Much better. I think I'd try to lower that front fender a touch. Looks a bit high. (Sorry, overall the bike looks nice).

Really like the color. But I think you need to narrow the bars and turn signals...they look a little too wide for your narrow glide front end.
Nice dual disc front end!

Thumbs up

Bike looks good!

I have been running the V&H Straight Shots an older design pipe on an 05 FXDLI.
Been thinking about the pro pipe? To many mods and to little cash

Thanks for all of the comments! I am still considering throwing the pro pipe back on it but I am still leaning towards the short shots maybe with different baffles. As far as the fender, turn signals, and bars are concerned the bars almost feel too narrow as is so if I do change those I would go a bit wider. I never really noticed how high the fender sat until it was pointed out to me and now it is driving me crazy lol. The turn signals are original as far as I know, those dont really bother me.
