Sold my 13 SG for the 17 Charcoal/Black Denim back in November but didn't wanna share pics until I got it where I wanted

HogPro 21/18 contrast wheels
Chrome front ends
Smoked front turn signals and smoked front fender light (hated the yellow)
8.5 KW Shield...I also have a 9" LRS
10" Yaffees with Arlen Ness Mirrors and chrome switch housing
Harley Defiant grips, rider/passenger boards, air cleaner cover (Love these)
Harley Tall Boy seat....stock had me too far forward
Tour Pak lights all smoked out along with rear brake light (much cleaner look)
Rear Fender Custom Dyamics Filler/Brake lights ---I looooove these -hated the huge holes. Tour Pak brake light also has CD modulator (flashes)
Shorty Antenna
Stage 1 with SE Street Cannons, Street Tuner...custom tuned.

I can't recall the numbers but the torque did increase enuf to justify the tune. I can't find my dyno sheet, but I remember over 100 torque, can't recall HP....but torque was what I wanted anyway. Bike is quieter than I usually like, but these combat/tinitis ears are actually enjoying the breakk from those V&H great sounding headers/mufflers I used to have. I do notice the Cannons sound really good when rolling on the throttle ...just lacks that low end growl I'm used too...quieter at cruising speed, which I like.

Some local dealers are adhering to the new EPA ruling and so I won't change the headers until 2 years...I travel a lot and don't want to be in Key West, etc and some dealership trips on my headers. I want those cats gone (heat decrease)!

Special shout out to HOGPRO....Rob. This guy spent so much time with me on the phone multiple times, his customer service was superb, shipping was quick, and I felt like I was talking to a riding buddy versus some guy who works at a company. I was on the fence about the 18 rear and he even offered me a chance to ride on this wheel and if I don't like it, he'll give me a great deal on the 16 I originally wanted. Rob I won't be sending this wheel back ---I love it!! Feels like my 18 that was on my SG. I'm 100% satisfied with Rob ...I've seen HOGPRO on this forum for years and this was my first purchase. I highly recommend them.






just released screams eagle exhaust with new head pipe and slip on's. The cat is in the slipon. It is posted under the M8 stage 4 thread.
