What would you do differently to your bike if you had to do it over, if anything?

 

Pay cash

 

Why...unless you got screwed on the interest rate. HD is now advertising 1.9% APR. if you have $30K in cash...it would be a better return to finance the bike at 1.9% and get market return on the $30K.

BTW...for those of you that advocate to never finance...a similar rule exists that says to never buy anything that depreciates.

Oh yeah...what I would do differently? I wouldn't have mounted the MiniBeast air horn under the fork brace...where when I hit a big pothole it dented the front fender. I didn't think the suspension would compress that much. Everything else I would do the same...including financing it.

 

I would have rolled my engine mods into the purchase so it was all covered under warranty. Huge regret on my part. Air, exhaust, cams along with a tuner should have been done on day one.

 

By virtue of the fact that I've taken my time over 3.5 years getting my bike where it is today, not a thing. I'm glad I didn't rush into changing everything I wanted to change though, or I might have regrets.

 

I did try though. Missed out on a mint, extremely low mile, black 08 ultra, by one hour. Ended up buying this white 04 ultra for a couple thousand less.
It would have saved me about 100 hrs of work, as it was rough looking. Not so much now.

 

Absolutely nothing!

 

Yeah I'm more than happy with my 15RGS but if I could do it again I would've added a 110 kit to right off the bat so it would've been covered under my warranty/ESP. Didn't think about it till after the fact. I got 0.9% financing on it so that would have been nothing to tack that on

 

Would have installed Power Vision on it day 1.

 

Nothing.
