Removing the catalytic converter from stock head pipe along with free flowing slip on’s make a huge difference .
Yes it does! Thanks for commenting!👍😎👍 MB
Love these guys. They sell the best stuff and customer service is top notch.
Glad you like the video and have found our Customer Service to be great! We appreciate your business and support!! Thank you for commenting! 👍😎👍 MB
Great video 😉👍
I’ve done most of those mods on my 12 Softail with parts I purchased from DK. Great quality and they work as intended. Tomorrow I will install the Jagg oil cooler that you guys had delivered today.
Awesome! Glad you are enjoying the benefits of having them installed! I know your bike will be happy cooling down that oil!!!!! Thank you for your business and for commenting! MB
Just installed a a Cobra PowerPro Black on my 06 Springer Softail Injected, paired with a Cobra air cleaner and Sifton breather system, what a difference it makes Man!
Glad you have gotten your bike running how you want it to! Thank you for commenting! MB
The only items that you've mentioned that help with engine cooling while at its hottest are the oil cooler and fan. While you're sitting at a red light while in 100-degree heat, none of the other mods do a single bit of good
It is reasonable to reach that conclusion. However, there are few facts that are a bit counterintuitive, or not readily apparent:
1. Engines run hotter at highway speed than in stop-n-go traffic, or just sitting at a red light. We have many videos documenting that, here is a link to just one of them- th-cam.com/video/qMVwT0nunfU/w-d-xo.html
2. The cooler the engine is when riding it, the cooler it will be at a red light.
3. Cooling the oil, while important, has a very small effect on cooling the engine.
4. The Source of the heat is the engine, the oil just absorbs a little bit of the heat generated.
5. Cooling the engine down will cool the oil down
6. These are air cooled engines, except for the Twin Cooled models, and those only use coolant or oil to cool the exhaust valves, no other part of the engine.
Here is a Link to a report that shows how much each different component cools down the engine. www.dkcustomproducts.com/why-how-to-cool-down-your-twin-cam-engine-part-ii-dk-cl-tc-dn-2.htm
FOR EXAMPLE: Just a Tank Lift/CDW combo will cool the engine 18-25 F. No oil cooler will cool the engine down that much.
I believe you will find the link above very interesting.
Here is a link to a playlist of videos that talk about WHY & HOW to cool down a Twin Cam & M8 Engine.

Thank you for the comment. 👍😎👍 KP
The fan however will do all that. And also increase the cooling while riding because now you get natural air flow and the fan. So the fan is by far the best option. Especially if you hate the way a tank lift looks.
The electric fan oil coolers are wired to a heat sensor and only kicks on when you're in stop and go traffic, not while running highway speeds. From what I understand, the jug fans work the same way. I've done most of the cooling mods , except the fans, and they definitely help cool the motor while on the move. My problem is how long the cooler runs after starting to move again.
You can wire the fans to a switch instead, and run them all you want!!!
Why is it a problem how long the oil cooler fan runs after starting to move again? I've had many oil coolers with fans and whether they are running when going down the road at 40 mph or 70 mph has never entered my mind as any king of issue.

Awesome video!!!!
Glad you like it! Thank you for commenting! MB
DK, those TTI's work " Gr8 "
Glad you are seeing the benefits of having them installed! Thank you for your business and for commenting! MB
I watched your video about removing the cats on an M8 and not needing a tune. I purchased a 2-1-2 catless header that still uses my factory mufflers. The header came with 12mm and 18mm O2 bungs. The motor indeed runs fine and actually feels like it’s running better. I have a 114 and I actually can run away from my buddies 117 now. Previously I could not run away from him. 4,000 rpm engine braking….. no pops from lean deceleration. I was skeptical and I’m now a solid fan.✌🏼
Glad you have gotten your bike to running how you want it to! Thank you for the support and for commenting! MB
@@DKCustomProducts thanks for the reply, also the most important part of my quest was how hot the catalytic converter was. The bike is so much more comfortable to ride now. No change in fuel economy that I can really tell. I purchased a thundermax tuner for a later time where I plan for an air cleaner and cam. Going to Sturgis this year and I don’t want to risk reliability this soon before I plan to ride 1,300 miles one way. 🤓✌🏼
Yes, that cat gets very hot and can be extremely uncomfortable. Fortunately on the Gen I M8's removing it does not necessitate a different tune, nor does it have a perceptible impact on how the bike runs.
Good choice on holding off on the Thundermax. KP
I agree 100% about one MAIN OVERLOOKED ITEM besides ALL of y'alls EXCELLENT TIPS.... BASIC MOTOR PERFORMANCE IS THIS SIMPLY......MORE AIR ++ MORE FUEL = MORE POWER.....and that's really a NO BRAINER......BUT..... MANY Do so tend to OVERLOOK THIS Simple thought...... EVERYTHING TRUELY MUST,...MUST WORK IN BEAUTIFUL HARMONY TOGETHER.....or there will be unseen power left....or problems somewheres else on down the line !!! More often than not....one change,upgrade,swap,etc...will mean another one needed to compliment or work TOGETHER WITH that change....so as to €qual== HARMONY== and it is an AWESOME ACCOMPLISHMENT WHEN DONE CORRECTLY,and will create Better POWER,TORQUE, PERFORMANCE,AND EVEN LONGEVITY for your pride n joy....." SPEED COST MONEY--$$--HOW FAST YA WANNA GO ?? " LMAO 😂--WORDS OF WISDOM....RIDE HARD...RIDE FAST...AND RIDE SAFE ALL...✌️🤜🤛🤔⚡💥⚡💯⚡💥⚡👍

Stop ramdomly capitalizing... Adulting isn't difficult.👌
I put the cooling deflector wings on my Ultra. Yes, they really work. Coupled with a Klock Werks or Freedom Shield wind screen, the turbulence behind the fairing is all but eliminated.
Glad that you are enjoying the benefits of having the Cooling Deflector wings installed. Thank you for commenting! MB
What’s Up Kevin and Duane, Thanks for your Helpful Videos Brothers, Y’all’s The Good Shit my Friends
You are very welcome! -Dwayne
HI Dwayne & Kevin, love your guys products. WISH we could make it up to yall's open house.
We wish you could make it as well! Glad you like the products and videos! Thank you for your business and for commenting! MB
As a Harley V twin engine has got way bigger threw the years I went with a ultra limited with the water cooled head and just made it a street glide by doing all the quick release for tour pack etc. I have the best of both worlds and It cools the engine really well. I also removed the cat and I use Thundermax ecm I can manage it with my lap top to whatever I want.
Sounds like you have gotten your bike exactly how you want it. Thanks for commenting! MB
It would be nice to make a single long video about all best available reliability, engine mods.
Compensator.
Oil fan cooler.
Gears instead of cam chain.
Cam plate
Tank lift...etc
Thank you for the input. I will pass it along!!!

Do those tank mods on a tri glide with a ferring help cool?
Yes, the Tank Lift will cool the engine on a Tri Glide by 10-15 F, and the CDW's will cool the engine another 8-10 F on top of that.
You can see documentation on both of these, along with other mods and documentation at this link- www.dkcustomproducts.com/why-how-to-cool-down-your-twin-cam-engine-part-ii-dk-cl-tc-dn-2.htm
They all work very well on the Tri Glide!
The joy of living in a much cooler UK, having an oil cooled M8 with an Arlen Ness Velocity V9 and a 2bros shorty turnout, with a DK Customs head breather catch can venting both the crankcase pressure and head gases into it. Only downside is that shitty closed loop half of a Dynojet map during cruising, though does release the approx 7hp harley hid in the factory street bob map ; ) just need me a Darkhorse Crankworks cush comp to stop my fucker from exploding ha ha
I am sure your cooler weather is helpful. Sounds like you have a nice set up!!! You have a dyno jet tune that you aren't happy with? Do you have a power vision?
Thanks for commenting! MB
The cheapest performance enhancer for any motorcycle bar none is inflate your tyres to the correct psi.
👍😎👍 Thank you for your input and for commenting! MB
Agree with you on that, so important we made an entire video just on that subject, you can see it here- th-cam.com/video/DrLXIhM-eXU/w-d-xo.html
I think another big one for those that have stock HD headers is removing that catalytic converter.
I removed mine and instantly noticed more torque and those pipes weren't glowing red anymore.
That is a lot of heat you can save right there if you don't want to buy new headers or live in CA like me lol
Yes, removing the catalytic converter certainly helps with the felt heat!

@@DKCustomProducts Interesting video, I swear I felt a difference since I have not changed my SE slip on. It felt stronger instantly with throttle response where before it felt like it was choking. So much louder too! lol
You guys are quickly becoming a favorite channel to binge watch and learn so many things about reasonable cooling methods.
I have a 2016 Low Rider, that I'm planning to modify with your products.
Trying to figure out how to do the external breather system with my SE Ventilator Performance Air Cleaner Kit.
Awesome! I am glad that our videos are providing knowledge and help. Please email our Customer Service a picture of your Air Cleaner back plate and they will help you choose what EBS will work and how to install it.

Does an exhaust wrap lower engine temps?
No it doesn't but Wrapping your pipes will increase your performance, while reducing radiant heat by up to 50%.
Keeping exhaust gases hotter within the pipes increases exhaust scavenging, which reduces intake temperatures, resulting in increased horsepower and torque.

My temperature on my dipstick usually hits 200 is that too hot ……I have a 96b TC heritage Softail also clutch doesn’t seem like it hooks up like it should would I benefit from an extra plate kit with heavy duty spring?
An extra plate kit does not necessarily need heavier springs. Figure an extra plate adds 20~25% clutch surface area without extra lever effort.
@@pb68slab18 ok so i can get the barnett extra plate kinda kit and not get the heavier spring
That is a great oil temp!
Your stock clutch should have no problem slipping on a stock or Stage I 96b TC. I would check the adjustment of the clutch first.
Thanks for the comment, and congrats on having your oil temp down at 200. 👍😎👍
KP
@@DKCustomProducts thank you I have adjusted it like 4 times feels for a little bit then just feel kinda sloppy after that …has 30k miles on it
Could still be the adjustment, could be the primary fluid being used, could be a weak spring, could be glazed plates. II like to go from the least expensive/least amount of work, down the list, during the process of elimination to determine what is causing an issue. KP
Do you make a tank lift kit for a 2024 Breakout
We do make an M8 Softail Tank Lift. You would first need to check and make sure your tank ears are in a position that a tank lift can be installed. You can go to this link and look at the 3rd and 4th picture to see if your tank ears are compatible - www.dkcustomproducts.com/softail-milwaukee-eight-model-tank-lift-kit.htm
You will also need to check for clearance. Checking for clearance not only allows you to insure fitment, it also allows you to see which size will look best on your bike.
It is easy to check for clearance, Before ordering:
1. With bike on kickstand, take the bolt out of the front of your tank.
2. Loosen (do not remove) the bolt(s) at the rear of your tank.
3. Turn your handlebars all the way to the left and raise the tank up your desired tank lift size to check for clearance issues.
4. Turn your handlebars all the way to the right and raise the tank up your desired tank lift size to check for clearance issues.
Be careful when lifting your tank, you do not want to hit against something (forks, handlebars, trees, blinkers, etc.) when checking for clearance.
You can see the M8 Softail tank lift at the link above.

Is there anybody doing water injection on Harleys ?
That is not something that we have looked into or done any research on! I am sorry that I can not be of much more help!
You can check the forums to see if there is anyone on there that has done any research or knows of anyone doing water injection.

Please explain, or post a link to what you are talking about.
Thank you, we are always interested in things that can improve our rides. KP
Tank lifts are the ugliest thing anyone can do to destroy the esthetics or design goals of your bike… unless you time travel to 1976 and run a peanut on a chopper it’s a dumb suggestion.
Thank you for sharing your opinion!
We understand that the tank lift look isn’t for everyone, and that's what makes customizing bikes so unique and personal. Many of our customers appreciate the tank lift for its practical benefits, such as improved air circulation and a cleaner front-end look. Whether you're going for a classic or modern look, it's all about what makes you happy with your ride. We appreciate your input and are always open to hearing different perspectives!
Thanks for commenting! MB
