Can you tell me how far does the Trask Air Cleaner stick out relative to the stock air cleaner? Does it get in your way when you try to push the back brake pedal?

Got the Glide stripped down for some maintenance.

- New Tires (Dunlop AE)
- Sport Chrome wheels and rotors
- spark plugs
- Brake pads
- Cleaning Ohlins fork cartridges
- getting the lower forks and slider covers powder coated black

Operation is simple Pull clutch in while in gear Shift to N. Reach down push down on lever move it forward let clutch out. If you do it wrong it has a kill switch that kills the engine to avoid any damage . Bike is dirty in this picture riding in snow . Also had a 190/60-R16 Car tire mounted before I picked it up.

Got my bike back yesterday; haven't had a chance to ride it yet (bike was picked up and returned by dealership):
  • SE Stage II TQ cam (bike sounds so much better now; SE Street Cannon slip-ons, SE Hi flow AC, SEPST)
  • Clutch Actuator Recall
  • Lighted Hand Control Switches (CB in the future)

Default Bought one!



I am currently stationed in Japan and my 2016 was being stored at Seminole HD. Worked with Tim and was able to trade the 2016 for a 2019 FLHXS. Dealer swapped my bars, grips, seat, and docking hardware to the new ride. I can't wait to get home next month and take Mila on her first ride!
