Bassani road rage

Anyone install a Bassani road rage 2-1 on their low rider. I have one ordered and am wondering about the difficulty of the install. Thinking about keeping the stock intake and running a fuel pack 3. 2016 low rider. Thanks for the help.

I had the Bassani Road Rage on my Hammer and Nightster...easy install.

As far as RG compared to the LR...completely different animals! I have both.

That is a lot of additional weight. The LR is as heavy as I am willing to go.

Thanks Super08.

There is a huge difference in weight between the LR and RG. Can't throw the RG around as EASY as the LR.

HD fan it looks like you got all your riding bases covered. The touring bike for the long trips, the sports bike for some hi-performance fun and the LR for all-around general fun riding. What have you done to your LR?

Exactly Ike. I use the smaller bikes for work(sportbike for rainy days).

I bought the LR with the Thunder Header and Screaming Eagle intake already installed. Not sure of the tune though as I get a lot of pop on decel. I love it though. Completely different than the RG. Pulls really hard and I can toss it around like it's a dirt bike. Specially after getting of the RG. LR's are awesome with the dual brakes, 49mm forks and that 103

Anybody having cosmetic issues with the front forks in the stock finish? Mine is pitting and starting to show signs of wear after 6 months. I would love to paint them black.
