Welcome to the "Custom Club" and ya picked a winner there. Like the color combination, but I still think black is best.

Hmmm, a triple in the same garage as a Hog, hope they don't get together and have offspring.
Gonna make for some strange looking mini bikes.
Horrors!!! [sm=escape.gif]I never thought of that, they could produce a scooter!! I'll issue condoms immediately. Question is which gender is which??[sm=confused06.gif]

Also colour is two-tone black cherry pearl/pewter pearl. Not bad, it was on the shop floor so I grabbed it. Had to wait 4 months to get my last 'bike in the colour I wanted.

Worse than that, can you imagine the noise two 700+lb bikes would make banging the head board on the back wall of the garage!!!!!
That kind of thing would scare the hell out of neighborswith all that banging.
Best bet is that they don't speak the same language, English vs. American.
If your luckythey will never get the communication thing down so it won't become a problem.

Then again, I'm sure that somewhere in the world somebody is looking to give acute little Vespa ahome.

Guys, I'm gettin' really antsy. My pipes should be in any time now. I've had them order forever, but things got all screwed up so they were ordered again. This was last week, so I'm thinkin' it should be next week when they come in since they didn't come in this week. I also got my Thundermax on order. It should be here next week as well. So I'm hopin' that within the next two weeks, I'll finally be able to get rid of those stock pipes and my bike will actually sound like a Harley instead of a sewing machine. After I get that all taken care of, I'll soon be putting the bike back in the shop to have the front end powdercoated. It's a good thing I have a Sportster to ride while the Softail is down so I don't miss any ridin' time.

I've been patient. I ordered the pipes when I bought my bike. That was over a month ago. I ordered a set of Martin Bros "Shock Waves" through Drag Specialties and they were being shown as backordered. The dealer called them and asked when they would be released, and Drag Specialties said Martin Bros told them not to sell the pipes anymore. So the dealer called up Martin Bros and ordered from them. I wasn't in a huge hurry before because the SERT hasn't been released yet so I couldn't put the pipes on anyway. But now that I went with the Thundermax w/AutoTune, I'm gettin' anxious. Now my stuff just needs to come in. I already have the Wimmer air cleaner, but of course it's not installed yet. I keep picturing in my head what the bikes gonna look like, and that makes me even more excited for everything. I know, I know. Patience is a virtue, and all good things come to those who wait. Well I don't care about all good things. I just a few good things; I want my parts.

I'll be more than happy to let you guys know how it works out. I called Zippers and they said it would work on the new bikes. The only problem is, and it kinda sucks, the low fuel light and the "miles to empty" features don't work. They are, however, working on a fix for that and it will just need to be downloaded to the T-max when the fix is released. I can deal without those features for a little while, but I'll be pretty upset if I have to go without them for a long time. I'm gonna have to keep a close eye on the gas guage and my trip meter since there's no reserve.

L2R I know how you feel. I had my parts in my garage and was waiting for my 1k service to install them. My dealer wanted too much for the install so I did it myself. I ended up getting my 1k service done at 800 miles because I just couldn't wait. The day after the service I got home from work and installed all the goodies!!! I am so glad I don't have the sewing machine anymore!
