Has anybody had issues with turn signal hyperflash? So I got the Custom Dynamics rear turn signal LED kit, and my turn signals flash at the normal rate, but the turn signal light on the dash flashes fast now. I'm going to be putting the Drag Specialties slim line LEDs up front while changing out the bars. Will I need a load equalizer with having both front and rear LED turn signals?
EDIT: Custom Dynamics beat me to it..

You won't need a load equalizer on a '16. The turn signals just need to be synced with the CANbus system. Try these directions linked below, and if the issue persists, just give us a call at 800-382-1388 and we can get you squared away. https://www.customdynamics.com/media...US_TS_SYNC.pdf
Awesome, will try when I get home. Thanks for the quick response!
I can’t imagine without baffles, lol, mine sounds great as is
Agree, mine sound good. Just wondering if the sound would be the same without baffles, but obviously just louder. I'm going to get the FP3 and an aftermarket intake. From the reviews and videos of the FP3, looks like they have an option to choose VH big radius W/O baffles, so just curious if anyone had done it. Again, mine sound great, no complaints.
Transport Mode....? The previous owner of my SB didn't have the owners manual. I've watched several youtube videos of various models but no Breakouts. Is it the same for all Softails?

It was a little different for pre CANbus bikes, but this is from my '14 owners manual and I think it would be the same for your '16.

ok all my Breakout bros...does your stock headlight shake like crazy when sitting still?? I've noticed that when I start my bike up and let it idle, the headlight shakes noticeably and I can see the light bouncing around off the wall in my garage. I'm assuming this is to dampen vibration and preserve the bulb...but man it vibrates a lot. It's just odd coming from a Road King where the headlight was rock solid. So, my question...is this normal, or is there something that I need to tighten?

Also, another question to the Breakout bros...what have you done about the clear plastic protector on your rear fender? I removed mine due to the large amount of bubbles in it. It looked like dog **** so I pulled it off. The fender looks amazing, but I know from experience on my Road King, the paint will scuff over time where the passenger seat makes contact. If you've removed the clear plastic protector, what have you done (if anything) to protect the paint from the passenger pillon?

Depending on where you live, many custom shops now install clear bra's. Have them install you some 3M clear film where the seat rests. It will look like new.
