I'm really loving your Bike stand... 300# 3/4 fittings with Schedule 80 nipples??? What's that a 2 1/2" nipple between the 90 and T and what is the length of the throw arm? I'm a Pipe fitter myself....
I was going to say the same thing. That’s a slick homemade stand!
FedEx showed up and I got the intake and PV4 installed, flashed the Fuel Moto tune, cleaned up the new exhaust with some denatured alcohol and fired her up. First thing I noticed was just how loud the TBR pipes were! Second thing was how quiet the top end was. When I was removing the factory exhaust, it was apparent that there must have been a leak at the rear head as the bolts were pretty loose. The little bit of ticking I was hearing and associating to valve noise was actually a leak in the stock system.
Pretty happy with the new PV4, it’s stupid easy. Way more so than what I was familiar with on a KTM 1290 and PCV/Autotune where a laptop was needed. All I had to do with the PV4 was plug it into the bike and whip out my phone and upload the map FM had sent to the app, then flash to bike. Simple. I was kinda disappointed not having the “quick tune” area that is on the older Power Vision units. I think to make any fuel table adjustments I’ll have to find my old PC based laptop that I had for the Power Commander 5 on the KTM.
I was also impressed with the Fuel Moto AC/DC intake. I had never seen one in person and the pics on the web don’t do it justice. It’s a quality piece. I didn’t have time to do the external breather mod, but definitely will.
I do have some decel pop that I want to take care of, not sure how much I’ll be able to get rid of with such a short pipe like the TBR. Pretty confident there aren’t any exhaust leaks, but double checking the joints is on my list today before I take it out again. I had ordered a set of James Gaskets tapered seals and I’m glad I also bought a set from the dealership when I picked up a new exhaust stud. The James’s were smaller than the stock gaskets, looks like they’d be easier to install, but the stock ones slid in easy with a 50mm bearing race install tool and careful prep of the head. The system fit very well, with one exception, the front header could be just a tad longer in the downtube. As it stands now, I can’t run the front heat shield. It makes contact under the foot peg mount. Not really a concern, I like the look without the shields and the heat isn’t noticeable in Kevlar lined Rokker jeans.
Just a short, spirited 50 mile shakedown yesterday evening, but I’m pretty happy with it. No pre install dyno run to prove what hp or torque I gained, but being as loud as it is, sure makes you think it’s faster. 😄
The first pipe I went to on my current bike was a Fab28. Very similar to the TBR. I had a ton of decel pop. Fuel Moto sent me a custom tune for my PV2 which helped some but I think with the short can pipes it never fully goes away. I'm running a thunderheader now. Bike looks great. I love the stainless look!
Got the engine fins shined up and the fairing back on with the much argued painted windshield (Small Painting Job Help - Harley Davidson Forums (hdforums.com) I've never seen so many people get defensive and angry over a simple ****ing question). The paint, BTW, turned out badass! I have a Laminar lip that I need to get mounted next.
Now if the friggin weather would dry up I could take it out for the first shakedown.

Shoot. Why wouldn't you paint it? That looks great! Quarter fairings look sweet with the laminar lip. Thumbs up on that!
Thanks, man! And, yeah that's what I thought. Did you see some of the replies that tread? At the end, some of those guys were attacking over it.
I'll have to check it out haha. Grown men getting worked up over someone else's bike is pure comedy. There was a guy on this thread a while back who posted comment about "mini fairings & t bars" and how it made him want to puke. Considering he can't tell the difference between t bars & bars & risers I thought about trolling him but decided to take the high road. I'm hear to get new ideas from people and learn things about working on my bike. T bars are some of the most comfortable bars out there. 😎

I'm pretty sure I saw that post. And I'm with you brother, the setup I have fits me perfect and is comfortable as hell and gives me great command of the bike. I fought the look for a long time, but once I tried it, I love it!

Those are just pics I found online to illustrate the difference between the 2 sets of footboards.
