I would not mind some better rear shocks but the stock ones work well enough for me. I never ride two-up and am under 200 lbs. Spending the extra money some nice Progressive 970s would run is just not something I need to do.
When I started this thread, it was just to get some feedback from actual LR owners. Until my May 2015 Demo Day event rides, I never considered getting a HD. I had no idea the thread would become what it has become.
I hope any new LR owners will stop by and share with us their bikes and mods.

A basic stage 1 is the best mod you will ever make to a new harley. Drastically improves how the bike runs. Really, these bikes were made to run with a more open intake and exhaust.

The bad news is that it only works when the power is switched off on the bike. I must be getting some interference of the signal from the fuse panel when the bike is turned on.
I did not expect that outcome. Back to the drawing board.

The good news is that i mounted my opener to the bottom of my fuse tray cover, where i can just reach down with my left hand and press the button as i approach my house.

I simply keep the remote in a jacket pocket and that works well.
