I ride a Heritage. My wife rides a Dyna Lowrider. Whenever I take her bike out I am reminded how agile and fast it is. But after a few miles I get it out of my system and go back to comfy Softail. I'm 68 and I can tell what's best for me.

You're welcome. I was just looking at your picture and thinking that it's hard to believe that '03 was almost 20 years ago. Where did all that time go? I must be getting old haha
hd4evr2008, the guy who started that other thread is still active here. Maybe he'll stop by this thread and tell us how it's worked out.

Your gonna love Forwards on that.. When I first got my 2013 the seat sucked and the forwards were just a little to far forward for me and I really didn't like the spread of the "10 handle bars.. I'm 5'7".. At 100+ mph my feet were lifting off the pegs and it felt like it was difficult handling the bike because of.. So I installed a Used Mustang one piece 2 up seat in excellent condition (got it from "Fallen Cycles for $250) and also a 1" relocation kit for the forward controls (decreased the distance). I also turned the handle bars into 10" Buckhorns with some torches and had them powder coated.. I was surprised when bending the bars that they were made out of stainless steel and not regular carbon steel.. With the three modifications I must say it made all the difference in controlling the bike..
Also If your interested, I did a license plate relocation that literally only cost $50.. Its in the Sticky above *How To* under bux*....
