Hawg Halters

V-Rod billet trees

Hawg Halters has turned its attention to the V-Rod and announced a new custom 55 mm triple tree for models with an inverted front end configuration. 

Available in 4, 6 and 8 degree rake, the company says that they allow for "the proper building of a V-Rod Trike conversion (4 degrees), a 23 inch wheel upgrade on a two-wheel
V-Rod (6 degrees) or a 26 inch front wheel on a two-wheel V-Rod (8 degrees)."
Available in black, machine or chrome finish, these trees cover all V-Rod models with inverted front ends and all Muscle versions. The company says that the new trees are "tested for ride, control and fit and are 40 percent stronger than a cast triple tree."

Dowco

Iron Rider bag options

DOWCO has launched a range of new 'Iron Rider' brand bags, which includes the Brute sissybar bag and the Weekender bag.
The Brute sissybar bag is described by Dowco as being big enough to carry the gear needed for a week-long rally. “We didn’t set out to design a small, modest bag, our goal was to design a bag that could carry it all for the long haul and look classy, and that’s exactly what the Brute will do,” said Dowco Brand Engineer, Mitch Andrews.
The Brute can mount to the bike’s luggage rack or back seat, and can be used as a driver backrest. 

Made from 1680 denier polyester, features include water resistant zippers, a rain cover with optional expansion, and mesh internal pockets with a laptop sleeve, reflective piping, and external D-rings for added carrying capacity.
The Weekender includes an integrated sissybar mounting system that can mount on a luggage rack or on the back seat, where it can be used as a driver backrest.

Integrated straps allow the bag, which has a thermoformed EVA armored large main compartment and measures 7 x 9 x 13.5in, to be easily converted into a backpack. Both are supplied with a two-year limited warranty.

DEI adds Turbo Shields

Avon Lake, Ohio based thermal and sound control specialist Design Engineering Inc. has added to its popular ONYX Series heat shield kits with a design specifically to deal with the heat issues generated by the increasing use of turbo chargers in powersports applications.

Turbo systems are the easiest and most cost-effective way to bolt on horsepower, and DEI's Turbo Shields are used to cover the housing, which helps maintain a more consistent temperature in the turbo, increasing efficiency and decreasing turbo lag.
With turbos located in an exposed position near the rider’s leg in many installations, the Turbo Shield also acts as a barrier, protecting the rider’s leg from discomfort or even injury.
DEI's Onyx Series flexible Turbo Shields are available for most of the popular turbo systems used in the powersports industry, including Mitsubishi units and the smaller Garrett GT 22 and GT25 turbo housings. DEI say that as an added value, their powersports Turbo Shield kits also include a 2” x 25’ roll of premium DEI exhaust wrap, ties and locking wire.

Daytona Twin Tec

Blueprinted matched-set fuel injectors

Daytona Twin Tec has three high-performance replacement fuel injector designs available - for 2001 to 2005 models; 2006 and later throttle cable models, V-Rod models, and 2008 and later electronic throttle control models.

Made in the USA using "the latest injector technology", there are 10 different standard flow rates to accommodate most engine configurations.  

The DTT 190 series for 2001 - 2005 models

For non-Ethanol and common Ethanol fuel (E10) Daytona Twin Tec say they calibrate their injectors at 60 percent duty cycle for 95 to 225 maximum hp in 2001 - 2005 applications; 85 to 225 maximum hp in 2006 and later throttle cable models and 115 to 225 maximum hp for 2008 and later electronic throttle control models. They flow between 4.5 and 10.6 gm/sec in 2001 - 2005 models and 3.9 gm/sec '06 and up throttle cable models (at 58 psi and 25/18 degree spray angles, and 5.4 to 10.6 gm/sec at 58 psi with 18 degree spray angle) in 2008 and up electronic throttle control models.  

The DTT 210 series for 2008 and later electronic throttle control models

For E-85 applications, from 95 to 165 hp in the case of 2001 - 2005 applications; 95 to 165 hp for the 2006 and later throttle cable models and 95 to 165 hp for the 2008 and later electronic throttle control models, at 80 percent duty cycle using regular E85 pump gas, flowing between 6.2 and 10.6 gm/sec at 58 psi with 25 or 18 degree spray angles as appropriate.

The DTT 200 series for 2006 and later throttle cable models

Custom sizes up to 15 gm/sec are available for all applications.
Kevin Baxter, Tech Support Manager at Daytona Twin Tec, told AMD Magazine that "We test these injectors from 6 to 18 volts and from 40 to 100 psi. Each set of injectors comes with the results from that test. When installing a supercharger or turbo, one typically uses a variable pressure fuel pump to ensure proper delivery of fuel across the entire operating range. This means they can adjust voltage to the pump or the pressure of the pump.
"Having the actual injector flow rates for those ranges tells the installer exactly how much fuel they will deliver based on their settings and how they change them across the operating range.
"This is very valuable.  All our injectors, for all applications, are blueprinted and sold as a flow-matched set."

Kevin Baxter, Technical Director at Daytona Twin Tec, says that "We test these injectors from 6 to 18 volts and from 40 to 100 psi"

All Daytona Twin Tec injectors come with a limited 3-year warranty and ship as blueprinted flow-matched sets complete with test reports

BikeCapsule

Circulating the air maximizes protection

CARCAPSULE has expanded its product offering by introducing a version of its inflatable vehicle cover designed especially for motorcycles. 

The BikeCapsule is an inflatable bubble that completely seals and protects the bike from dings, dust, dirt, corrosion, mildew, musty odors, and pests. Inflation of the BikeCapsule is maintained by a high-pressure fan that provides continuous airflow to not only keep the vehicle dry, but also prevent condensation. Air inside the bubble is exchanged with filtered outside air up to eight times every hour, keeping the temperature inside consistent with the temperature outside and eliminating moisture that could condense on the motorcycle.
The inflation of the BikeCapsule also creates a bubble that helps to protect the motorcycle from dings, dents and scratches.
Indoor versions of the BikeCapsule are made with durable 10mm clear PVC, and feature a floor made from 18mm material that is mildew, abrasion and flame resistant, as well as impervious to oil, gas and antifreeze. Outdoor versions are being launched soon.
