Default THE TRANSFORMATION: Stage 1

Starting out- This is my first harley. Bought it new in 1993 and rode it across the country in '03 for the 100th anniversary in Milwaukee. Swore I'd never do a long ride on it again, so I bought an '07 Street Glide and decked it our for touring. No longer needed the '94 Heritage to be comfy for two-up touring. Decided it needed to become my weekend hotrod. Already had some minor engine mods on the old 80-inch EVO and dyno'd at 90HP and 91FPT- so it just needed a facelift to bring out it's personality!

Actually, it wasn't in good enough shape to keep, and definitely not a system I'd recommend. It was the Kerker header pipes that HD sold as their crossover 2-into-2 right from the factory. I put Samson tips on instead of the big mufflers. I still have the big fishtail mufflers that came with it originally and they're in really good shape- but the rest of the stuff went bye-bye. Sorry dude.
