Show off your Mods

[Pirate]

ATCguy,

Guess you're not planning a change from the Goldwing to a side-by-side any time soon.

We set up the table in the garage and set up the printer and two PCs, well, one PC one Mac.

Curious, are you using the DirecTV Genie wireless devices to get the other TV's on the system?

Thanks,

Pirate

Then put things away when its time to load the RZR and move on!

Hello everyone thought I would share some of my mods- I have not owned my 2016 V3305 for about 5 weeks now and have done a few things to it.

- leds for steps
- leds for all the leveling jack.
- leds on the steps for at night
- leds behind TV
- Added two strips of leds into the basement
- remodeled the basement to get more storage
- moved vacuum, and cut off about 18 inches of hose,
- leds in the pantry
- put a hook in the garage to hold one of the laters
- added a 110 plug in the loft bed for kids to charge there junk !
- Added extra led brake lights and turn lights,
- moved entry light and awing light to a switch panel as you walk in the door, no more opening glass door in the dark to find a light.
-installed correct track to get the 2 inch lift on trailer so it would ride closer to level, still not perfect
- put 17.5 rims with 235-75/r17.5 rims with a 6,000 pound per tire load and give me 1/2 inch lift to go with correct track.

a few pic of the leds, might be a little much but it looks great at night

to do list still
- sat TV
-water tank accumulator
- solar

sure I will come up with more

Well, may be changing the bike... but no, no side-bys or 3-wheelers for me. Nothing against them... but when the time comes that I can't lean into the curves anymore, then it'll be time for me to hang up the helmets for good.

As for the TVs... yes, one main genie and 3 wireless mini-genies.

There is always a sidecar, they are fun to fly, the side car that is not the bike. I used to ride with an old flat track racer and I swear the sidecar tire was off the road more than it it was on. Cheeky bugger would put some unsuspecting soul in the side car and take them for a flight.

It's not leaning into the curves that's the problem, it's when you lean too far and have to pick the bike up.

I've been thinking about leds for the pantry also for my 3305. Where did you pick up power from? 12v or 120v?

I want one of these...

Hello- it was super simple, under the sink is the C02 detector, it supplies 12v. Pulled out the draws and followed the wires for the plug that is on the counter top. cut a new hole for a switch and done, spent maybe 45 min to do the 3 shelves, I did put a 3amp fuse inline to protect everything.

Sounds like a plan. Thanks

Does it lock in place?

Last year, I mounted some wood framing to the cheesy metal brace to shore up the TV and sound bar, still a pain to get down... Being on an articulating arm would be much more convenient.

Here are the pics with the TV pulled out and after the sound bar was installed.

[calewjohnson]

Moto4Play,

Thanks for the pics, is that the sound bar at the top behind the TV? Is it muffled if the TV is in place and on?

Yes, it is at the top behind it. No, it is not muffled. There was also enough room behind our coach to put the sub. I added a power strip to the floor plug and sled the sub between the wall and the recliners.

There is 1 3/4" between the TV and the ceiling. Tilting the TV forward about an 1" or so, gives me close to 2" the actual speaker is 2". We can sit on the coach and see the display on the sound bar and hear it clearly.

Tilting the TV also put some of the weight of the TV on the shelf making it harder to pull the TV out. You have to lift slightly to pull it out. I do not see a need to strap it at this point but a I may put a piece of commercial grade velcro on the corner that touches the wall. This would hold it to the wall. Even if it swings out there really is nothing that would hit it.

The Sound bar I bought is Samsung HW-J550. They are discontinuing this unit. You can still get it in most stores or online. The dimensions were perfect for the bar and the sub.

It is the current Morgan trike. It is powered by an S&S motor.

My Engineer Nerdness was pretty stoked about how these mounts came out. Not really a good way to mount them crossways underneath, and wanted tucked up out of sight. They are right there close to the sewer outlet and ready to go. Only concern would be a blowout, but I imagine it would get more than just the tubes.

I really like how that turned out, I might need to move the one I have in the back (installed by factory) to that location,

Tom,

Good for you. I used to just live for a good corner on the Electra Glide...but getting hit from behind and all the recovery and impairments...and the side-by-side allows me to have a lot of fun...and hopefully not get hurt again!!

Ride them corners. I think back of some of the fabulous rides I lead....and ooohhh...to have had a GoPro camera back then!!!!

I installed a fireplace in the back side of the bar. It had almost the exact same curvature as the bar. Also put a led strip above the bar. Switched out for all Leds inside and out. Starting on my 3 season room doors this week. French storm doors from home depot. Should come out pretty slick.
