On the contrary... I would encourage it.

Below is my 2012 Heritage with 28 1/2" Samson TD crossover fishtails and an SE heavy breather AC.

That is a very hot topic, no pun intended. You will likely find answers in some of the threads shown in this search

I had them installed before initial delivery of the bike. So the answer is; the dealer purchased them. Could I have found better prices? Probably, but I had too many mods installed initially from custom paint, handlebars, cables, LED lights, chrome wheels and WWW tires, engine guard, etc to deal with all the individual parts. I felt the dealer gave me a fair price of all the parts including labor to install.

Brave313,

What you're trying to achieve is a Stage 1 (Free Flowing Intake and Exhaust) and a Tune to provide the the engine with the correct air fuel mixture. Most all aftermarket stage 1 air intakes provide the same amount of performance when the engine is tuned correctly. I personally like the Arlen Ness Big Sucker for its simple design.

The Vance and Hines fuel pack is the simplest, plug-n-play tuner on the market but not the most precise or flexible device. It will perform as advertized and is cost effective but it has limitations. Check out the Thundermax or Power Vision tuners.
