How do you install torque cones?
How Do I Install Torque Cones on my Harley-Davidson Motorcycle?
- Step One: Allow Your Bike To Cool.
- Step Two: Remove the Foot Brake Rod.
- Step Three: Remove the Exhaust Pipe Bolts.
- Step Four: Reveal the Exhaust Pipe Opening.
- Step Five: Insert the Torque Cones.
- Step Six: Return the Pipes and Bolts to Position.
Do torque cones really work?
The torque cones also give an anti-reversionary effect as well as increasing velocity in the exhaust pipe. This is why it has been proven torque cones really do work. The smooth bore of the torque cones do not interrupt flow so are a very real functioning performance part.
What do torque cones do for harley?
EXHAUST GASES IN THE CYLINDER CONTAMINATE THE MIXTURE OF FUEL AND CLEAN AIR AND SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCE ENGINES PERFORMANCE. TORQUE CONES ARE USED TO PREVENT THIS FROM HAPPENING. TORQUE CONES WILL SPEED UP THE EXITING EXHAUST GASSES TO TO CREATE A VENTURI EFFECT WHICH STOPS THEM FROM BEING SUCKED BACK INTO THE ENGINE.
Do torque cones work on drag pipes?
They are more commonly called anti-reversion cones and work best on carbureted bikes such as Evos and Shovels using drag pipes.
What are Thunder torque inserts?
Thunder Torque Inserts are designed to perform well when used on slip-ons with and without baffles, drag pipes, shortys and 2-1 Systems. The Increase in Torque is accomplished by reducing engine pumping losses, increasing exhaust gas velocity and increasing inertial scavenging.
Are drag pipes bad?
Drags are fine if you run WOT all the time. They call em drag pipes cause that is what they are for. A bike running the salt flats might need them. They sure sound cool, but wide open pipes are noted for exhaust reversion which will really kill low end torque.
What do exhaust torque cones do?
Exhaust Torque Cones Improves power by increasing the exhaust gas velocity. Helps to reduce exhaust reversion and sonic pulse. Great for use with unbaffled exhaust or drag pipes to reduce reversion.
What is reversion on a motorcycle?
Reversion is simply the flow of exhaust gasses back into the combustion chamber when the downward movement of the piston creates a vacuum in the cylinder. This occurs, again, as both the exhaust and intake valve are open and the piston is moving back down the cylinder.
Are drag pipes legal on a motorcycle?
To the delight of many citizens (and the regret of many riders), straight pipes are illegal on motorcycles in most states.
What’s the best way to use a torque cone?
Use a “eye-bolt” instead of going to the trouble of welding a washer on. Also some report that just a straight bolt works well. Big City Thunder Monsters. Applies the whole eye-bolt washer concept in an anti-reversion baffle and works great. Been there, tried it all, no comparison. BCTM is the answer to the Drag Pipe Blues.
How big are torque cones on a Harley Davidson?
I always thought that the cones provided more of an anti-reversion effect as opposed to an increase in backpressue per the washers. It would pay to research this more. At the port, you have a raw flame that is 6″-8″ or more. At the port, you have a raw flame that is 6″-8″ or more.
How does low end torque make a car run faster?
The more the low end torque, the faster and more responsive a vehicle will be. For this reason, most people will be eager to know how to increase low end torque in a car. We already know that higher low end torque will increase the responsiveness of a vehicle and make the engine run faster.
Which is better for low end torque petrol or diesel?
Petrol cars produce their highest torque at more than 5,000 rpm while the diesel-run engine achieves it in between 1,500 and 3,000 rpm. It indicates that petrol-run automobiles need to maintain over 5k rev to give its best performance while diesel car will run smoothly at much lower rpm. A car performs better at better low-end torque.
Can you run a torque cone without baffles?
As far as i know, torque cones do not create back pressure so the short answer to your question would be NO. You can run it without baffles but you will sacrifice power/performance. incorrectly. With that said, I will tell you what I
What are torque cones and what do they do?
“torque cones” do not add any significant amount of back pressure. Actually they are anti-reversion cones. As stated, the primary purpose is to stem the flow of exhaust gasses in the wrong direction. As the exhaust gasses leave the engine and travel down the pipe, at some point, some of the exhaust gasses reverse direction. When the gasses do that,

Can you use torque cones on a drag pipe?
Big City Thunder Monsters. Applies the whole eye-bolt washer concept in an anti-reversion baffle and works great. Been there, tried it all, no comparison. BCTM is the answer to the Drag Pipe Blues. Torque Cones = snake oil ! Stepped headers/eye bolt washer/BCTM is the way to go .
