Ok, dumb Harley Question
So my baby has been sitting for a day, cold engine, dig ?
So I fire my baby up and I notice the right side exhaust, at the tip...just the tip, hahaha,... stock exhaust 'sept for Samson slip ons, getting warm / hot, faster than the "left" side, is this normal, ( 04 TC88 ) ?
This a stupid question really, I *** u me that most of the factory exhaust is spent through the "cross over" and favors the right though path of least resistance but I don't feel like checking the "harder" issues like spark, fuel, oxygen thing so ......I ask this to see if there is an answer to this crazy observation, my bike runs great so there really is no problem, I just want to know why, this is always the fun part.....right

That's my guess as well. Maybe this would more of an interesting question with "true" duals huh.
