I bought mine in late December and have almost 4,500mi. on it already! Love the bike, it was truly made to lean. Lots of power on a smaller frame than the bigger touring bikes and very nimble. I was not interested in a fairing or saddle bags when I was looking for a bike, but the quick detach finally got my attention and I'm so glad I gave it a look. Practicality also won over for me because I have not taken the bags off. The fairing I have gotten use to, but use it only on long highway rides like commuting to work. I am going to have slipstreamer make me a taller (12in) windsheild for that highway ride back and forth to work. I do enjoy riding on the weekends without the fairing, different feel and look. I also do not care for floorboards and so this bike is simple yet BadAss! I have changed out the grips but will wait for more designs to come out before making other changes. I wish HD would come out with more of their bar & shield logo on some parts. I am anxious to change out the exhaust but not much out there yet. I read some more good reviews on the TAB slip on for this bike, I may go ahead and do it because I think this bike could sound much better than it's stock muffler.
I have the TAB slip on with Zombie baffle, could not be happier. yes it sounds different than my old sporty, but it is a different engine all together. Also having the TAB Muffler allows me to swap it back for the stock muffler easy if I have to take it in for warranty work. I have not done anything with aircleaner yet so no need to tune.
Get the TAB and don't look back
I love mine. 3000 miles so far and couldnt be happier. Ive done a couple mods.
stage one with tab performance slip on , zombie baffle
handelbars
black turn signals and levers
heated grips
harley 5 screen blacked out
What bars are those and did you install yourself or have HD do it? I am being quoted 4 hours to swap bar because of internall wiring. If I have to pay anything close to that I might as well extend the cables. I really want a narrower handlebar but didn't think t-bars would work while keeping the front fairing on? Yours seems to work great? Also did you install the heated grips yourself? All mods I would love to add. Thanks for any insight.
I have 1000 miles on my Sport Glide , Bassani pipe, SE extreme air intake and a Dynojet power vision with a tune included by Fuel Moto . Bike runs and sounds great. Solo gel seat by Saddleman. 5in windshield from HD and Custom Dynamics front Led running lights that are white and when I put on turn signal they are amber.

Btw I have a lot of take off that I don’t like to move around and store.... anyone interested? Bags, windscreen...
One thing I do not like: the damn factory seat! It was way uncomfortable, cheap - meant to be tossed. Upsetting because the seat and basically most of what I removed were really crap quality.
Well thank you!
Someone said it looked too much like the Breakout - that hideous mistake.... I’m welding a sissy bar on it now - tall old school one. Will post when done

Bike looks great.
I might be interested in that REALLY CRAP original seat. Thinking of sending mine off to be redone. What do you want for it?
