F I N A L L Y got my dyno tune. Worth every penny. Expected bigger numbers (don't we always?) but the drivability/response improvements are worth all the trouble.

-LeatherPros bags on!
-Bung King crash bar on!

Need to do my risers and my new air cleaner assy

Mirrors have been a problem with me and the low bars I like so much, so in an effort to actually see behind me I mocked up an old beat up bar end mirror I had in a box and problem fixed... I found a set of bar ends I liked after wading through hundreds of mirrors on Google.
I ordered a set of Halcyon 835, 3 inch bar end mirrors, from Revival Cycle. I liked these because they rotate out of the way for tight parking, old school looks, stainless steel construction, fit 1 inch bars, and there made in England. The price was better than expected, cheaper than bar ends from Joker Machine. I will post photos when they get installed.

The common saying is that anything with the HD logo on it triples the price. Some items that's true but other items HD will have a good price. So it all depends. As for the LED light, the non-HD one I bought causes the bike to think there's an electrical error sometimes when I hit the Bright switch. I'm guessing the more expensive HD light doesn't do that.

Only ~250 miles running mine, but cycling hi/low and running on hi during daylight & no errors so far...we'll see how she goes, but still worth the cost savings (IMO).

Most don't seem to be reporting any issues with these knock off LED headlights. My knock off does set off the electrical diagnostic light if I switch it to low beam but it's not throwing any DTC's. Leave it on high beam, the CANbus is happy so I just keep it on 'can ya see me now' mode. I could add load to the low beam circuit so the bike sees at least 1.4a but I'd rather not cut in to the wiring so I just ignore the red diagnostic when I do need to use low beam.

It's a nice light and so much brighter than the stock headlight, that red diagnostic is my 'low beam' indicator I will look in to upgrading to a better LED but for now, the added lighting is worth that little annoyance...

Good find. I like Revival. I've bought a bunch of stuff from them.

No doubt! From around $49 shipped from eBay, to around $424 shipped (w/6% Michigan sales tax) from the H-D site for what appears to be the exact same thing...I would say so! No doubt, they are both made in China. Iceman, thanks again for the idea.
