Would it be too much to ask for her to call my girlfriend and float some Christmas suggestions??????? I know she is getting me some HD "stuff", but I'm pretty sure it won't in the $1000 range......

Canuck, your bike is awesome. I think tweaks more than anything huge.

Pipes instead of the slip ons would be my choice. Say V&H Big Radius or Staggered? Even a Pro Pipe.

Little thing - chrome sparkplug/headbolt covers would work with the black and chrome thing - cheap, $50.

oh, and PERFORMANCE is GOOD!!!

and I posted this in your gallery by mistake while checkin out the bike to answer your question. I'm a bonehead.

IMO your either free to roam or she might have a hidden agenda ,like dropping some hints lately as females typ. do. if so beware of them and you'll be so much further ahead if you heed any hints, i.e. better seat/pegs, accessories, etc. etc. either way keep her happy - next year she'll have to top it.
