I live in Oklahoma , I can feel what he is saying .. I have all new V&H thundermax richer , 103 streetglide special breather and it flows some air ...and all I have is a 96" bakes your ***** ... remount your ignition coil to the horn location and use one side of the crotch cooler ... needs to be bigger on one side than the other air flow behind the rear cylinder ... will help cool things off some ... oil cooler is what im doing next also .... running 75-80 mph highway .... I run 225 temp..after an hour all day
no difference ... richer leaner its just what it runs ...


Im hoping to pull 20 degrees off of it ...... but who knows I recently bought the 2005 touring cooler kit .... I have to get a 05 voltage regulator when I get it mounted... but as of right now Im gonna have to figure out ....weld some sort of mount so the cooler will have something to mount too. a FXSTC just doesn't have anything as Im sure yours doesn't either...
