Put on ISO grips with end weights.

Removed my HD Digital Gear Indicator since the Powervision has the capability to show gears. Flash my custom tune to the ECM using the Powervision with Autotune from DK Customs. Runs pretty smooth. Probably need to use AutoTune to learn my riding style and fine tune the ECM. Next step is to install the PV on the bike so I can use the gauge features and autotune while I am riding. Using gauges for RPM, gear, battery voltage, and engine temperature....pretty neat stuff.

Just a side note. The PV initially seemed like a big investment but think about it this way....my HD Digital Gear Indicator was about $250, half the cost of the PV....so the PV having flash tuning capabilities AND the ability to have multiple gauges (analog or digital) ncluding a gear indicator is well worth the $$. It's like getting a multi-function speedo gauge and more.

Was planning on a tank lift/wire-tuck but figured I didn't want to lose gas capacity. I finally sat down and did a wire tuck only. Turned out WAY better than I thought should have done this ages ago!

First fitting of my cheap ebay fairing. I put it on only using the two two mounting points and ignoring the central headlight mount as leaving that uncovered would just see it filling with water? It'll vibrate about like that though and really needs some bracing brackets onto the forks or triples somehow? I like the look though and it almost looks oem in the matching flat black!

How did you guys mount yours?

Re-installed 3" Cobra slip-ons to replace the Screaming Eagle 50-state legal slip-ons that I originally bought to replace the Cobras!

Originally found the Cobras to be too loud. But, I've since started using ear plugs regularly and thought I'd try the Cobras again in anticipation of doing a complete stage 1. I'm liking them better 2nd time around.

I changed the oil in our 2 Sportsters this eve. First time I've ever changed the oil on a vehicle in my life. Gotta love this forum and YouTube.

Decided I was done hating on the stock black 48 graphics, went with a jeweled bare metal look instead. Turned my stock pegs into some brass beauties with 20MM rounds, made .50BMG shifter pegs, added stash tube behind license plate.
