Maybe not the place but I just have to say I love my bike and the current setup, it is such an creditable joy to ride. You can see my setup in my signature, and I have stated a couple for times about my dyno-tune experience. The highly recommended dyno-guy did such a fantastic job, the bike runs like glass, quite from the perspective that a bad tune it just sounded noisy and seemed to struggle, a good tune it is quieter and doesn't seen to struggle (I really don't know how to explain it). I run Amsoil 60 in all 3 holes (engine only between Apr and Nov then 20-50), so the mechanical noise is nearly a whisper.

I love my bike!

Got rid of the hubcap, I hated that thing. You will need a spacer if you yank it. I have no idea what size since I had the indy do it while he had the wheel off. Never understood the hubcap thng.
Still waitin on Ginz sissy bar, post pics when that gets in. Looks like after Biketoberfest, oh well.

Swapped out the stock rubber shift peg with one from Joker Machine. No more black rubber marks on my boots

Ordered the PowerPack from Fuel-Moto yesterday, can't wait for it to arrive!

After much research, reading reviews, forum discussions, watching Youtube videos, etc. I decided to go with:

Air Cleaner: Arlen Ness Big Sucker - This was a toss-up with the S&S Stealth but went with the Big Sucker since I want to keep the stock Harley cover and it was a little cheaper.

Exhaust: Vance & Hines Big Shots Staggered - This was also a toss-up, I was dead set on getting the V&H Short Shots. I want loud but also deep sounding. From the clips I've heard, the Short Shots are a little more raspy and a little higher pitched. The Big Shots have a nice, deep rumble. I also think they look slightly better too.

Tuner: Vance & Hines FP3 - I don't plan on modifying the engine any further than it is now. I also like the ease of use with the FP3 and it's gotten many great reviews.

Will post pics. after installed.

I was wondering if battery posts in your *** was a new item on the man card I wasn't privy to but figured I better keep playing ignorant if I was ever called on it.
