Try a real slow fill, it will fill up all the way to the top.

I fill it to the top then give the tank a quick little nudge and the level goes down and I can get another quart in.

Default reserve light coming on

Have a 2015 Freewheeler. When the reserve light comes on, it only takes 4 gallons to fill it up to the top. After the fill-up, the gauge never goes to the 'F' mark, more like between 3/4 and 7/8.

Hey all, anyone have any experience with the Jackpot Header catalytic converter eliminator for a 2015 Tri Glide? I've been told by a few with '14 ultras that it works great.

No sir, I'm keeping mine all stock. After coming back from California last summer going through the mountains I thought about pipes/Air Filter and tuner, but since Illinois and all the surrounding area is FLAT I gave up on the additional $2000 price tag. I'm more then satisfied with the stock setup - I can reach illegal speeds fast enough as is. I don't have a heat issue either.

Default tri glide

Thanks for the input. I also have no power or heat issues, others have said how much better the power is but I get there fast enough the way it is. They like the loudness factor but I had my dealer put Vance and Hines slip ons at the purchase and they give a nice tone.
Ride on!

Had to move the box back an inch from it's rearmost position to keep the driver backrest from jamming into my 5' skinny wife's legs! Huge improvement says she!

Trikes are inherently rough on front tires and wheel bearings.
