I added over $30000.00 to my 06 Ultra and than sold it last year. I love customizing my own bike.

I like the SE Ultra. Maybe better breathing and slip-ons for the future. For my height, I gotta watch the mods do that the pipes don't burn the calves.

stock did not reflect my look so some changes were mandated

Completely stock except for RJ Original heat shields. I bought it because it had the features I wanted.&nbsp\\; '07 UC with 8437 miles and loving it.

Stock? Heck, mine didn't even come "stock." There's always a few add-ons the dealer includes. I haven't done anything radical, but still added a chrome doo-dad here and there. New pipes, SERT, more bags, etc. I guess I just couldn't leave well enough alone. It may not be better than stock, but I like what I've done.

The MOCO could almost afford to give the bikes away IF we signed an agreement to buy ALL our accessories from them! Customizing is a sickness ALL Harley riders are afflicted with and that won't change anytime soon. In my mind, a totally unique Harley would be one left in as shipped condition.&nbsp\\; I don't believe I've ever seen one!

If you want to keep your HD stock do not get the HD catalog. I repeat do not get the HD catalog.

You obviously are aware of the heat issue. Instead of the mods you are looking at, or in addition to them, just richen up the air/fuel ratio slightly and your bike will perform better and run cooler.
&nbsp\\;
check www.nightrider.com&nbsp\\; or read Joe Minton's tech articles. Google American Rider magazine and read the articles on "hot" Harleys.
&nbsp\\;
Nothing wrong with a stock bike. Keep in mind, if everyone else customizes theirs, yours will be "one of a kind!"
