Not really on the bike, but I might open up my Cardo Freecom 4 Plus and do some firmware updates prior to mounting it on our HJC FG Jet helmets........which I ordered from RevZilla last night.
Thought about the Bell Mag 9 Sena, but they didn't have the size for my g/f. Plus, the HJCs saved me an additional $80.

I'm thinking of going with the 4 PLUS as it has many of the more desirable features of the Packtalk Bold at almost half the price. After you have been on the road with them, give us a report, please.

Finally installed the Spyderpops rear LED light kit. Really makes the rear of the trike more noticeable. Haven't been able to take it out on a road test due the the wet we've been having lately.

Changed the oil and filters a few days ago. I also did the oil and filters for a friend of mine on his 2015 RTL. Boy what a difference in frustration levels between a 1330 and a 998. Almost enough to make want to go buy one. I get new tires in the morning Monday and will probably put the new brakes on at the same time and the Speed Bleeders. Got to be ready for D3WR. It is just resting today.

Decided to mix a few ideas from Ron, Mike and others so thanks to all.
Extended the breather up nice and high under the cowling, looped it back down, put in a T piece positioned (hopefully) so that if any fuel goes over the hump then it will go via the long hose and miss the canister. Extended the breather up to just behind the right indicator and shoved a small filter on the end. Only concern would be if enough fuel goes through the breather then in theory it could fill the remainder of the breather line past the canister T piece and overflow into the canister. Hopefully this would only happen if I did a stoppie on it. Let me know if you have any other thoughts where the config might fall down.
Also replaced the low beam lights with +120 s. I know out here our setup is different due to design rules. Low beam HB3 and high beam H4. Will replace the H4s a little later. IMG20200531162804.jpgIMG20200531162900.jpg
Took the off the jack stands after repairing the Fenderz lights. These fender lights replace the reflectors on the front fender ( both amber and red ) and are REALLY BRIGHT. Sequential light action for turn signals is very eye catching. TricLED folks are great to work with and stand by their products.

I had to retorque the nuts that held my swaybar links. Apparently, Baja Ron just wants them "snug", or else it would destroy the links. Luckily, I didn't go on an extended ride, just a ride around the block. I'll just have to keep an eye on them *IF* I did damage them somewhat (I didn't use gorilla torque on them initially, so I don't think it'd be an issue down the road).
Sometimes, it pays to read the WHOLE instruction sheet....

Just guessing....would some blue Loctite help to hold the link bolts in place?

Those links are held in place by bolts with 13mm Nylocs, which are self-locking nuts guaranteed not to back out.
So no Locktite is necessary.
