I sat on one at my Dealer this week, felt great, the bars were very comfortable, its so low that too me the bike feels very light with the low center of gravity. If I was shopping for a Softail it would be high on my list!

SWEET! The parts your putting on the slim will help me decide which bike I will ultimately want. If I were to get a slim I would definitely be doing similar mods. So pumped to see your ride!

The wife just bought one...sits low enough that she can finally be flatfooted at a stop (had an 883L). She needed a reduced reach seat to move the controls to where they need to be but other than that it is a great fit for her. She's not crazy about the license bracket, where did you find the verticle axel mount?
