Installed the harley Speedo with tach. I know the tach is kinda small but this is the first bike I've had without it and I missed having it. Pretty cool and you can change the colors on every thing (dial, LCD, needles ). It says 600 colors. Still playing with that. Digging it and looks oem
I have the same one & love it! Gotta have a tach!!
Finally changed out the stock bars. Put on the KST Renegade 10 inch. Kept 10 inch so I could use stock wiring. I understand why these dealerships are charging $100+ an hour. This was a pain in the A$$ job. Getting the wiring through those handlebars in no fun. The RKS has a lot of steps removing the bars, I took about 5 hours total. Biggest pain other than getting wires in the bars is a small nut inside the headlight area that has to come off to remove the nacelle, which wasn't bad, but getting it back on was. There is not a lot a hand room to hold a washer and nut.
All in all.. I really like the look compared to stock, and i'm sure the comfort will be improved.

I just replaced mine with KST Spearheads.I know exactly which screw you are talking about. I used electrical tape to hold the washer to the nut on that little screw up in there and then removed the tape. lol
I know it's been a while, I'm new here & reading thru posts. What inch size is that Freedom shield and is it the dark grey/smoke? I'm looking at buyying one asap for my 2019 114 Midnite blue RK Special...thanks, Jon
Hey mjwebb. Just saw your question about the Kerker Stouts. I really like the tone and look of these mufflers. I was hoping for more sound but think I can't get that until replace headers, air filter, maybe cam which will come next summer. For now, I think the bike definitely sounds better and may have a bit more low end juice. Again, really like the quality of the sound.
You guys should check out the SVT Boneshaker Extreme 450 4 1/2" slipons. I have em & Love em!
If you're in the Florida area, be sure to look up cyclerama. Wes will take good care of you and your bike. Of course that doesn't protect your from yourself... I f'ed up my jiffy stand spring loading it on the trailer. Easy fix though...
That bike sounds SUPERB! And I did feel it. I have super sub woofers in my speaker system...) The whole room shook!
I wanted a solo seat for just bopping around day to day, and saw someone else with a Brown Mustang seat. Couldn't help myself, so I ordered one. Of course the original seat is sitting in the garage, and is 5 minutes away from being installed, but the Brown gives a whole new flavor. I really kinda like the change.
