So I ordered a Windvest shield and Mustang Day Tripper seat. Going to do a service including fork oil.

Is the seat you have on the bike comfortable? I might be interested if you would want to sell it

The seat is not bad. It is a stock HD seat. Not sure which model seat it is.

When I get the new seat I will let you know. No idea how long it will be until Mustang gets the new seat here.

Great bike...!!

Good year Twin Cam engine... that year had the hot forged cranks and lefty timken bearing.. great platform for longevity and/or to build it a little..

I have an early twin cam with the HD 95" big bore kit... bike runs excellent... and has been trouble free since I installed the kit in 2003...

Just make sure the spring cam tensioners have been addressed. If you have to address them yourself, while in the cam chest replace the OEM, INNA brand caged style inner cam bearings with Koyo-Torrington brand captive needle style inner cam bearings, and the engine will last for many, many miles...

Enjoy the new bike....
