Did a bunch of upgrades to my 2017 CVO Limited.
  • Fuelmoto 128 engine build including 2020 HD 8-lobe oil pump, Woods WM8-408 cam, Power Vision tuner, FM Custom Ventilator AC and SDR clutch upgrade
  • Upgrade the original BOOM GT radio to the new BOOM GTS radio
  • Upgrade XM antenna
  • Swap the PTT and Cruise buttons with Digitech flash
  • Enabled passing lights to function with Hi-beams thru Digitech flash
  • Added Aux input to BOOM GTS (Digitech flash required)
  • Replaced Daymaker LED headlight with HD Adaptive LED Headlight
  • Replaced brake pedal lever with Softbrake lever and smaller Airflow brake pedal pad
  • Added Custom Dynamic LED turn signals, CD brake flasher modules and CD fairing trim with turn signals
  • Covered all the upgrades with a 5 year Eagle Guardian ESP that provides coverage for all these upgrades including the engine upgrades

Bought the FLFBS couple months back, put that 1K on it quickly and sent it in for the service. While it was there had a stage 1 done, new full exhaust, new intake, tuner, and a dyno. Also had a set of Carlini 12" X 1.50 Menace apes and boob risers installed.
Wish i'd done it myself...you know what they say, want a professional job done, do it your self.

Anyways, so here sat money tight after my lil expenditures. I used my accumaleted HD reward points and threw some jewelry on. The scoot paint scheme what they call Rawhide(dark brown at night, brown metalflake in the sun).
Minimum I can do at this point so here we go: gas cap been rattling since I bought it and no recall give to me yet, replaced both caps with the dominion black caps, removed both tank badges, got rid of the gawdy stock mirrors andd replaced with the black low profile mirrors(grips and switch housings still black). Slowly personalizing it. The one thin really bothers me, I grew up in the shipyard with access to a full blown machine shop. I want to pull that rear fender, chop and lower it.
Anyways, couple more thingss, I'll post pics.
