Well I went to Tifton Harley today to look at the Cross Bones. Ended up riding home on an '09 Vivid black. I got it for MSRP, and they gave me 15,500 for my '08 Fatboy. I think I got a pretty good deal but lemme tell ya, this bike rides awesome. I was skeptical at first due to the handlebars and seat, but the bike fits me like a glove. It handles very well and was very comfortable riding home on the interstate. I was aftraid I might regret it when I got home but not yet. The smile just keeps getting bigger!

Only problem thus far is the stock exhaust and lack of room for the wife. I gotta get to ordering some parts. I'm pretty much decided on the black V&H Shortshots.

I'll post pics tomorrow after the sun comes up

 

congrats on the new bike, great choice. your smile will just keep getting bigger. enjoy the ride...

 

Congrats!!

 

You will not regret it. I love my 09 Crossbones. it is a very well mannered bike. Now get that stock exhaust off so it does not sound like a pissed off lawn mower running down the street.

 

Is there a high flow k&n air filter that will fit the bones, or one from hd. The only one I've found so far is the cone one from HD, and I was looking for something that would fit my stock air cleaner housing.

I've been searching through threads and can't find a number or anything, can anyone help me out, thanks ahead of time.

 

Arlen Ness Big Sucker will fit and you keep the stock air cleaner cover. Huge difference. Congrats on the Bones. When I saw it, I had to get it.

 

Have fun with the new ride!
