My wife rode a 2013 Softail Deluxe last evening - goodbye to the sporty and welcome to a new ride. We'll pick it up on Friday - so I'll get a couple of pics.

Bike is Birch White / Sunglow Red, the upgraded wheels, Vance and Hines true duals fishtail exhaust, SE Breather, SE Race Tuner, and was Dyno tuned. She'll add a Windshield, Engine Guards, & Bags (thinking BB Reproduction bags). I already ordered Lyndall pads to hold down the brake dust on the Chrome.....

We'll add Security, as the bike did not come with ABS / Security. Sweet looking ride she has there.

She is thrilled and I am glad to see her move up to a 103.

I'm sure she'll love it. My first Harley was a Sporty. (Suzuki before that). Never had a Deluxe but had a Heritage for a short while. Yay for her!!

The Deluxe is my future wife. I hope the Deuce never finds out about her...

Hello and welcome from the dark side of HD, we had an '06 Sporty and came over to the Softail side with a '12 Heritage.

The next MOD to do is install some Shotgun Shocks air suspension system. THE best MOD you can do to any Softail.

Again welcome.
