Nice bike! I just got mine and I changed pipes, air cleaner and added the powervision... You won't be disappointed with this bike.... oh yeah, I lowered it a little more than an inch also.

If cash is short you can pick a cheap Heritage seat up on EBay, that'll transform your legroom, stock seat is no good If your over 5'8''.

I also went from an '08 Street Bob to a '12 Deluxe. It may very well be the last bike I ever have.
