The Win8 tablet was still cheaper than a Windows install disk. Besides the only Mac I have right now that could handle Windows is an iMac.

I had Parallels and WinXP on my MacBook Pro before it died. It worked well, but I hardly ever used Windows anymore so the extra cost doesn't seem worth it.

Guys, I got one more question (although I kind of know the answer). Just wanted to be sure.

Assuming that the bike already was tuned for a stage 1 when we bought it, I can put on the RSD turbine air cleaner without re tune correct ?

If it's already set up with a "Stage1" you can change to any AC or exhaust you please as long as you stay with the same style of exhaust, i.e. 2-2 or 2-1.

Excellent. Thank you oldenuf. I'm glad you mentioned the variable of changing from our current exhaust set up of a 2-2 to a 2-1. I would not have though of that.

I'm gonna slap the RSD cleaner on it and ride it for a few hundred miles before I take it to the stealer along with the screaming eagle race tuner. I wanna see if I can feel any difference or pick up on any signs that the motor is not running properly due to the new a/c.

Any specific signs I should be looking for other than the decel popping or hesitation when getting on the throttle?
