2011 Wide Glide with V&H Pro Pipe
POST UPDATE: No riding due to snow and rain in May, so bike is done for the summer. Added Wild 1 Chubby 10" T-Bars and a JD A/C Cover. The bars didn't require any changes to the cables or brake line. We did have to run a tap on the threads as there was some weld slag on them. If you go with 12" bars, you would have to change them out. Below is some other things I did over the winter,
So here what was installed: V&H Pro Pipe Chrome, V&H VO2 Naked A/C, and V&H Fuel Pak. I went with the Fuel Pak mainly for simplicity and I don't plan on doing any major modifications to the motor at this point.
Installation was pretty simple and wasn't all that time consuming. Was a fun Saturday evening project with some thinking fluid and hanging out. Once completed, I fired everything up and this thing sounds like I'm running a V-8. I took it for a quick ride down the block and back. Sound was better than anything I could find on YouTube.
Overall, I'm quite pleased with the package V&H puts together, the chrome is top notch and using the FuelPak is stupid simple.

No that is why I ripped off the mouths idea of the JD cover. LOL plus it was on sale from Dennis Kirk.

Why did you switch from the street slammers? Not tall enough? How were they otherwise? I have the carlini clean sweeps but the pull back on them is a bit extreme. Got them for free from a buddy so can't complain.
