I believe the street glides might not have been out even when your bike was built. It's the classic. If it was out, not long.

Relocating coil away from heat might be good. I have gone through coils.

Any engine work?

Default Tuner question.
Any of you guys using tuners and if so what kind/brand? I need to tune it with the new breather and exhaust but it doesn’t have the o2 bungholes and I’m not having them installed. Any suggestions?

Your build sure looks cool! Congrats.

Regarding tuners you are going to hear Dyno Jet Power Vision and Fuel Moto a lot. Lifetime map support If you buy the tuner from them and your device will shoe up with a baseline map installed.

Again, killer build and thanks for sharing.
