Oh man, bike looks great!!
Love the seat setup... loved that seat when it came out. I was hoping that HD would come out with one in distress brown, but no such luck. I emailed them to try to see if they were thinking about it, but just got the corporate/marketing speech of not being able to share any new product direction... I might have to give in an order the installation kit to go with the seat that I took off my 48.
On the exhaust, what change did you notice on the sound? Much louder?? Or still civilized? I wonder if I am better off finding some baffle inserts and replacing the ones in my stock units... I do not want to make it too loud but would like it to bark a little bit louder...and I do like the looks of the stock black pipes on this bike.
Cheers!

Well, here's my Vivid Black Slim S. Not much different from stock, and I like it like that! I put on the solo spring seat, OEM side tag mount (which is NOT standard in Canada), EPA stamped Screamin Eagle Slip ons, swingarm bag. All MoCo stuff. If I had to do anything else, I would replace the plastic fender in front of the rear wheel, but with what I don't know

Now, I used to love me some loud pipes (the last four bikes I've owned had exhaust made for "track days" only), but for this bike I've purposefully went with an exhaust that would keep me legal, but would still have the potential to upgrade the performance from stock. I'm actually waiting on a Power Vision in the mail

How loud are those pipes, during idle and cruising?
