+1. Now shorten up the span between your turn signals in the back to clean it up a bit and ride it. Nice looking sled.

Thanks.
I just replaced the exhaust. Stock O2 sensors are still in there.

I plan to ride it this way for a while, I see no reason to mess with the "mapping" until I replace the intake. That is still a ways out. I will keep everyone posted as I get some more miles on it.

I'll get the bags put back on today and get some more pics, should look good.

I may do that when I install the new HD LED turn signals.

The duals are a great option, MOCO should offer them from the factory. I did the shorter turn signal rear stalk since I ride mostly without saddlebags. I also did a hi-flo air cleaner kit with HD's stage 1 download, she runs great. Here's mine with V&H true duals, gotta like the retro look....

Here's a pic from today with the bags on.

I think it looks great.

I also put the passenger mini-floorboards on the other day.

Wow man! Those look great on your bike...I'm thinking about doing the same thing, but not completely sure. Right now I've got Rush 1.75 slipons, but the Samsons have always been in the back of my mind. Where did you order them from and are you still happy with them?

Beautiful. I like the length too, they don't stick out TOO far. Any heat issues with the left pipe?
