Repacking motorcycle mufflers

- I pulled the baffles out of my Road King and removed the packing from around them about a month ago. I put the baffles back in and while it was louder, it was a bit louder than my ears like and I was experiencing decell pop at an annoying level. Lesson learned. If it aint broke, dont fix it. I removed the baffles, repacked them and reinstalled them. Its a very quiet bike now, and I'll just live with it. If I only have two options, too loud, or too quiet, I choose too quiet.

Nice fix to get what you want. Nice looking bikes. Thanks for the update.
Thanks!
Love what you keep in your cup holder 😁
Me too!!
Still sounds loud enough for me. Bikes are looking beautiful!!
It’s loud enough for me. I’m more convey about it running right than being loud.
Fuelpak tuner is one solution. Slip on’s with the tuner is an option. Always enjoy your videos!
I’d like to avoid a tuner if I can. This is fuel injected so the fuel map will compensate for minor changes in intake or exhaust. I’m gonna just live with a whispering Harley.
@@bctruck I changed my exhaust, and air cleaner. Many people said that I would have to remap. I didn't want to pay for the tuner but did. I've been happy with my Vance and Hines FP tuner. It works from my iPhone and that's pretty cool. I choose the Bassani 2 into one system and I love that as well. It's a fun thing to change our motorcycles to fit our desire.
I am the same age as you and have a couple of health issues so I empathize with your pains. One thing that would be good for us is a motorcycle lift table. That would keep us off the ground. I only have carports, and I don't have a shed so it's really not an option for me. Ride safe, and keep on riding brother!
Great job, good thing you are mechanically inclined and know what to do to get the results you want. Truckers dictionary, lol. You need a camera set up to watch your gate and mailbox it looks like, bacon thieves are all around. It’s been raining and windy here too. Y’all take care and be safe!
Finally done with the rain. One more day of cold and then it’s riding weather.
That sure is a beautiful bike.👍
Thanks!
Sweet! So I took my stimulus check and a few more bucks and bought a professional quality drone. Had it for about a week and I’m gonna start posting videos again
Im subbed. Ill be watching!!
What would we do without Vise Grips? I hate redoing things! You still need that exercise mat.
Im thinking that this will be my last time on the floor.
May have to do a sniff test around that mail truck 🤔
I asked him today, why he took so long at my mailbox yesterday. he claimed he didnt know what I was talking about and sped off.
@@bctruck The package inspectors at the PO always go home with more than they came with.
Those grips are for electronic throttle. Check inside the throttle grip for a star type shape. It turns the potentiometer for newer bikes. If they are listed for her year the listing is wrong.
I contacted the seller. They are listed wrong. They show the correct grip in the picture, the description is correct for the year,but the part number is for a fly by wire. They are refunding my money and sending me the correct grips.
Missing bacon. That’s a really tough one to prove... About like me standing over an empty donut box denying it was me....
Or sticky fingers and an empty little Debbie snack cake box. Deny,deny,deny!!!
That sucky mailman probably ate you bacon. LOL Bikes are looking Good
lol
I love the mailman stories! I could listen to those again. And why are some of those people that way?
I absolutely LOVE the smell of bacon, especially in my vehicle. 🤐
Yep. It should be an air freshener!
I saw a guy on YT that welded a bugle to his exhaust.😎
He had a rolling new orleans jazz band!
This is not the first missing bacon story I've heard. Guard your bacon, the shortage is real. I though the Harley vibrating was a perk? Hehe you're going to have to get new pipes because she's never going to let you live it down.
At every stop light she will ask me if my motorcycle is running.
Sharp bike 👍🏼
Thanks!
Fun stuff
I wasn't a truck driver but when things don't go well and I'm tempted to use the truck driver dictionary I'm reminded of the part of the Bible that says....
Don't let any unholsome talk come out of your mouth.
Have a Jesus filled day everyone

My mouth is going to burn in the fiery pits of hell.
Fine tuning will get the wanted results.
I've never owned a Harley (yet), but one thing I've never understood is why do people constantly rev them at red lights/stop signs (some people on sport bikes do too)? Are they tuned to where they can't hold an idle? Or, is it a "look at me" type thing? I get that "loud pipes save lives", but seems that many folks over do it (if there isn't an underlying idle issue). Hopefully your bacon comes soon....Mmmmm...Bacon 🥓 🥓 🥓 🥓
I have no idea why people rev thier engines at red lights.
Without that low end power my fat ass would still be sitting at the light :)
Why did you repack them… you didn’t like the sound without packing?
Yeah, I like loudish pipes but these were way too loud.
@@bctruck I was thinking of removing the packing but skeptical… local Harley dealer said nothing happens the only thing that might change is the fuel consumption
Nice bacon!
Since it's usually easy to remove the baffles, I would have first tried only putting in 1/4 the amount of packing and go up from there.
Ok.
We got to have that low in power
Is that my extender flashlight I just spent all my loves points to get
Ha! I have bought a lot of goodies with love points. Here is something that will tell how old you are,,,,, gold bond stamps.
@@bctruck up till last year the Texaco here in town still had their s&h greenstamps sign up they remodeled the store and removed it last year I don’t guess anyone trades them stamps anymore
Brad we have snow flurries up here
I have pollen flurries. The air is actually yellow it’s so thick.
Hit it !
Your wife has had a terrible time getting things set right. I hope you can solve that pretty quickly. The last thing you want on a bike is something that is distracting your attention away from enjoyment of the ride. Phil
They build bikes to fit the largest segment of society. If your stature falls much outside the group they make them for, it takes a lot of parts to accommodate a small rider.
I bet you can fix that popping with a jet kit. I fixed that war bike's carb for about $16 off Amazon www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01FWCXUPC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 You'd have to order the jet kit for Your bike of course.
These bikes are both fuel injected.
