You didn't say how tall of a rider you are but one thing you might look at if you find the stock floor boards are not out from the bike far enough or forward far enough is the Harley Goodies Floorboard extensions paired with the Touring models floorboards which put the board forward a couple of inches.
It's one mod I did since I am a 6'1" rider and have loved it for how comfortable it makes it now.
Just a suggestion anyway.
Did you get the auto tuner for the PC 5 as well or just the PC by itself? I am thinking about buying one of the PC5's just to have the auto tuner option for later on.

The one thing I would do is look at ALL the fantastic looking bikes on this forum and decide on a direction you want to go toward. Then start making your bike yours!
CHROME and spoked wheels are very popular on Heritages. You can't go wrong with those two purchases.
Good Luck!

You picked a bike you can do almost anything to. Good choice. Intake and exhaust. lost of chrome, but remember. the more chrome you have the more time you spend "shinin" it up. Engine gards with highway pegs are my favorite usable addon. Makes the long rides a breeze. Or a high wind. Whichever you prefer.

Believe me I've been at work skimming through a ton of posts and pictures.. amazing what you guys are doing! I'm not sure that I like the engine guard so I was looking at the Kuryakyn Cruise Arms.. then saw the laydown license plate.. don't like that billboard look on the back right now.. Then I was looking at the smoked out Panacea LEDs.. next thing you know I'm looking at over $500! Jeez.. just gotta work a little more and pick up these goodies next month 
lionsqrne, I just bought the PCV from FuelMoto.. didn't get the auto tuner.. they had a map that worked with my specs so they are programming it for me and shipping it out..
Thanks guys!! Any other pics/suggestions would be great!

Hey Heritage owners! I just picked up a 2009 Heritage. So far I bought some new pipes (VH Big Radius), Power Commander V, Screaming Eagle Heavy Breather, and some new Kuryakyn Iso Grips. Also bought some floorboards to replace the passenger pegs. What are some other mods should I be looking at next? Also, can you recommend a good luggage rack?
Thanks!
Thanks!
If you ride long rides with a passenger, the upgraded Touring Pillion and Passenger Backrest will be needed.
An Engine Guard and some highway pegs are a must! Also some heat shields for the heat off the rear cylinder. I recommend RJS Originals for that.
Some saddlebag shapers are also recommended to keep the bags looking good. I put Boss Bag shapers in mine, but there are many others available. I also added a couple of Boss Bag hang-on bags for the wife's stash while riding.
As someone said, you can keep adding things to a Heritage till you're broke and not be done.
