For those interested in the Vance & Hines Hi-Output slip ons......they are no where near loud with the included baffles. They are wrapped but straight through. They are no louder than the S&S Grand National's I was running with the standard baffle but the V&H's have a deeper tone. I feel no difference in power output.

Reason: Spellin'
The shiny black pieces were driving me nuts and I have always disliked the tread of the OE Fat Bob tires, both the Dyna and Softail versions. While there are a few parts left they now just break things up a bit. I didn't want everything with a matte finish. Hopefully I can start getting some heat cycles into the new shoes tomorrow. We are having some weird weather here.
Oh, and blackmill.....good job on the plate relocation kit. Very subtle and sano.
I can say that the radial Bridgestone Exedra Max tires are FAR better than the OEM Dunlops. The offer a much smoother ride and have a better profile that helps the bike handle better.
Got my fat bob the end of January. Had the dealer install stage 4 kit 2 weeks later. Stock 114 was fast already but now its a beast. We finally had some good riding weather the past two weekends and I got to ride with my sport bike friends. One rides a 2007 R1 and 2014 Street Bob. The other friend is on a Ducati 899. On our ride two weeks ago R1 leads the first leg followed by the 899 then myself and a CBR500. When I had my Road Glide they would be so far ahead but not this time. I was keeping up with their pace and on their tails. Next leg 899 leads but we get stuck behind some cars. I saw an opening and I ended up leading and leaving them behind until we got to our stop. My friend with the 899 says I pinned the gas and saw you were still pulling away, I thought something was wrong with my bike. Didnt know the fat bob was that fast Last Sunday after we finished our ride my 899 buddy says I cant ride with you anymore cus you make me ride faster, when I following you in the corners I was saying to myself theres no way a Harley is faster than me and Im on a sport bike.
Cant wait to take the Fat Bob to the track along with my RSV4. Btw my 899 friend is looking at buying a Fat Bob 114 now. Haha!

FYI for anyone in the market. I saw their video yesterday of the test ride and decided to check out the listing just for S's & G's. It seems they don't know how to price a barely used FXFBS, to the benefit of whoever scoops her up. My local has 2 2018 107's with similar mileage for $1500 more.

Yeah me too, I couldn't stop laughing while I was reading that ..... I wondered what woke the OP , up the neighbors or his alarm clock ...sorry could not resist.
