? Does it feel more comfortable than the stock bars. Been wondering how it changes the ride. Have the same bike , but in whiskey fire
@T-MachinistАй бұрын
I really like them. The stock bars are nice this year, but I like the looks of the Thrashin set up and I have the pull back plate along with the 6.5 “ pull back risers. It’s not the typical Thrashin set up they are selling for the 2024. I had to make 1.5” spacer for under the pull back plate for it to work. The pull back plate then sits outside the clam shell. I think Thrashin just uses the 9” in the stock location. Yes I believe it’s more comfortable. I like the bars close so I have more of an upright riding position.

For your wheels set up, is it stock wheel spacer and do you still have the ABS?
@T-MachinistАй бұрын
Yes I still have abs. You would have to make new front spacers,run a radial caliper set up with the conversion mounts, space the mounts to line up the front rotors. On the back you have to modify the cushion drive , modify the stock rear brake bracket milling some material off so everything lines up centered and in line with the front wheel, and make a new spacer for the drive side.

It’s up to you. I will be upgrading asap whenever bigger throttle bodies, ported intake manifolds, and tuning become available. The cam does make a big difference though.
