    I’m riding a 23 Road Glide ST with the same heavy breather. First off - Great tutorial! I’m 6’ 1 and the snorkel is in the way, and not just a little bit. Glad to see that the new setup is working out. I’m going to do the same. Thanks!!

    I had the heavy breather on my 2009 1200XL and loved it. I was thinking of putting one on my 2011 FLTRUSE, but perhaps not now.

      The heavy breather with mid controls is ok. With forward controls....it doesn't work...at least for me. I've ridden a low rider st with the heavy breather and its no problem.

    I lucked out on my Low Rider ST. I had my dealer install a Vance and Hines Hi Output 2 into 1 in stainless immediately. Vance and Hines supplied a 5/8” thick, powder coated machined spacer for the right side rider peg. I added Joker Machine Long Serrated pegs which widens my stance more than enough to stay clear of the stock heavy breather.

    Like the new intro - good job! It is funny as we all do same upgrades no matter what new bike we get. I definitely do the same on my end. While I love the look of this OEM filter yes it is not the smartest design. New AC looks sharp.

    Just wondering if there are any tuning issues when changing from the heavy breather to the ventilator?
    Thanks

    • @HDVIBE
      @HDVIBE  5 месяцев назад

      Thanks Jeffery for watching and commenting. To answer your question there were no tuning issues after changing out the breather. The Extreme ventilator gets a bit more air into the bike but the ECM adjusts the mixture ratios enough to not cause any issues. I subsequently did do some smart tune sessions just to adjust the base map to my riding style, but, it really didn't seem to be necessary. If you are already a subscriber to the channel...thank you.

    Any tuning done? I have a 5-inch TAB Performance slip on installed on my Road Glide ST. I just added the ventilator extreme breather based on your recommendation. Should I perform a tune? I never tuned this bike before - it's a 2023 Road Glide ST

    • @HDVIBE
      @HDVIBE  11 месяцев назад

      Thanks for watching and commenting. No need to put a tune on it. However, when I put a Stage 1 tune on mine, throttle response is now much better. You can check out that video in the Street Glide ST playlist. If you are already a subscriber to the channel...thank you.

    I did the same, Heavy Breather to Ventalator Extream. Now I have the back part of the VE in the top inside of my calf at all times and not comfortable. Thinking of going back to the HB as the only time my shin hits the elbow is when I hit the rear brake. Just my thought & opinion.

    • @HDVIBE
      @HDVIBE  Год назад

      Thanks for watching and commenting with your experience. The Ventilator Extreme could definitely be up against your calf. I've put some miles on mine and so far I'm liking the Ventilator Extreme better than the Heavy Breather. If you are already a subscriber to the channel...thank you.

      Thanks Roger for watching and commenting. Since the original heavy breather was a high flow breather and the Ventilator Extreme is a high flow breather, no need to re-tune the bike.

      Thanks for watching and commenting. You don't need to tune the bike if you make that switch. There isn't that much difference in the air flow to necessitate doing a tune.
