no those are the good news, my father was happy to keep his softail and now we're riding together.

What are iso grips? I really wanted to change the bar to something that allowed me to sit back more while keeping the same look

That sewing machine sound is just the stock pipes. Put ANY OTHER pipes on it and you'll be MUCH happier!

Congrats on the new bike and enjoy riding it with your dad!

Congratulations Brother ! You have joined a life long group of THE BEST people around.
You will hear the deeper mellow tones with NEW PIPES and AIR - Also you will notice more torque by completing the above mentioned upgrades in STAGE 1. This is what we all mean by saying HD Taxes Paid.

sure thing..looking for some shortshots staggered black and maybe a fulepak.. not sure if i need a fuelpak or not, what do you guys suggest. As it is already this little guy moves very very quickly, the only thing is that the gears sound like metal slaps most of the time.
