Default High Output Charging System

Curious on opinions on upgrading to a high output charging system. I know HD makes a set up but it seems a little limited with the fitament. (2011 and newer). I read alot of positive comments about Cycle Electric components being top of the line.

Any advantage?

If it is in regards to your stereo set-up,..........the stock system should do ya good. I know that a few of us are running close to 1500 watts of amp power , and although the Ultra has a little beefier charging system, it hasn't failed me yet !!

the biggest draw on your system aside from starting it is the stock headlight. I see that you've replaced the incandescent lights with LEDs for your signals front and rear and the PBR amp draws very little current as well. I wouldn't go through the expense as I agree with GP, it's not needed.
