I bought a Custom Dynamics Pro Beam tail light for my Heritage Classic. It’s supposed to be here tomorrow.

Received my Throttle Boss to replace the Cramp Buster (which I had to continuously re-adjust) and a nice Leather and Chrome windshield bag that will allow me to "un-stuff" my jacket pockets. Sometimes small things make the ride more comfortable.

I tried that too and it might be fine 'out on the road' for longer trips, but for 'around town',
it really annoyed me & got in the way, so I removed it. Just my experience....

good luck,

My brother has one of those things, I opted for this one, and it's perfect for the long haul, but @WKNDS is right, round town I don't use it.

Yea I can get a pic, I didn't do the install, the bike was in the shop during winter storage, and had my Indy do it. I wanted the
chrome one but they sent me black. But it blends in well, and if you're not looking for it you wouldn't notice. I love it. Perfect.

I don't ride around in town much......I do live in a small town in the Black Hills so most of my riding is "on the road". The Cramp Buster caused a bit of a hassle at stop lights but this Throttle boss is much smaller and when adjusted properly doesn't cause any problem.

Tore-down the top end, increasing displacement to 1584 cc (96 Cubic Inch) big bore by AMS MotoMachine & Supply (Cleburne, TX). Great experience, spectacular customer service, and provided great instructions at a very affordable price. Not expecting much just a nice bump in HP and Torque, also installing a CV Performance Tuner Kit. Based on CV Performances recommendations, jetting 150 main and 48 pilot. Not an expert on jetting however, I trust the experts at CV Performance have done the homework and these setting will provide adequate flow for the new displacement. .

If you ever put her on a Dyno and check the HP let me/us know. Thinking of going 96 or possibly 98. Thanks.
