If you look down the center of the muffler you will see a thin sheetmetal plug. Punch or drill that plug out. It will sound more like a Harley.

Picked up my LR last Thurs after 10K service with Syn3 and new stock spark plugs. Also changed trans to Syn3. (Actually at 14800 miles, delayed 10K service by 1 oil change)
Went for a NICE ride along central WI country roads last week-end, 250 miles, riding 2up with windshield,got a tick under 50MPG (49.8)!!


Works for me!


Previous mods: K&N Intake System, V&H Fuel Pak3 (generic 2 into 1 map then auto tune) , Screamin Eddie Exhaust Mod (center plug punched, rear plate drilled 8X and packing removed).

I am running Syn for both engine and trans. Bike runs great. I will be right at 2000 miles by the time I get home tonight.

So have you done anything to your bars/risers? or still stock?

I have done nothing to my bars other than move them back towards me a bit. I love the stock bars. They fit me well. I put my money into 1/4 fairing, fork brace, DK Customs 587 AC, V&H Big Shots, and Dynojet PV2.

Added a few new things to my Low Rider. 13.6 Sway-Away shocks, 10 inch Bung King risers with Biltwell Tracker bars. Swapped the Quarter Fairing for a JD Customs T Sport with a 14 inch shield. Slowly getting it where I want it.

HD 1/4 Fairing


There is something that has to be down with the stock headlight but I cannot remember what because the dealer did it for me.
