Default new 4" Rineharts, Wild One 575's, BOOM headset and Dunlop 407 rear

Got 15,300 on my 09 and just installed the new 4" Rineharts to replace the 3.5" Rhineys, Wild One 575's, BOOM Headset and a new Dunlop 407 rear. I had 4/32's left on the rear but decided to go ahead and swap it out with some long rides coming up.
First impression is the new 4" are deeper with less sharp crackle, making for more pleasant long days in the saddle but with a little more added rumble. very impressive looking too with the large full length 4" body and opening. love the 575's too, will make the long trips more comfortable.
also had the stock HD headset right speaker crap out last week and the local dealer came through big with the new BOOM headset covered under warranty. new BOOM headset speakers 77117-10 are larger diameter over the 09's and heavier magnet with more bass , nice!!!

yes, definately need to get some updated pics posted.

sickbagger, I stayed with the handlebar mounted mirrors and they work out great on the WO575's, just a couple inches higher and a couple inches further back, nothing radical looking, but a big improvement in comfort, hands are still protected by the batwing

very impressed with Rhiney's new 4"er's
