Sounds like a sweet bike. Did you ever hear anything on your pipes? Any tracking info?

They have to be close. Mine showed up about a half hour ago. With your bike going to Dynojet, I wish you had gotten yours first. Did you ever check out your injectors? Mine is going in on Tuesday for replacement to the 25s. I would like to know which you have so I know which injectors the map for the t-rex pipes will be once it gets posted on their site.

You'll stop spending money on accessories the day AFTER you sell your bike.

Wanna save money? Just think about it like this -- everything looks good in the catalog, but not everything looks good on the bike - --

Keep it simple, don't fall into the HD trap of gotta have more more more! Too much makes it look, well, like a moving catalog!

bolt on Acc. I am pretty much done. just black forks and black uppers to go. Then what i might do with the controls, stay black or chrome them. That will depend on how they look when i get the wheels.

I can only hope that your dealer is giving you some discounts. My dealer in AZ does not give any discounts. So, I now order all my HD products from Hale's HD in Ohio. They'll give you 20% off MSRP on any part, accessory, or motorcloth item. Shipping is reasonable, but no tax! Save some $$$$.


ORIGINAL: vegashd

After I went to the HD dealership and picked up the down payment for my mods I will be doing i decided i had better not wait to long.

I started with smoked turn sginal lenses from day one.

Since then I have added,

Skull collection:
Hand grips
Derby cover
Timing cover
Floorboards
Brake pedal
heel and toe shifters
consol inlay

I have waiting:
PCIII
SE intake kit

I have on order:
T rex true Duals


Gee does this ever end?

I am pretty sure once I do my 21/18 wheel combo i will be installin black forks and black upper cover. I want to be sure I like the black on chrome look.

Not to bad of a start
