i'm extremely jealous of your bike man. haha. i was worried when i bought my limited that i was going to be stuck with an 'old man' bike. but you have shown me that's not the case!

also, what seat is that? i've been looking for a good solo seat.

LMAO,,,The Limited is the best of both worlds with all the bells and whistles's.Le Pera bare-bones is the really low profile seat good for 50 miles before things start hurting.
The other solo seat is a Mustang seat, all day comfort with backrest and the option of a removable passenger seat.

Low speed maneuvering took a little getting used to, but otherwise happy. Like any bars with a bend, internal wiring was a PITA. This was first set I ever did so next time should be easier. I also went with the Screamin Eagle TBW to make running its wires a little easier. I bought them from a local shop M&M Leather. Great place.
just bought the exact same setup.... how tight is that brake and clutch cable? did it reduce your turn radius any? im fine with the wiring, but not positive on how to bleed the abs or clutch, so im trying to avoid that if i can.

I don't think it reduced my turning radius at all. I cut the zip ties for the clutch/brake cables under the fairing and just re-routed things a little with them. No need to bleed abs or clutch. I've put on about 500 miles since I put the bars on and no issues. Bars still go to full lock both sides.
