Default 2011 Cross Bones

Hey guys, I am thinking about getting the 2011 Crossbones fromt he military exchange so its ready for me when i get back from Iraq. I just have a few questions about it. Does it come with passenger foot pegs already on it? becuase i couldnt tell in any of the pictures. Also i was thinking about the V&H staggered short shots on it... To put pipes on it what else do i need? I also am pretty big and want to put another seat on it. One that sits a little lower, any suggestions? This is my first Harley after a long string of Jap bikes and I am pretty excited to start working on it. Thanks

My 08 did not come with anything for a passenger. So your looking at needing pegs and the passenger pillion. As far as exhaust goes you will need a programmer of some sort, about $300 bucks. There are 600 seat options for it, everything from the spring seats to standard softail seats. Good luck, you will love the bike

No for the passenger stuff...that all extra...
If your going to add pipes... I would also think about a high flow air cleaner and then some type of tuner / fuel management device...
As far as the seat.... the stocker is not that bad
I changed to the '25 seat so I could sit back a little further... and then went with a custom to fit the flow of the bike...
When I ride for distance I will put the '25 back on...

First off, thanks for your service sir! If you want a discount on Vance and Hines prices email or Pm me. I can get you a far better than retail price on pipes, tuner and air filter setup. You can put it on yourself. It is very simple. DREW@DRVTWIN.COM

There are also all kinds of aftermarket pegs that are much nicer than the Harley pegs and most likely around the same price. I discount everything for forum members and even more for Military guys.

For my 09 Bones you have to buy a passenger peg mounting kit, passenger pegs, passenger pillion, and I guess the sissy bar is optional. It all adds up pretty good in cost. I didnt get any because Im single and if a girl ends up wanting to ride she can sit on the fender or pay to have all that crap put on

I like my stock seat.. it came from the dealership with the thick padded touring solo saddle but I did just order the 2" springs for it. I can sit flat footed (5'8") but its still slightly uncomfortable right now. Short shots look great IMO but I agree I would also throw on an intake and a tuner of some sort. Increase performance and its just better overall. Dont want to mess up your AFR or anything.

Welcome back and good bike choice!

Bike wont come with any passenger foot pegs. I had to buy some and I chose the footboards.I thought they were very expensive but I like the look and feel.

if you are only doing the pipes you don't need any tuners. If you are doing the air cleaner as well then you need the tuner.
