I added an Arlen Ness Velocity 65 air cleaner, Freedom Performance Radical Radius exhaust, and the Vance and Hines Fuelpack 3 over the weekend. My initial thoughts are the air cleaner is slightly in the way, but I think that may be the result of how far forward the backrest has me sitting. The exhaust is everything I wanted, looks and sound, but may require a baffle before my wife will join me. Also, not a lot of information on the Freedom Performance available - I need to track down a passenger peg relocation kit and Freedom Performance is not an option in the V&H Fuelpack 3. I spent most of Sunday playing with the autotune feature, but with a stock map download using a Bassani exhaust that I thought was close the bike ran great with only minor decel pop.

Contrary to all expectations, the postman was at the door with the Kodlin 3-1 mini indicators this afternoon.


I got to work immediately and they were assembled within an hour of work ...

It is an Australian company called Chopz, this is the main site but I bought mine through a dealer off eBay. http://www.chopz.com.au/

I got Option 5 for the Fatboy. There are a few different choices including a chrome version and with and without lights etc. there are plug and play wire harnesses etc.

This Aussie seller site shows a few of the options. https://www.hotbike.com.au/?s=Chopz They do ones for the breakout too. I had to add a reflector to mine to keep the police happy, otherwise I would be getting stopped all the time running it standard here.

Wheel and tires are the stock size, I actually pulled the stock tires off the stock wheels and had them installed on the new wheels.

Because I’m 6.4 tall I’ve to change the handlebars for sitting straighter and more relaxed. An 14 inch ape should be the choice maybe from Santee. Only change of risers isn’t enough and a T-Bar or similar... it’s not the look for this cruiser I think. Any ideas about that? And: Changing bars and wiring at the dealer for warranty means in Germany without bars 1200-1600 €! I’m wondering how many did this here at home especially because of ABS and the other stuff. Thanks for sharing some opinions.
