When I got my 19 the gps and touch screen was a requirement if I purchased. It does well enough for me. I just look at it why pay for something and block it if I can change something and still see both.

Mines an 18 special with GPS...Its just OK. The 19+ is much better I think.
it usually gets me to the area but not the exact spot I wanted lol. I do use my phone a lot but if its far away Ill use the bike GPS most of the day and switch to the phone once I get close. Its def not needed but since I have it I figure I wont block it if I dont need to.

Not much of a performance issue.... but I took the new wheels to get the tires mounted after finally getting the Chopper Hauss rotors mounted. And because the shop owner was having other items powder coated, he asks if I wanted to send my pully off to be powder coated. UH...DUH! Should be done by Friday. An unexpected upgrade. Can hardly wait. It's going to look so good. These wheels and brakes are one of the last upgrades I'll be doing for a while. The other is a new tuner and tune after the cam job. Then I should be done for a while. Hahahaha Ya right.

Like Gartec I went with the stock dyna street bob tubes up front and no issues with the lower lines for me personally.

@Puglia10 the top end is a 3/4 hex. At least it was for mine which is a 2016.

@gartec81 I just got my SDC, love it so far but maybe you can answer a question for me? What is the pin in the backrest for? I haven't used it yet but I'd like to try it out this weekend. Thanks

Blown head gasket was the culprit
