Default My new to me 2018 Low Rider

I call her LoRi, lol
2.3k miles, will probably add forwards, what’s the best slip-on exhaust? I had Vance and Hines big radius and V&H tuner on my 14 LR.

Wow, low miles & nice looking bike.
I have forward controls on mine and Screamin' Eagle Steet Cannon's (without muffler shields). They are a little louder and deeper sound than stock, but not super loud. I also wanted to keep the stock look. I'm happy with them. Here is a pic of mine.

I love the "standard" Low Rider" it's the classic Harley with its chrome, handlebar and headlight cap...
I would like a Club Style based on this...

My Low Rider I traded for the ST just to keep things relevant.

That chrome Thunderheader really pops against the black motor...same with the lower fork legs against the wheels. This is chrome and black done right.

I'm going to check out a low mileage(~6K miles) 2018 low rider at the dealer this weekend.
Anything on the 2018s that I need to pay particular attention to?
I noticed that the 2019+ low riders come with the narrow profile primary cover. Is that a big deal? I'm 5'9" with 30" inseam so don't think I'll need the added clearance but not sure?
Amy other tips y'all can give me when I check this thing out at the dealer?
Thanks

Make sure it's got the updated oil pump.

Look towards the rear of the bike at the top of the inner primary case to insure it has the primary vent installed. If the bike was built after May 2018 it came from the factory with it installed. If not there was a Tech Bulletin for the dealers to install it.

I had an FXLR built at the end of May 2018 and it came installed from the factory.

um unless there's service records I don't think they'd let me open the cam chest and inspect the oil pump.
But I hear you on the updated oil pump and this might be the first mod if I end up getting this bike
