    Too my ear....your "de-cated" Pursuit sounds an awful lot like my de-cated Victory XC. The Vic is setup with Lloydz cams, high-flow AF, Tri-Oval exhaust and Maximus tuned. I use this bike for touring(with the Mrs .), the sound level is good, plenty of bark and growl but not overly loud where its not all day ridable.

    • @StormtrooperRides
      @StormtrooperRides  Рік тому +2

      I'm going to take your word for it on the Victory sound as I'm not familiar with how that bike is setup but I think that makes sense. I really like the sound the bike is producing right now, its not overly loud but when you get on it, you can hear it very clearly. When cruising, the bike is hearable but not in a droning kind of way and its very pleasant to head down the interstate on this bike with this setup. Nice setup on that Victory and I hope over time I will be able to visit Lloyds myself and see what they can get out of this bike! Thank you for the comment and stopping by the channel!

      Your bike us set up exactly like my 14 Cross Country, mine was done by Kevin Cross down in Florida 5 years ago, I have the 501 cam. Only bike that could replace it would be the Indian Challenger. You may be right about similar sound of these Tabs compared to the Tri-oval. Keeps my neighbors happy.

      Hey Boss! I watch a ton of your videos as well and I really like your take on motorcycling. I really like the sound my Rineharts are making, I considered TAB for the slipons but I felt the Rineharts were deeper sounding. Perhaps the next time I'll dip my toes into the Tab BAM's or something. Right now I really like the volume I'm getting and tone from this setup. Its not too loud but everyone can hear me coming and I think that works great! Thank you for stopping by my channel!!

    I never got the obsession with crazy loud motorcycle pipes, but I do like a nice rumble. My victory cross country came with cobra tri ovals which keep the noise down in my geezer neighborhood, but really shine when I open it up on the country roads here in SW, Ohio, but still are not to loud that I can not enjoy my fairing speakers. I did like the sound of these tabs in the video and some of the tabs are obnoxious for me. What a great bike to get, you will love it and next year I plan to sell my Victory and get the Challenger which was the bike that Victory was going to replace the Cross Country with, but instead the glory goes to Indian. By the way, I like your garage.

If I had known about Indians range before buying my Goldwing last year I'd have gone this way. That is a good looking machine. The Goldwing is fantastic but I sure could put that pursuit in my garage too. Congratulations, lovely bike. Stay safe.

I missed that one, had a Harley in that color all picked out as well...but fell through...then the 23 Pursuit came out and it was a no-brainer! Yes, I run the bike most often with the tour pack off but whenever my wife and I are going on a trip, it'll sure to be back on and also swap to the larger windscreen as well.

    I have a 2022 Pursuit Limited Premium and have a 23 Pursuit Elite on order. I did the full Indian Stage II but didn't do the CAT delete. Did you notice any heat reduction after removing the CAT? I'm worried about that since right now I'm happy with the performance of the Stage II and Rinehart slip-ons. I worry about the bike throwing codes after doing too much. I'm putting TAB 4.5" slip-one with the 2.5" baffles on the Elite when it comes in. I am really curious about the heat reduction by removing the CAT.

    • @StormtrooperRides
      @StormtrooperRides  Рік тому

      I haven't ridden it enough since I did it to tell if the heat is reduced or not. I think it is but then again, I've only ridden around town at this point. I will get some longer rides in, in the coming weeks and I'll make a follow up when I do the review. I'll specifically talk about that. I dont see any reason the heat wouldn't be less at this point since removing the CAT takes out a lot of the heat potential with the more free-flowing system....but then again...i really dont know and I dont want to assume anything yet. so far I'm loving the sound and it rides great so far. thank you for the question and comment. That Elite Pursuit looks like its going to be awesome, would love to hear your thoughts on it when you get it!!

    Great to see someone building up a new Pursuit. Traded in my 21 Chieftain and waiting on my 23 Pursuit to ship. I have Tab slip ons with Zombie baffles waiting and was considering the cat delete. Has the bike thrown any codes since the install?

    • @StormtrooperRides
      @StormtrooperRides  Рік тому

      Thanks Toni and congratulations on your new Pursuit! The bike has been running fine and has thrown no codes. I waited until after my first service to install the cat delete. Unfortunately the ECU has not been broken yet and my intention is to send it to RVS or Lloyds once that happens. I will likely take it in for the Stage 1 air intake and that comes with a new map as well. Personally I think its running fine for now though but I do think its probably in my interest to get it tuned at some point as I worry about AFR and long term damage. Hopefully they'll have the 23 ECU's broken soon. Thanks for the comment and question! Take care!

  • @KerryAnderson-o3r
    @KerryAnderson-o3r Рік тому +1

    I am going to buy a pursuit next year (2024) and will go through the same process but with what you have done, does it need to be retuned or require a different type of air filter? Great video mate.

    • @StormtrooperRides
      @StormtrooperRides  Рік тому

      Thanks Kerry! I dont think there will be any short term damage done by running it this way for now. I do think it will need a tune/re-map eventually but as of now the ECU for the 23's has not yet been broken yet and so there are no mail-in services available. I will very likely take the bike for the new air intake and that comes with a new map as well and should help a little. But I want to stress that the bike is running fine and I'm really happy with its sound and performance so far. I waited until after my first service and is now locked in Sport Mode. Time will tell and I'll update you on this channel if I run into any issues. No codes and bike runs fine though bottom line.

  • @christopherdegutis9051

    What is your experience with the paint? I'm researching the bike and unclear if a clearcoat or something similar should be added. Thanks and beautiful Machine

    • @StormtrooperRides
      @StormtrooperRides  Рік тому

      so far, I'd say the clearcoat is "soft" or rather it scratches easily...too easily. Now while I acknowledge that every bike I've ever owned has eventually had scratches from jacket zippers, boot drags, etc.. you just look at this bike wrong and a scratch will appear. Its really something Indian needs to correct in the future. That being said, I think you can manage it by ensuring you keep the paint clean and at the very least apply a protective wax. I intend to take a weekend and do a full paint correction, compound, polish, etc and then apply a ceramic coating. I dont think this will make the bike impervious to scratching but I do think it will strengthen it and should help. time will tell but the bike is beautiful and I will do my best to keep it that way. Thanks for the question and I'll try to cover this in a future video or as part of the review.

    Another great video. Sounds really excellent! I could probably be comfortable with this dB level around town, but even with a helmet I think I'd get a headache on longer highway/ touring rides, especially out of state. I love the stereo on my Indian (I'm not 100%, but am at least 90% certain my V&H pipes on my youtube videos aren't as throaty or raw as yours. My best sound example of the pipes is the Clear Creek Canyon video where I'm deep in 5 mountain Tunnels) but think I've found a good satisfying balance between throaty exhaust and listening to my music.

Thank you for the question and maybe talk with your dealer to see what they say about the removal and warranty?

    Great looking shop but I would add a lift with a Wheeldock chock. Save your back. As for loud, that is a choice you get to make but I noticed you looking around at the street. I don't ride to make noise and don't get impressed with one neighbor I have who can't help needlessly ripping thru first and second gear in our neighborhood. Please be aware when you are tempted to do this. Your loud pipes don't really save lives. Statistics prove it.
