Default Vance & Hines Power Duals

Has anyone installed a set of V & H Power Duals on a 2013 Tri Glide. I had a set of these on my 2011 Ultra and when comparing where the O2 sensors are on my 2013 TG versus where they are on the Power Duals I'm wondering if there is enough extra wire to still connect to the Sensors, especially the one that is up by the back of the air cleaner on the back of the pipe?

I've got the V&H power duals on my 12 Triglide. The sensors harness is fine.

Well, I got one heck of a deal on a brand new set of Power Duals over on the Touring Parts Forum. $400 bucks shipped to me. Just got done ordering the V & H Trike Extension Kit for the Power Duals. I'm fairly mechanically inclined so I think once my new Lift Table shows up I'm going to install these myself.

Any suggestions or cautions from those that have installed the Power Duals on their TG?

No cautions, but I might suggest sending your new table lift to the second post in the thread after installation.

Well, if you were just a tad closer I would let you bring you TG over and work on it. That table is suppose to weight 780#. I'm still trying to figure out a way of getting it off the lift gate when it gets delivered.

Just have it shipped straight to my place, let me worry about how to get it off the liftgate. How much easier could I possibly make it for you..

The 1st lift which weighed 500 lbs I met the truck on the road and the driver and I moved it from the lift gate on to the deck of a utility trailer. I then backed the utility trailer just into the shop and pull it off the trailer until the front was just about ready to come off, I then jacked the front up with a floor jack and drove out from under it.

The 2nd lift which tipped the scales a shade over 700 lbs we had delivered to a friends business who brought it down on a utility trailer. My brother and I drug it off the trailer and into the shop where I un-crated and placed it in its final resting place.

Just saw this post. I'm considering getting the Power Duals and a SE tuner for my 2013 Tri Glide. My primary consideration is to lower the heat. I live in Louisiana and summer days mean scorched calves and inner thighs on the trike if it gets too hot or you're stuck in traffic. Has anyone found that this setup lowered the heat significantly? Two dealer claim it does, but we know dealers.

I put the V&H headpipe on my Anny this winter. I went with the TTS tuner as I haven't yet changed to aftermarket mufflers. Also went with SE breather. Just need winter to pass so I can start with tuning. (#1344)
