Default stage 1 via fuel moto installed!

Just got all my stage 1 stuff from fuel moto in today and got it all installed. V&H pro pipe in black, the fuel moto ac and the power vision. The difference in the bike is night and day...it really runs like a raped ape now. I really wasn't expecting that big of a difference, but wow does she haul ***. The pro pipe sounds awesome, just like I wanted. The install ate my lunch however. The heat shield clamps really stuck it to me. I guess I got it installed all correctly...it doesn't rattle and I don't seem to have any leaks. I found that my stock header bolts weren't even tight...like prob would have fallen off in a couple of miles. So much for the dealer checking all the bolts at the 1000 mile service. The ac went on with no problem. What are you guys using for covers? The stock round one doesn't seem to fit on there too good, so I just got the washer and stock bolt installed in the middle of the filter and it looks kinda goofy.

Also, can some one with a pro pipe look at the heat shields at the collector and tell me if mine are on there right.

It looks really good. I was so close to ordering Denim Black with Red wheels. Still love the combo.

Here are the pics requested. Let me know if you want certain angles.

Which gaskets did you end up using?

Thanks for the pics, mine looks the same. The instructions were kinda confusing at times.

I went to the dealer and got the new gaskets, they were 20 bucks...so much for 9 bucks like I saw online...either way I just left the stock ones in there. They looked good and have low miles on them. I hate messing with those graphite/wire gaskets like that. V&H sent new ones but the instructions don't mention them and say to use stock replacement ones.

Just ordered a black ac cover and 2" tank lift from dk customs. The stock ac cover doesn't fit cause it hits the backing plate.

How's the sound by the way? Loud?

I have quiet baffles installed but was thinking of putting the standard one in.

I actually think it's quieter at idle than the rush slip ons I had before. But it sounds so much better under load, really smooth. I prefer the sound of a 2 into 1 over a 2 into 2. I don't find it that loud at all.
