Congrats on holding out that long! A lot of people never even get it home before doing some sort of mod - myself included.

Yeah, what took you so long to get started making it 'yours'?

I got the very same set up, including the cover. Worked fine for me, but then, I don't go much over 80 MPH anymore, which makes a stage 1 almost obsolete.

Looks nice. Kiss the retirement fund goodbye now that you've started. Have fun, ride safe.

Bought my used 2003 Fat Boy in mid March, it's now mid June, in 3 months I've changed out the exhaust from stock pipes with Cycle Shack slip-on's to V&H Longshots, the SE stage 1 air intake with stock football cover to a K&N with an old school rond chrome cover. Added a backrest with luggage rack, a Willie & Max sissy bar bag, a Capt. Itch cup holder, new grips, and fabricated a bracket on my windsheild to hold an EZ-Pass toll sensor......

Welcome to the poor man's Harley owner's club......and you're just getting started.....

Remember, a Harley is like a Christmas tree, you buy the main unit, then spend the rest of your life hanging orniments on it.....
