Got the 444s on the back (12.5") to match the Progressive fork springs. The improvement in handling is quite impressive (not unexpected as I've done similar changes on prior bikes). My dealer keeps after me to trade in on the Low Rider S but the money isn't there and I thoroughly enjoy how this '14 rides and handles.

How much is the dealer offering you if you don't mind me asking? Just curious since they ask me about my 2013 fat bob every time I come in

We haven't talked hard figures but the guy I deal with says "KBB value". I ask is that the low or high trade-in or retail and he says that would be up to the manager. Uh huh, I'm good-they've got the S priced right around $18,500 including the dealer prep, etc.

Hit some trails today and did a quick lake jam this evening after screaming at the Penguins loss.

Default Finally Upgraded

I've been looking for the 'right' FXDF since last December. I finally found the right one for me and picked it up Memorial Day Weekend. I've ridden it every day since... In fact - I'm thinking about leaving work early today. It's sunny outside...

Default Sup fellow Fat Bobbers

Nice bikes, almost done with mine. Just completed installing 2Bro's exhaust and air cleaner and was dyno'd this morning.

First, what do folks think of the power gains? Meh? Good? I don't really have anything to compare directly to.

Need to get another shot showing exhaust side etc but too lazy right now. . . Pretty much done with appearance/comfort mods, this fall will get to doing engine upgrades and transmission (MOAR POWAH).
