Forgive me if I've missed some information but is that the Bassani Road Rage 3 exhaust in the box? I've been wanting to do XR shocks for a while but I've been holding off for a little due to clearance issues and needing a tensioner. Are you doing anything extra to the front end?
have the grenades on my low rider and on my 48 before that. they are gloriously obnoxious. if u sell that pipe let me know it will look good on my wifes iron

man! where have you been? did you ever get your 1200/1250 conversion?
it's an RR2 -MP. the 3 is nice but, i like heat shields. the xr tensioner is cheap. but from the looks of it, will interfere with my mid rear brake controls. may also need the xr rearsets but, i was already thinking about going to rearsets and way. the grenades are in the way of that as well.
i have a set of burly clubman bars that i'm working through putting on they were not intended for mid glides from the look of them- will limit positioning.
fun times.

P/N:
56884-07 THROTTLE CONTROL ASSEMBLY
56885-07 IDLE CONTROL ASSEMBLY
crusty rotten idle cables
snapped! better in the garage than on the road.
non-OEM A/C= no need to remove to access the cable ends
gtfoh crustys
followed service manual directions and ended up with reversed pull/twist somehow... re-read 4 times and looked at diagrams repeatedly... WTF HD?
fix: reversed the cables on the throttle body since the idle and throttle cable seem to be a different diameter at the control ends.
buttoned up. tested, AAAANNDD i somehow never torqued down the handle bars... winning! torqued now. (shameful)
Did the responsible thing and took the bike out for a quick 10 mile loop... belt destruction risks and all... in the rain... for good measure. i love the shocks ... no belt contact was made, i guess the sag covered that issue but... i will still work on the clearance issues. just can't seem to bring myself to remove the pipes...

been a big 2-1 guy but went with the grenades because the 117 totally overpowers the dyna as it is. Having a complete works setup put in now with 13.5in shocks. Once i get used to all that power a rr3 may be in order but for now its all the beast i need. Peace!
I don't think you can go wrong either way so I understand the tough call. Black goes stealth mode (until you want it to pop) and red will set off the rest of the bike.

Man I've just been working and working. Unfortunately no 1250 conversion just yet. Hopefully before summer I'll be able to do it. I've been looking through this thread and your bike is looking great! How do the roadster wheels feel? Definitely something I would want to do in the future! I might have to get myself some of those shocks and see if I can fit them. Looking forward to seeing how everything works out!

No idea on cams... n4, n6, n8, 585, hammer? Trying to avoid pulling heads to replace springs & push rods. Just looking for bolt-in. But, chrome rocker boxes/covers are on the list. May just have to. Dont want to... really dont want to.... at that point, i might as well go 1250 or stage 4 and that is silly (IMO) from a 1200. For my basic uses.... im not into trying to grab 10hp gainz or even get high hp. I have a dyna for power crazy rides and long hauls. Keeping it simple stupid. .. or keeping it stupid... cus, i m stupid.
