All nice extras, you will love the back rest. The Limited (I have a '10) has some very nice standard features. The bike will run better with some of the upgrades you are contemplating, however, you will want to at least get rid of the cats and consider cams.

Yep, dump the cats and get new pipes.

Just buying the supertuner, the software and the DVD isn't going to get you done unless you have a dyno. Why not buy one of the new AutoTune systems and let it tune itself.

Definitely get rid of the cat. I went with the V&H power duals, Jackpot Dyno Tuned mufflers w/quiet baffle (insert removed), SEPRT, SEAC, had it dyno'd. Got rid of the heat, runs great.

Nice package! Similar to what I got in Sept.

I haven't heard much good said about the new Pro Tuner. I understand that it limits the rpm ranges and throttle positions that are actually tunable. I'd consider a Power Commander V and Auto Tune (or other comparable tuner) in it's place.

And like some of the other respondent's say, get rid of the cat.

One more thing... I saw that you negotiated a service manual into your deal. Good job - I did the same thing.

But be aware. There's another manual that you need - The Electrical Diagnostic Manual. Make sure to get that one too.

Congrats on the new bike coming. I put the HD adjustable backrest as well and love it. Also added tour pack tether, Billet Boy LED tail light, HD run/stop fender light, Kury run/stop LED turn signals, Kury controller, & (BB) shift Linkage.

I have ordered Vance & Hine Pro Pipe (Chrome), Mastertune TTS, Arlen Ness Big Sucker w/chrome cover, & SE 204 cams. I will get a dyno done after the install.

You're gonna love that bike!
