Seat
I'm short and could hardly reach the ground with the OEM seat. I opted for the Reach seet and Pillion, before even leaving the dealership, as it lowers me a good inch and pushes me forward, enableing me to flat foot with one foot and reach the controls much better. Just pulled back the Handlebars as far as they would go and now I'm much more comfortable. With the handlebars in their original position my arms were stretched to to straignt arms and it forced me to using the levers with my fingertips. Now no problem. Arms are bent and can use my whole hand to work the levers. Next step is the HD front and rear lowering packages to get that extra inch I need to be able to Flat foot with both feet. It's hell to be vertically chalanged .

I was getting some buffeting at highway speeds with my 3/4 face helmet with the stock shield. With no helmet, no problem. I got my 17" Freedom shield last night. Haven't had a chance to ride it yet but I figure it's the same height as stock, an inch or two wider and can't hurt.

The pinstripe work was done by a gentleman named "Brody". He happend to be at Destination Daytona Harley Davidson just before Biketoberfest this past October when I purchased the bike. Not a cheap mod, but overall I'm very happy the way it looks.
