Default Thanks for the input...

I posted a thread a few days ago about advise on switching from a Street Bob to a Night Train. This past Saturday I made the switch. I traded in my Bob for an 09 NT, black denim. All I can say is thanks for the advice on making the swap. I rode about 50 miles on Sat and 100 miles on Sunday. What a difference... I feel the NT is a much better bike than the SB. I like the wider rear tire and the lower ride it offers. I feel the bike has better handling. I am working on mods to the bike now. Ordered V&H pipes and some Battistini grips pegs and shift linkage. Dont know what direction to go in next. Ill post some pics of the old bike and the new bike when I get a chance in the next day or two. Thanks again for everyones input.

Congrats on the new ride, but contrary to popular opinion I would advise you to stay WAY away from the NT picture section.
At least until your bank account can stand a big hit cause those guys will give you all kinds of 'expensive' new ideas.
