Default New to the wide glide, anything I should know?
I moved up from a sportster. Just wondering what everyone has had success with. Any issues I may have to address soon. Only problem I have right now is the front brakes squeeling and bit of vibration in the low RPM's all easy fixes. Most of y'all from the forums recommend andrews cams, sounds like a gun winter project

Umm, let's see:
1) Don't black everything out, Harley's are supposed to have some chrome.
2) Don't try to make it a gangsta bike, that's been way, way overdone.
Other than that, enjoy and make it your own. Nice change from a Sporty.

A long read, but worth it! Helped me a lot in parts and the direction I wanted to go with Mods.

Default don't ask us
Do your own thing and don't rush it. Make it your own.
Good luck

Will do gents, I blacked out my sportster for left almost no chrome, I will definitely keep some chrome on this one. I am thinking maybe a thunderheader exhause or D&D Bobcat
