i have another question, i saw a thread about a guy here unhappy with the mileage on his PC-V...
I have a heavy wrist so i dont run the bike easy at all, granted i only do city miles but i usually gass up at around 125 to 140 miles... i've never let it run empty so i dont know if im right on the edge of stalling or if i have some more miles left, but, how many miles do you guys get with a stock setup?
coming from the sportbike world im used to that range... just curious...

And that is vivid black?
Did you need anything special or is it a direct drop in?

My bike is stock ... other than the V&H Big Radius 2-1 exhaust. I run mine on the freeway at 75-85 mph most of the time (I commute 100 miles round trip for work every day). I can run it 200 miles on a tank. When I refill it I usually pump a little more than 4.5 gallons. I keep track of my fuel mileage with an app. on my phone and it says I am averaging 43mpg.
I have stage 1 v&h big rad 2 into 1 and pcv I love it I ride 2 up alot with my girl and do high way to work I'm getting about 150 or so miles per tank but you have to remember and mod changing exhaust air intake or programing will greatly effect feul milage you just have to conceder do you want to get great mileage or have a bad *** ride can't have both ...... Btw tookine to Harley yesterday for my tech to feel the front end it was the first time anyone other than me who's road my scooter and that exaust really sounds bad *** got a chub instantly want to hit the bathroom to rub one off lmfao jk

I know they are. I bought an 08 and spent thousands painting it lowering it and then they came out with the low. Thats all I am getting at.

yeah man it's a good looking bike. I'd ride it, as long as someone else cleans the bugs off the chrome for me
PS. Nothing about nothing, but Williams HD in Lebanon NJ had an open house yesterday which I went to (i needed the shifter spline cover for the heel shifter which i removed..yeay 20% off so it was $12), and I parked my bike right in the middle of the line to where almost everyone else had to walk past it. I can't tell you how many people were like "That's really effing good looking all black like that." then people were telling me about their chromed out bikes and how they have to spend hours polishing every last nook and cranny, to which i replied "Yeah, i basically use some simple green, a hose and a sponge and 20 minutes later she's clean again". they all laughed and were like "Yeah, you're pretty smart".. anywho, just was nice to get some good looks on the bike, makes me think the money invested is worth it.
