Stage 1 kit with SERT or Chrome Forks???
I have a real dilemma! I know I will get different responses, but I would like to hear them!
I have a 2010 FLSTC Heritage and I am running Freedom Performance True Duals without a stage 1 kit. The bike runs real nice. Now I have enough money to either buy a stage 1 kit with a HD-SERT or to get chrome front fork sliders. Which one should I do??? I love to go fast and mess around racing with my fellow riders, but also feel the need to clean up the front end of my bike. Can you really feel the difference in the tuner kit, and is it worth the money? Or is there not much difference where the money would be better spent on the chrome sliders? I am really torn!!!
What do you all think??

If you're really worrying about how the bike looks, you'll probably get more for the money with the chrome front end kit. If you want your bike to run better, I'd go with the SERT. I have the 2010 also without the chrome forks, so you can see how it looks with the work I've done, but I have done the Stage 1 with SERT.

Beautiful bikes guys!!! Do you see why I am torn? I want both, but for now I would take the performance if it is noticeably better? I guess that is my question when it comes down to it! Is adding the stage 1 noticeably better? If it is just a subtle difference then I'll go with the chrome lowers.

id say when i did stage one, i went from stock, to pipes, intake, and SERT. There was quite a noticeable difference in acceleration, so its definitely worth the money. I also started getting 55mpg afterwards. So it eventually pays for itself if you can stay off the throttle to hear the pipes roar. I want chrome forks for mine, but just dumped 2 grand into hard bags and mounts.

Talking performance and TD's in the same sentence with a stock motor does not make sense. I'd still do stage 1 AND polish the forks. Cheap, easy and great results.

I've had both, and I have to say the best "show" mod I've ever done is the forks. As for the "go", stage one wakes it up a lot, but why not get the forks then save up for some cams? Either way, you'll be happy, and either way, you'll end up getting both, and then some. The spending never stops...

You are so right about the spending! I think my wish list is at least a couple legal pages long! Thanks for the opinion! Have a Happy New Year!
