Default Thrashin

I got the rest of my Thrashin stuff in today on UPS. Man they make some of the nicest billet jewelry on the market. This stuff is flawless and just beautiful.

Got the adjustable brake lever and my highway pegs.

Just one problem, I ordered the wrong clevis mount on the pegs.

Well that gave me the opportunity to call California and talk to these guys. He answered the phone and I said "time for tacos isn't it!". He cracked ip laughing. You have to watch their YouTube channel to appreciate it.

We talked a little about their company and got to business. I told him how I screwed up and it was no big deal. They are sending me the correct mount!

Nice people. Nice products!

Default Dbx40

Off with the Cobra Neighbor Haters, and on with Rinehart DBX40’s.

We have DBX45’s on our Limited. This was a request from my wife. The CNH sound really good with a stock motor. The issue is they are a little short for specials with stretched bags. We like the chrome and black contrast we have going on and a pipe that extends out a little farther.

Sound to be determined.

CR and I now have very similar bikes, he's been very thrifty with his money, vicariously through me that it is, over the last couple of months

I'm not matching him part by part, but I'll say that I have installed some things based on his comments.

- Saddlemen seat. Hoo boi...I've had both an Ultimate Seats and a Danny Gray, both are all day, all comfort, endurance seats. And I like the Saddlemen better. It's a winner

- Klockwerks. Buy it. Worth every penny

- Pro-Action front suspension. We'll see. Jury is still out.

- I still like the CD lights over HD.

- Floorboards...pure preference. I have Performance Machine grips and foot pegs, happy with stock.

- One thing I have not done is slip ons. MK 45's have been my choice in the past. Cosmic may sway me in a different direction.


These are threads I appreciate. Lots of kewl things to ogle over and some of the are actual improvements over stock, especially in the seat and windshield categories.

Your RK was beautiful, but you need to update your signature photo with the new SGS. It’s beautiful also!

It’s cool that we are doing them similar. Glad I can help you spend some money! LOL

Get ready, the wife’s tour pack should be here early next month and our stereo equipment is being delivered today!

Then I am 99% done! We are sitting on the fence regarding a cam. The bike preforms so we’ll stock that I hate to touch it. But they just sound so good! We’ll see.

You ended up on a FLHXS? Well damn, we can surely help you spend money! You should hang out in the Milwaukee 8 sub as well. Post pics!
(we will have to argue about the CD lights over the HD )

Great lookin bike, Cosmic! I didn't realize you had a thread dedicated to it. I just found this thread by accident - I usually only frequent the M8 forum and sometimes the Rushmore forum because I have a 2017

Based on your other posts, I bought the Cobra Neighbor Haters today (in black)! Looking forward to hear the difference coming from Street Cannons.

Did CR and Izzo get that Rushmore thing resolved?

(oh, and he has me looking for Rhineharts, I thought the Cobra's went in the trash)

Boy you like stirring the pot don't you! LOL

I have to respect my elders. Got to be nice to the old man!

You are a smart man 6113. Keep paying attention! We rode 50 miles tonight and the Carolina Girl gives two thumbs up on the Rineharts. She really likes the sound, but is requesting the cam for better idle.

Clearly I missed a good argument. Am I not allowed in the Rushmore sub-forum with my lowly '19?

Cosmic, did you get the stereo all done?
