I love mine! No real dislikes except low speed turns takes some practice due to it's increased rake. By the way, what seat is on yours?

you cant go wrong!! people will come on and whine about the "does not fit deuce" parts but i never had a problem because i always bought parts to fit a deuce???
they are the best handling/riding softail,you can put a 180 tyre on!only if you use the SE 180 dunlop that is,and not to difficult to go 200 if you want, lot more of a hassle on other pre 06 softies!
one con,a lot of people dont like the rear fender!!
enjoy your deuce!!

My buddy has a Deuce and I have have always liked them. They have a look of their own. As kiwideuce has already mentioned, the parts aren't as interchangeable as others. There doesn't seem to be as many used parts but plenty of new. That's about the only thing I can think of and don't really see that as a negative.

Congrats on you scoot!

Ride On!
