R.I.P. BROTHER
Thanks Octobre! Although I prefer to call it "Narrow Assed" dig the styling and flow over the fatassed version.
When you sit mine next to a fatassed bike? Most folks suddenly see how the classic lines and styling cues get fuddled up in the extra 2-3 inches of fender on the 06+ versions with the 200MM tire.
The key with the narrow assed FXST bikes is to fit the fattest tire possible on the bike using that factory fender and lower em' a bit. You cant leave the narrow assed bikes at stock height or they look weird.

I'd be careful about how loud you go with pipes for right now. Cops are beginning to crack down on aftermarket pipes all over the Country. If it were me, I'd sit back for a few months and see how your local boys are going to act before I spent over a grand on pipes and stage 1.

1. If it bothers you that I asked, don't open the thread.
2. If you don't like loud pipe just for the sake of loud pipes, don't put them on YOUR bike.
3. If I wan't MY Harley to sound the way I believe MY Harley should sound, don't worry about it!
4. Ask you wife if I need to compensate.

BTW Crack pipes always work for me, neighbors say they can hear me coming waaaay before I ever get home.

So regardless of a 4 page thread dedicated to their question(s) being 3 slots down the board, they make another.
