Dave,

I don't recall if the rocker box covers are black on the Lo or not, judging by Dave's sig pic, they aren't. Also, if it were me, I would choose an exhaust other than the SE stuff. There are plenty of other companies that make black exhaust now.

I was wondering if the wide touring seat was too wide and a regular touring seat was better.
Thanks. Lots of hot bikes on here!
Mustang Sport Tour on mine. Wide Tour was too wide and BFU in my eye

I looked at the V&H exhaust, but I like the look of the shotgun mufflers. Is there a performance difference?

There are things out there other than Vance and Hines too. Most any of the big companies are making black pipes now. You could always go with a set of black slip ons, Vance and Hines, Rush, Samson, hell, there's too many to list. A lot of folks I have talked to are unhappy with the sound of the SE
