I got the AC from Rob's Cycle Supply on eBay. Great prices and quick shipping, definitely check him out.

The apes are 16" rise.

Thanks man I went with the FuelPak to reprogram the FI. I haven't actually had it on the road yet to see if tweaking is required, but from what I've heard the guys at V&H are really good about helping set things up if problems arise.

It's hard to say how much louder the pipes are without a SPL meter... I would say... considerably louder I was pretty disappointed with the stock sound, now it sounds like it should

Grats on the new ride, you're gonna love it
