The very first thing I did was take off the reflectors, then put on smoke turn signal lenses.

Air cleaner and pipes were next after that.

The first two mods?

Gas and Oil. Go ride it first Sasha then make yer move on some sweet parts.

The nice thing about the Train is all the parts that will cross fit the bike. The FXST bikes lend themselves to lots of personalization as 80% of the parts Moco makes can be grafted on the derned thang!!

the softail night train got big potential for many aftermarket choices,but in stock form I am almost shame to come out on the road(please don't get this personally)just my taste,handlebars sucks,head light sucks sets to high on the back seat sucks pipes sucks.........
those thinks must go even before I get the bike on the road.
by the way I am going tomorrow on the morning to tray to pick one up,wish me luck.
