Default My 2018 Street Glide Special Stage 3

I have been mentioning in a few threads about having a 2018 Street Glide Special and just got it back yesterday from having the Stage 3 installed. I wanted the 7 year ESP on it so I stuck with all H-D parts. I know I will lose some performance but near 71 years old it will still probably have enough power to satisfy my needs and abilities at this point in my life. Instead of pics made the short video below.

Installed:

Stage 3 with SE Tuner and Smart Tune Module
Hi Flow SE Exhaust
Heavy Breather with cover
Klock 6.5" windshield
Axle covers
Highway pegs
Custom Dynamics front and rear lighting

Ready to install:

Black docking hardware with new style long covers
Black short sissy bar
Black curved license plate holder

Need to buy:

Grips
Daymaker black headlight
Black shifter rod

Nice, that does sound good. Guess I need to step back from my bike while the wife twists the throttle for me.

Badass! Inspiration to anyone who thinks age (as a specific number) inhibits one's ability to ride.
