Default Traded my Heritage this weekend

Traded it for a 2007 Road King Custom with only 680 miles. So far I love it! It's a quite a change from the Heritage, but I like everything about it so far. As soon as I got it home I installed the stage 1 kit (SE AC, Fuelpak, and CFR slip ons). I LOVE the sound of the CFR slip ons and now it runs great. Anyway, here are some pics.

Nice bike. Love the color. It's hard to beat a King. Enjoy. So how much better does it ride than the Heritage?

Thanks everybody!

Bigskyhd, CFR stands for Cary Fass Racing. You can check them out here. I listened to 4 different slip ons at the dealer before I chose the CFR's. They are the deapest sounding slip ons I've ever heard. A gear head buddy of mine heard the bike and thought it was a big block chevy! They're a little pricey comparred to other slip ons, but they were by far my favorite.

The difference is like night and day. This bike is so smooth and handles better than any bike I've ever rode. I'm really digging the 96 inch motor too. It's amazing how much quicker this is compared to my Heritage.
