I got mine end of Feb. I just rolled over 500 miles, the other day. Id say it doesnt hurt to add stuff. I have V&H Big Radius 2-2, V&H intake, and FP3.

I have, but not installed yet, Biltwell Frisco bars. Still figuring out what lines I need, but soon they will go on.

I want to definitely get some loud exhaust and air filter kit for this thing, I think I need to also get the computer programmed for it? Should wait until after the 1000 mile break in? Is the screaming eagle stuff the dealer sells the best option(It's pricey), or should I be looking at other stuff(I want loud but not crazy loud, I rented a bike with screaming eagle exhaust it was good to me). I'm new to bikes, I'm from cars/trucks but I know I want to modify this thing slowly. I'm mechanically inclined so I could install the muffler/air intake.

Also will be getting the passenger seat for my GF, the dealer is putting on the pegs/extra seat/backrest when the parts get in. They threw that in on the bike, pretty much only "deal" I got, haha.

Thanks.
definitely check out DK Customs. Really nice products that definitely change the look and performance of your bike. After I got their air filter for my wife’s bike I knew I had to sell my Arlen ness and get one with the external breather bolts.

Bike
Yeah man I have it all set up how I like it. Love the bike.

Ended up with screaming eagle air intake, cobra speedster rpt full exhaust, and the screaming eagle programmer. Harley did all the work.

Heres a pic.
