I can probably start half of your security equipped bikes in 10 seconds because half of you are too lazy to reprogram your PIN.

If someone wants to steal my Rooster, they're gonna have to call an amber lamps.

So how did you make the run stop turn on the bike? I installed a security system on my bike and couldn't figure that out.

Have your dealer reprogram it when they install your security. You can only do this on BCM bikes (2015 and later).

If that's not clear enough: Only H-D dealers can do this using the Digital Technician II.

I thought they started using bcm on 2014 sportster.

Well, I had my dealer try this on my 2014 sportster which has BCM and they couldn't figure it out so please let me know how it goes and maybe some details on what the dealer needs to do.

I picked up the bike yesterday from the stage 4 install. The Screamin' Eagle kit does NOT include the pushrods, so the dealer had to order them. They are trying to have HD pay for the pushrods as it isn't in the documentation. HD says that buried in the instruction manual on page 91, 99, it has it. Luckily my dealer said they'd pick up the tab if HD doesn't.

Starting over on the 500 mile break in, but it definitely sounds meaner. Once the pipes come in I should have it broken in and ready to tune.

I also put on a pair of Lucky Daves bars. I have to say that it made a world of difference. Slightly straightened me up and relaxed my shoulders and the black bars look great on it.

Kingkupal 1 and Recontopher, what did you have to do with brake line when putting those bars on? Didn't seem there was much play when I was looking at it at the dealer.
