for a 2012 Street Bob - went by Pigtrail HD in Rogers, AR just killing time - I had come close to pulling the trigger on one a couple times over the past 6 months or so but each time life got in the way and forced me to spend some of the $ I had saved and set me back - I had not planned on buying for another month or so but Chris at Pigtrail made me a deal I just could not turn down - Drove it off the lot and took her maiden voyage over to Eureka Springs - fun ride for the first one!
and I know the reflectors are still on - pic was taken at the dealership before I drove it off

Nice ride, congratulations! I'm waiting to see the '13s before I pull the trigger. Until then I'll keep bopping about on my starter metric. This might sound crazy but I've always had bad luck with even-numbered-year vehicles.
My eye is on the FXDF. Ive already got a list of mods in my head: V&H big radius 2 into 1, HD Chrome wheels, Cobra fi2000, SE breather, possible wide glide rear fender mod, smoked lenses, etc.. .
I was wondering, when I do decide to buy, should I purchase stock and ride it a while to get to know the stock bike or should I take delivery with the mods I want and not look back? Your thoughts?

Congrats on the new ride!
I would have preferred to ride stock before stage one, but it was financially easier to roll all the upgrades into the bank loan, than it would have been to come up with cash later down the road
