Oh Yeah! Great looking ride. I rode an Iron Head Sporty for 23 years, and finally sold it last year, and bought a 99 Softail Custom. I have wanted one ever since they came out, and I haven't been dissapointed. I really love mine, and I bet you will love yours too.

Thanks. I may have to get some baffles from you guys for riding to work. I just checked out the instructions on your web site and it looks like they are easy to install and remove. Maybe baffles in for work and out on the weekend.

Best I can figure, my pipes are older Big Guns Short Slashers - sound right?

I took a few of my own pictures of the bike. Still not great, but better than the dealer pics:





I just replaced the horn cover with the spikes on it with a Willie G style from V-Twin MFG. My Willie G threat level is now 6. The last owner started it, but I like the skulls OK, so why fight it?
