Default Wrapper Front Fender Prep, Paint and Install

Finally got some pics uploaded of the bike.

How it was when I picked it up at the dealer:



The list of mods/add-ons when picked up at dealer included:
  • Rush True Dual Headers and Big Louie Pipes
  • SE Billet Air Cleaner
  • SERT PRO
  • Hidden Antena in the fairing
  • Heated Flame Grips
  • Flame Running Boards, Highway & Passenger Pegs, Shift Pegs and Brake Pedal
  • Black Tear Drop Mirrors with Running and Turn Signal Lights
  • Com Plug for phone (no headset yet though)
  • Saddlebag Liners
  • Mid Frame Heat Deflectors
  • 4 Point Mounting Hardware
  • Passenger Back Rest
Future Mods/Add-ons:

  • Tour Pack to satisfy the wife when she is not on her bike *Done*
  • Higer windshield, probably a 7 or 8" recurve - tinted. *DONE*
  • Driver backrest *DONE*
  • Maybe a Hammock Heated Seat for those cool Spring/Fall morning commutes to work *Went with a Sundowner since the Hammock doesn't work with the adjustable backrest*
How it is now:




The bike is still running on a SERT PRO downloaded tune. It runs pretty good. It does have a backfire on decel and rev and a slugish throttle on rev. I expect both of these will go away once it's dyno tuned at its 1,000 mile tune. I originally thought the dealer was going to dyno it before I picked it up but he recomended I wait cause after break in, it would not run the same.


Neutral is hard to find when hot. My father in law has a 2012 CVO Ultra with the hydraylic clutch and he said it was hard for him to find neutral untill after a couple 1,000 miles. I have no problem finding it on his bike.


This bike is much hotter on my right leg than my 2001 Indian Softail was with an 88. I only notice the heat when my feet are on the highway pegs but I just raised them up some tonight and that should help. I have not noticed this on my Father-in-Laws 110 CVO and his pegs are much higher than mine were to start with.

So far the BOOM Radio and GPS has worked just fine for me. I cannot get the auto text feature to work with my 4s but other than that is works fine for me. I will admit that I have not used the GPS other than to get home from the dealer when I picked it up just to test it.

Overall, I am really happy with this bike. I am looking forward to the DYNO tune at 1,000 miles, higher windshield and a backrest. My last bike had a really tall windshiedl and backrest so I am afraid I was ruined for life.


I will post updates after the tune.* The bike actually learned the Stage 1 and self corrected for the Decel Pop and sluggish throttle. Bike was Dyno Tuned which fixed a flat spot in the curve.*

....... thanks for taking/posting the images
..... nice to see what folks go thru to 'out the door' upgrade their rides
......... i'm likin' the flamed, heated grips
.... and you're right in thinkin' of the heated seat, it really helps on longer cool-weather rides

How did it get all those bugs on the fairing before it left the dealer? Did they set-up your bike at night? JK

The last couple of pics with the bugs stuck to the fairing are in my garage after a 120 mile day ride. The bugs are still bad here in the Northeast.

Love the black pipes! Sure the dyno tube will iron out the decel pop etc.
