[QUOTE=dumbluckjosh;20351315]Bassani road rage III, saddlemen seat, lay down plate holder.

risers, bars, gauge relocation are next on the list.

Love the saddle. Could you please share how it positions you over stock solo saddle? I’m torn on that one or the pro version. I actually like the stock saddle, but would like the 2 up option.

If you’re going to gauge relocate in the fairing, 5.5” risers are the limit to still see them comfortably. Definitely better than stock location to keep eyes on the road.

Finally finished up painting the low profile dash cover and got it installed. Nothing like chopping up a brand new Harley under warranty. Lol!

Still on the fence about going all in with the killer customs or dark parts bobbster rear fender and saddle. Hmmm?

I feel more secure in the new seat, the higher back rest and the firmness of the seat. The stock seat was too squishy for me.

I was thinking about the pro version as well. But went with the step up. You won’t be disappointed either way. If you can find someone local or a dealer who has a used bike with the seat ask if you can try it out.

Im going with 8.5” risers with mid bend thrasin bars. Relocating gauges to the bars.

Thanks for seat info dumbluckjosh and good idea. Gonna check out local HD inventory now to look for something with those seats to test.

Brought my new to me 2019 Heritage Classic home last night around 11:00 pm. Took it for my first ride today. I really like the maneuverability. The 107 has plenty of power. Coming from a Wing the exhaust is plenty loud! Helibars and backrest are on order. I had an Amazon clone X-Ceen windshield extension lying around so I put it on to see if it helped with the buffeting I'd been reading about. No buffering, at least up to 75. In one direction I felt wind coming up around the tank, but going back home I didn't. I'll wait on the fangs. It feels a lot lighter than I know it is. I guess that is because of the low seat. I need front and rear crash bars and a medium height sissy bar with pad. I will probably put on a Russell seat, but that will wait until after the bars and backrest are on.

Lol I pretty much did the same today. I went out pulled up the cover to check on my bike, but I grabbed a voltmeter to check the battery status since he's been sitting for a week because of the stupid snow storms.
