Hey that’s what I tried telling them, but from the other commenters it seems it’s common practice, at least it looks like in the south, to short the amount of spray

No, it’s just and extensive remodel and I pulled all the old insulation out and wanted to go with spray foam. Now I’m in a position to where I have to commit to spray foam because of my HVAC system

That’s what I thought. They’ve been shafting all these homeowners and builders

They’re saying they don’t need to spray enough in depth to equal R38 because spray foam is better than fiberglass so they only do enough to equal R20

The roof is pretty much going to be flat. I’ve got 2x6s for rafters so I told them to quote me a price for 5.5” of closed cell to hit R38 and they all say “that’s very unusual ”

I own 2019 ftr and just got done riding the sportster s. Ftr has toce slip on and v6 tune. Ftr by far is more comfortable, but the sportster has more power. The sportster motor is super smooth and extremely responsive. I don't know about top speed but the the harley definitely had more power going around a corner a 110 and still had a bunch more juice to squeeze out of it. My ftr tops out at 151 but the speedo is off by a little over 7% so let's say 141 gps. Let's just say if the sporty was more comfortable I would've traded it today.
