Installed new mirrors and kuryakyn levers. Ordered a new set of Avon cobra chromes and a kuryakyn smooth consul in gloss black.

Installed Performance Machine 4" Slash exhaust tips. Because they are not offered in slash up for Vance & Hines, I had to drill and tap the tips and rotate the baffles 180 deg.

I used a two part compound putty and stuck it on. I'm going to ride this bike till it drops so I'm not too concerned with resale value.

Don't know about additional HP, but certainly more aerodynamic and will increase top speed, since it follows the profile of the saddlebag. Was joking with Dwayne, at DK Custom, not long ago. We both agreed the chrome air cleaner bracket is definitely a performance adder. Maybe not as much as chrome valve covers, but close.

Have a good one,
Rob

I tried to install Avon grips on my Yaffe bars when I installed them last year but the throttle side was sticking (which I learned is common with this combo). Out of boredom and reading lots of good reviews here, I ordered the Harley get a grips and installed them after work. Looking forward to riding with them this weekend but just sitting on the bike they feel
nice.

(I also rode 80 miles to pick up a new government badge this AM before swapping the grips).
