Default 60 degrees in Calgary yesterday.......still waiting for my blackline!!!!!!

I had to suffer through yesterday watching bikes drive by!! I was suppose to have my new Blackline a couple weeks ago, but the parts took longer to get in than expected. I can see it now.......the bike will be delivered in the middle of a snow storm. Here's what I'm having done:

- 103" upgrade with 10.5-1 pistons, SE 255 cams
- lowering bolt (I may upgrade to progressive 422s if the ride sucks)
- grips and pegs
- Bassani Road Rage Short
- LED Headlight
- Digital Speedo
- SE high flow intake
- springer seat

Future mods:
- handlebars (the apes are really growing on me)
- side license plate mount
- maybe 200 on the back (The skinny tire is growing on me)
- LED lights (I'd like to relocate the rear lights like xjayx)
- saddle bag

I can't wait!!!!!!

Calgary Harley is doing the work. They threw in the 103 upgrade on top of giving me a great deal on a 2011.

I feel your pain. My bike is being serviced and is in storage at the dealership. I've missed about a dozen nice riding days already. Damn.

I'm not sure the lowering bolts are gonna do anything for ya' since the Blackline comes with the low suspension from the factory.
Other than that, sounds like you're gonna have a fine new steed.

Damn. We're still in the mid 30's. I'm itching REAL bad to get out. It's been a real mellow winter so far. Had the bike out last week when it was almost 40*. But i'll wait to get some good seat time in when the roads are free of sand/salt and their is no fear of icy conditions.
