I just changed the exhaust. I got too black on the bike. I know lots of guys love all the black, but it just got a little boring. I got a steal of a deal on those pipes (SE Pro 16ga / V&H Double Barrel) and couldn't pass it up. The chrome pipes help offset all the black. I also swapped the black primary for the original satin. I like the look much better. The 2-1 system is sitting a a shelf in the garage.

That is a short HD king size shield from a new Heritage. I got that for a steal too. I think it is a 15" tall model, just right for me. No problem hitting the apes. My bars are slightly forward of the plane of the forks and could go forward much more without issue. I can get you better pics if you want. I like the HD windshields because of fit and the quality of the Lexan. I run the shield 'cause I'd rather be comfortable than cool. It does come off for local shows though.

Default TSM removal question

My bike did not come with the Security so I am adding it. Will be replacing the Turn Signal Module (TSM). Seems this between the rear wheel and the engine. Can someone give me a little help in figuring out how to access this?

Don't know on a '12 model, but on a '10 it is behind the rear tire splash shield. One allen head bolt on the bottom of the shield comes out, then it pops out at the top. Slide it up on top of the rear tire and then look towards the oil tank. You'll see the TSSM there. Remove and replace with the security enabled one. Again, might be different with a '12 model. You should pick up a FSM, worth every penny.

Yeah the module is right behind the splash guard. I couldn't get mine to slide up when I installed my siren. I still managed to get it in there but it was a really tight fit. A Marine's preoccupation with dead hookers is more of a hobby then anything and no one gets hurt since hookers have no souls and aren't real people anyways. I'm hoping my derby cover comes today but it's being shipped from Hawaii I think. It'll probably get here Wednesday like the seat. It won't be too much longer and my exhaust package should be here too.

Ya you guys and your dead hookers. I babysat a Platoon of Marines while I was a Drill Sargent at Fort McClellan in the 80's. They came there for Military Police School. All I can remember is that they were a hand full. They always had the up most respect for us Drills but their fu*k fu*k games with each other and the Army recruits were way over board at times. I do believe there was an incident involving a live hooker or two but no deaths that I can recall.
