Don't say you weren't warned about the exhaust on a Tri Glide. Those 4 muffler mount bolts are double tough to get your fingers to. Especially for a Neanderthal like yourself... uhhh, sir.

 

the guy was happy though.. Left the house on a wheelie! 76 years old.. Crazy old man!

 

He must have been a Bubba.

I've been running CTD044-03 on my bike for the past week. A/C with Rinehart slipons, and a stock decatted headpipe.

I did the cam analyzer, and am going to try and get some vtune time in this weekend, or earlier if I can.

After looking over the MT Cal File Listing, and the MT2 listings, and reading the instructions, I want to make sure I've got the correct file before moving forward.

The MT Cal File describes CTD044-03 as "exhaust", while the MT2 listing says "race pipe." The TTS for Dummies cautions against using a file that is "too much."

Other files, such as CTC044-03 are listed for the "stock exhaust." I guess I have a stock exhaust, although it is de-catted, and has aftermarket slipons.

So, is CTD044-03 good, or CTC044-03, or even CTD009-03 a better file to start with?

Or...did I miss the best file for my bike altogether?

 

what bike and what list of mods are done sir?

 

It's an '11 Ultra Classic with the round SE airfilter, a stock, but decatted head pipe and Rinehart slipons.

I'm looking at CTD044-03 (currently loaded), CTC044-03, CTC009-03, or CTD009-03.....or again, is there a better file I'm simply not seeing? Thanks.

 

CTD044..

the CTD009 does not have the settings in ECM tuning constants for Idle Spark and the CTC files are for stock exhaust setups. yours is not stock any longer

 

I will proceed as planned then, just wanted to be sure the "race pipe" description in the CTD044 file wasn't too much. Thanks again.

 

I will give the #2 setting a try tonight but last night I had the idle pulled down to 800 for the Vtune and it was smooth like butter.

 

My S&S 625 cams IVO breaks slightly upwards @ 2 & steeper @ 3. Will try your suggestion, & try 3. Goes to show what you miss if you don't pay close attention to the wording in the instructions. - Rob.
