Default Headquarters Cams

Please call doug at Headquarters, I'm sure the new Wyrd Bros Cams will work with the new compression ratios of the 2016.

They very well may, I know lzski is riding an 09 with an S&S 106 top end. I've always had pretty good results with Doug's stuff, my 120 is a hoot to ride.

i have a 2009 trike with 103 i put vance and hines pipes and a dry air filter and purchased a tts mastertune programmed'
by a great tune up mechanic he did a very good job on the tune up with the tts mastertune this a very good product
i have used the power commander and the harley super tuner and several others on different bikes and the tts is by
far the best one oiut there i think. It is very smoot and has plenty of power and get better fuel mileage..
By the way he did not have a dyno to work with it has a way to ride and tune mode

SO I am getting ready to do a 107 to 117 big bore kit, RS 468 cam, Vance and Hines Power Duals exhaust and Heavy Breather Air on my wife's 2018 Freewheeler, any tips or think to look out for? I just did my 17 Street Glide Special and a friends 18 Sport Glide.

Default Stage 1 Upgrade

First thing I did was the Stage 1 Upgrade. I went with the Screamin' Eagle Chisel Extreme Billet Air Filter and the Vance Hines Twin Slash Exhaust. Looks great, sounds greater, increased performance, and looks fantastic. Here's a couple of pics.


Really enhances the Chrome...

Hi

did this ever get done? I’ve just been told by my hd dealers they won’t fit anything past stage 2 on my 2019 Freewheeler. I wanted the 131 kit. I’ve also looked at the 117 upgrade. Surely if the cvo can handle @a 117 my Freewheeler can?

It is a matter of EPA certification here in the states, the 131 has not received EPA certification for being in a trike yet. I am sure it will fit and work but HD will not do it becase it is not approved yet.

I was told it was due to the rear axle not being able to take the torque. How true is this or is it typical HD over kill on protecting their bikes/trikes
