Default Exhaust
New to trikes, just picked up an 18 Tri-glide last weekend. About 500 miles on the bike. On all my touring bikes I have had the right pipe darkened first, on the trike the left side is darkening first. Anyone else seen this? Thanks

#33 is an extension/reducer which may cause a little extra back pressure causing the left side to darken quicker.

I have a fm jackpot header from the rg, Jamie said it would fit, however I ordered a decatted from fleabay $125 shipped. Will try that first, after 1k service. Want to see how much louder the stock mufflers are without the cat.

How Much are you paying for the 93 Octane ethanol free over there in Georgia? I am south east of B'ham and I can't find 93 ethanol free anywhere close to me.

Stock 2018 107 M8 with 3,600 miles, I don't clean or wipe the inside of the exhaust so, what you see is what it is.
