Brake in should be about the same as a stock bike. Keep it around 50 (no constant speed) until around 100 miles then you can kick it up a bit but don't stay as a constant high speed. Don't go over 3000 rpm's. After you get around 500 miles on it you will own the road. Keep us posted on how it runs. I love my 95.

I just bought a demo 06 Road Glide with 1300 miles complete with Stage 1 and Python pipes. Bike runs well only get some "popping" on deceleration.

Thane,
I have to say that the yellow is looking "WOW". I really like it, welcome to the RG brotherhood.
Ed & William, welcome also.
