68 nNovember 2016n www.thunderpress.net THUNDER PRESS Loaded pipes Developed in conjunction with Vance and Hines, the latest from Bagger Nation combines stellar looks with performance and a cheeky name, the Cult Forty Five Exhaust System. Designed to work with all late-model Harley- Davidson Touring bikes (except the new Milwaukee-Eight, but that's on the draw- ing board), this system consists of a 4" muffl er with 4.5" stepped-out tips and a 2.5" louvered core with a removable fi berglass wrap. An upgrade to the "collector design" will deliver full-coverage 2.5" header heat shields, a unique mesh insert 4.5" main body housing capped with a 4.5"-diameter end cap and a nine-piece tune able baffl e system. Both systems come in either chrome or black and each is available with four different end caps to suit your personal taste. Coming in a wide variety of end tips, fi nishes and options, contact your dealer for pricing.

Recently added to the product line is the TourIST Tall Seat with Air for Harley FL models 2008-present that is engineered for riders with longer legs or those who desire to sit further back and lower in the saddle. The company's proprietary seat design eliminates compres- sion, body shock and vibration by removing conventional sections of the seat pan and replacing them with anatomically-engineered cutouts. The rider seat measures 15.5" in width and offers a 6" deep back support. The passenger pad is 13" wide. A l eather seating surface and automotive-grade vinyl side panels are standard. An optional AirHawk IST model features an internal AirHawk cushion along with a breathable, waterproof mesh. Call for pricing.

In 2006 H-D engineers sought to alleviate the situation and developed an automatic ratcheting primary chain tensioner. Problem was the tensioner could only ratchet tighter to take up slack and not compensate for a tight spot in the primary chain. The result was premature wear of the primary drive and even bearing failure. As a solu- tion Twin Power has developed the Tension Reliever Manual Primary Chain Adjuster. Machined from 6061-T6 aluminum that is hard anodized, the adjuster also features a 4 140 steel adjusting screw and a heavy- duty 6/6 nylon shoe. Please note that the Tension Reliever is only for use with a 34-tooth sprocket and that removal of the outer primary cover is required to adjust chain tension. The suggested retail price is $195.
