Nice bike! Congrats! I'm a few months away from re-entering the Motorcycle world myself after TOO long an absence, and I'm going to be looking for a used Super Glide. I want to get one from 2004 or later because of the Fuel Injection.

Casteel, what does Stage 1 mods consist of? Also, and this is for anyone, what exhaust mods do you think give the best low rumble at idle?

Thanks!

Thanks everyone for all the awesome suggestions. I'll have my work cut out for me the next couple days trying to find a pair I like.

@wildcard6: as it's been explained to me the stage 1 is basically upgrading to a "full" exhaust, high-flow intake, and having the proper mapping download installed on the bike.

Good luck!

-John
