Dang, cocky...that's a fine looking ride you got. As far as the smoothness folks have mentioned, I haven't noticed anything I would characterize as vibration on my '05 heritage. She rides like a dream even at hwy speeds.

Thx again guys. My dyna was pretty stable at high speed, but at idle it almost jumped up and down off the pavement and vibrated real good until about 3000 rpm. Haven't had the deluxe up to a real high speed yet but so far it's pretty smooth. Wifey says her butt is smoother on the deluxe but that is yet to be seen.
