Yuasa GYZ batteries
LAUNCHED at the V-Twin Expo earlier this year, Yuasa
claims that its new GYZ line of batteries have the
highest CCA of any motorcycle battery (500 CCA on
GYZ32HL), and that they offer more amp hours for
more accessories.
The new batteries have large heavy-duty flush
terminals constructed to allow front and top
connections and fit requirements with built-in brass
nuts for up to 50 percent better conductivity than
stainless steel.
Internally the GYZ range has absorbed glass mat
(AGM) separators to absorb electrolyte, making the
batteries non-spill, while the taller plates provide extra
surface area for more power. The through-partition
construction used creates a shorter current path with
less resistance than traditional over the partition
construction, and this results in more cranking power.
A leak-proof valve relieves excess pressure as a safety
flame-arrestor and the heat bonded cover eliminates
leaks and corrosion.

Steel fenders from Klock Werks
KLOCK Werks has one-piece steel front fenders in
production for use with 23in and 26in front
wheels on bikes with raked necks and trees.
The company’s 6-1 /2in wide fenders are
stamped from 14-gauge US steel and
e-coated to prevent rust and
corrosion. Five different styles of the
fender for use on ‘83-‘13 FLHT, FLHX,
FLHR, FLTR models are
available, and installation
requires use of Klock
Werks’ Front Fender
Mounting Blocks,
which are sold
separately.
For owners of 2014
FLH models Klock
Werks is offering its steel front fenders in complete fit
kits. Once the fender style and wheel size is confirmed,
a kit is put together that includes a pre-drilled Klock
Werks steel front fender, billet aluminum chrome
mounting blocks, and all necessary mounting
hardware to make it a bolt-on application. There is a
choice of eight Tire Hugger Series styles to choose
from, one Benchmark Series style, and 23in and 26in
wheel versions.
For the rear of the bike Klock Werks also has 14gauge steel fenders available with its The One option.
The One is a one-piece combination that eliminates
the need for a separate rear fender and filler panel
pieces, with spacing designed to line up with ‘09
onward H-D rear top strut covers, and either extended
bags, aftermarket bag extensions or stock bags.
Manufactured using the same deep draw stamping
technology as the rest of the
Klock Werks sheet metal line,
the integrated filler panels are
TIG welded to the fender, and it
accepts all stock detachable
mounting hardware and
brackets and comes pre-drilled
with mounting holes.
The One is available for ’09
onward FLHT, FLHX, FLHR, FLTR
models.

Recon and Syndicate wheels
PERFORMANCE Machine has extended its
premium Contour Collection wheel line
with the introduction of two new
designs, Recon and Syndicate.
The inspiration behind the Recon wheel
is the idea that ‘less is more’, and to this
end Performance Machine has removed
as much material as possible from the
wheel through the use of beveling and
speed dots around the rim, to
create a lightweight option
“We were inspired by a
less-is-more viewpoint for
the new Recon wheel less aluminum and more
Syndicate
of nothing. Lightweight
and stealth-like graceful
beauty, this wheel's unique
power is in the details. Stop

reading this right
now and do a little
Recon
recon with your
eyes on the
wheel. Discover
the captivating
contour profile
shapes with
perfect beveling and
the army of speed-dots
surrounding the rim”, the company
says.
Performance Machine describes
its Syndicate wheel as being a
syndicate of the best design
elements from its best-selling
wheels. It features a five-spoke
design with exaggerated contour
lines that transition smoothly onto
the rim with machined detail from hub to
edge of rim and sunlight-catching accent
grooves on the very edge of the rim.
Both designs are available in chrome,
Contrast Cut and Contrast Cut Platinum
finishes for ‘84 to present H-D models, and
join the existing Revel and Virtue wheels in
the Contour Collection. Wheels in the
Contour Collection start with a reengineering of the forged blank by adding
material from the hub to the rim lip area,
which provides the means for a deeper
machine cut.
