DragonSlayer08, thanks for the info you have provided me. It's hard to feel totally connected to a group of owners when your bike is on a truck somewhere in the middle of NorthAmerica, but believe me when I turned over that big V-twin today and hit the open road I was instantly connected to all you guys. I look forward to learning and sharing my knowledge.
Thnks for all your help

Dude, I can relate.. My wife is the money person in the family.. We walked into the Harley Shop and she fell in love with our Rocker-C. Whenever my riding buds wanna go riding, she ALWAYS wants to ride.. That's a good thing. I am trying to convince her on the Heartland ezrocker modification... Seem to be nicer and more comfortable for a passenger.

The Heartland EZ-Rocker kit is definitely on my Radar as well!! It's an expensive mod, 1999.00usd for the rider seat and 899.00 for the passenger seat!! However, it clearly enhances the driver positioning and the true badass look. My only concern right now with this mod beyond the price tag is whether the Arlen Ness lowering kit, which really sets off the look at a mere Approx. $69.00usd. is a do it at home add on or a shop job and the painting of the rear fender that comes with the Heartland kit, unpainted. I intend to keep my factory flames on the front fender and tank so I would have to have the flames repainted on the new fender to match it up. In Newfoundland I don't believe I will achieve the Excellent job I would be looking for.
Oh my, so much to consider
