Default Finally pulled the trigger!

quick story: had a wife and an 06 deuce, wife almost lost job and deuce was lost.....now i puposefully lost wife and found a new bike!!

just placed an order for a 2013 streetbob in denim black with the 103 and foward controls! they said it would be here on 3/8 and i cant wait! really hoping for some good weather when it comes in too!


that being said, im already trying to pick out pipes, ac, and fueler and need a touch of help. looking at python mambas slipons, arlen ness big sucker, and vance and hines fuel pack. any thoughts on this setup? the guy at the dealership said the VH fuel pack wasn't very good, and they were failing after 2 years. all i can find online is glowing reviews. what do you guys think? also, i love the look of the python with the slash cut, but my deuce had screamin eagle slip ons and i removed the baffles. it was gloriously loud! will these pythons have a similar sound, or will i have to pull the baffles on those too? let me know fellas! thanks.

You're going to love it! I spent my waiting period shopping and asking a lot of questions. It paid off.

You may want to look at full pipes as opposed to slip-ons. The head pipes have a CAT that restricts flow. A full system will perform better than slip-ons.

I have no opinion on the Fuel Pak. The Power Vision tuner seems to be the best-liked, but you'll get a lot of opinions on that.

Congrats on the new ride!!

Sorry about the wife / congrats on the bike.
Slide past the slip-ons and go full aftermarket.
I'm running the Big Sucker because of cost / looks. But any Stage 1 will do.
Any tuner you want except a piggy-back system.

The Super Glide and Streetbob have cats in muffler. Fat Bob,Wide Glide and Switchback have cat in headpipe where the two meet.

any good site to get that power vision tuner? also, i'm guessing that if i buy one of those and map it according to my equipment that i won't have to have the dealer do their download, correct?

so does that mean that doing the slipons won't be so bad then? i understand that the full system will give a few extra hp, but would it really be that much? especially if the cat is in the muffler and not the headpipe?
