Default First few things done



Dk+2 riser extensions, led headlight, Harley pegs, passenger pegs, highway pegs, grips, detachable sissybar not in the picture.
up next is 2-up seat and exhaust + tuner, maybe that HD 1/4 fairing.

Nice work
I like the Defiance Range and have the same myself.
I went for V&H Slip Ons to keep the headers, look cool and sound loads better than stock.
Although stock is good for a Harley System.

My old softail night train exhaust sounded so so good. Deep rumble, but honestly it got too loud on longer trips. 100+ miles and my ears were tired, even with ear plugs in.

I've been enjoying the relative quiet, but I know myself.

I'll either do TBR or same as Mattf748 and go with V&H slip ons. I kinda like the look of the stock exhaust.

What fuel tuner are you guys running anyways?


Only thing I was upset about was I paid Harley to have those highway mounts powdered black. They obviously didn't do it. But they had my scooter for a week already fixing a leaky pushrod. So I didn't care enough to have em fix it, just wanted my ride back.

Lookin' good I like that you used the silver knock off LED headlight instead of the black; the black makes that entire area look like a blob of nothing; the silver looks nice and gives the front shape.

And as for a tuner? There is only one that need apply

LOL. Copy.

I've had luck with PC3 and V&H fuelpack, but that's been a few years now, so I assumed there must be something better now.

Running an V&H FP3, works very well, minutes to map the bike and no messing around.
Also raised the rev limiter to 6200 rpm this bike flies now....

Can't go wrong with Supertrapp, they can be tuned for both performance and volume! Same goes for the new Fuel Moto exhausts which can be paired with a Power Vision for a discount!

Just saw that. Not a bad deal, 995 for a 2-1 system with a tuner. that'd be about the same as slip ons with a tuner

Yeah, if I didn't already have the Supermeg I would have done the Fuelmoto exhaust. Note though that based on Mchad's posts, the fuelmoto exhaust will not fit with certain saddlebags (he was using the Leatherpro's)
