I'm beginning to feel like Clammy...shen will my bike be ready. I called the dealership today and they said that the parts for my stage I upgrade were in and that they'd be working on putting them on this afternoosn. (It was 2:45 at the time). All of my dealer's preordered bikes come with the Security System, so I asked if the siren came with that. They said, no and that it was $87 extra plus about 2 hours of labor, HOWEVER, if I got it as part of my new bike vefore delivery, that there would be no labor charge. Sounded like a good deal to me, so I told them to put it on. The Parts Man said "Great, we'll order it and let you know when it geets here and the bike is ready."
So good news and bad news. I got something I wanted, saved money on it, but now my bike won't be ready til next week.
BTW, I asked about the pager and he told me it was something like $194 but that he thought it needed some other hardware as well. My response was to forget it.
I may get it later, but for now, I just want the bike!!!
It's supposed to be 60 degrees here on Mon. and Tues.
One of these days. Now I'm beginning to understand how some of you other people who are waiting feel.

 

Two hours of labor to install a siren? How about ten minutes? All that's involved is removing the seat, plugging the siren into the existing receptacle, and putting the seat back on the bike. Perhaps the two hours included a trip to McDonald's and Deluxe Breakfast Meal. The siren comes with clear installation instructions and photos. Do it yourself and save the $$ for something "useful" like a chrome coil cover and a chrome battery cover -- both can be installed in well less than an hour in your garage.

 

comes in. I have an 05 Super Gllide. I called and they told me 2+ hrs labor to install forward controls. Well I purchased them and when I finally got them it took me (who isn't an experienced mechanic) about 45 min to install them. I have since decided to install a tach, well we'll see how that goes..............................
I'll keep you updated.

I hope you didn't buy your Stage One stuff from the dealership. If you did, you cost yourself quite a bit of money. My example, when I did my stage one last week on my new Super Glide Custom:

V & H Big Shots Staggered purchased at directparts.com $429 (HD dealership - $575)

Ness Big Sucker Air Cleaner purchased at directparts.com $88 (HD dealership for Screamin' Eagle Air Cleaner - $129)

Power Commander purchased at directparts.com $289 (HD dealership wanted $379)

Only glitch in my purchase was the fork lock didn't work with the key. The dealership will have their delivery guys come to my house next week, take my bike back to the dealership, fix it, then re-deliver my bike in the truck the same day.

 

Thanks for the comments and help, gang. but I got them to throw in the labor for free on the StageI upgrade and the siren. Also I went with the SEII slip-ons. BTW, If I choose to upgrade or sell the bike and take off the SEII's, my dealer said that they do the re-map back to standard for free.

 

good deal Art. sounds like you have it going on!
