Default Road King Special M8 Turbo

Hello,
I thought some of you may like to see the bike I just finished putting together this weekend. It is a 2017 Road King Special with a Aerocharger setup. I modded my kit off my 2013 Street Glide. Bike runs real good and strong. The team at aerocharger where a big help getting this done as there are not many M8's that are boosted right now. No it is not a Street Glide, I added a batwing to it as well. I will be riding it 1200 miles next weekend and I will let you know how she does.
I hope you like it.

So I'm gonna go out on a limb here and guess that you are not worried about the 2-1 exhaust voiding your warranty????

I would not trust Harley to honor the warranty even if I did not touch the bike. To many issues in the past. So once you realize that and are at peace with it..who cares? That bitterness is not directed at you.

The rear pegs will fit fine, I had them on my 2013 I just need to get a 3/8 spacer to pull the left side out a bit. So I pulled them both off so I could ride it till I do, should be taken care of by the end of the week.
