all i did was put on a set of V&H Short Shots and FP3 tuner.
runs and sounds awesome.
My buddy says it " growls like a Pitbull " when i twist the throttle.
was a little concerned about how it would handle the tight curves with those fat tires. Handles great. Almost like a spirt bike.

I was a bit concerned about this too after watching reviews on youtube. But I also found that it handles very well. Don't have experience on sport bikes but my VTX 1800 did not handle as well as this bike, for me. Personally I think the 18" tires on both front and rear help in that regard. The bike rolls into corners and does not try to stand up as some said it would. It plants and stays put.
