Since the black pearl paint is discontinued for 2010, I have a collectors edition........Plus mine is set up perfectly for all day riding comfort now and I don't want to start all over again.....The 96 motor is plenty big for me and since my "extension" is on the plus side, I don't need to have a big motor to make up for any short comings......Just kidding (a little)...

Way, way TMI. But thanks for sharing just the same.

I had a 103" 07. When I got the 09, I decided to NOT do it again. Long story short, downshifting 1 gear has about the same real world power increase on the 09 (with new gearing) that my 07 103" had (without downshifting)

I decided I could learn to drop a gear when needed, and save $2000.00

I MAY do it to the 09 one day, but only after everything else I want has been done.

On the stock seat "my ass hurts comment" (not in those words)
My ass hurt like hell once I hit 100 miles when the bike was new.....at around 2000 miles I put a set of progressive shocks on and my ass never hurt again.
I don't know if it was the shocks, or the seat broke in, or my ass broke in, or a combo of all 3. So dont give up on the stock seat yet....it may need to break in.
