Congrats on the new bike. You will thoroughly enjoy it. Keep it stock for a year and then put the Fuel Moto Power Pkg. on it. It will cool it down and bring it to life.

Cherry Red/Merlot, picked my '11 up last Friday night from H-DOG (HD of Greenville, SC). Rode the wheels off Saturday (in the 60's) and haven't been on it since. If I could only figure out how to get it in the house, so I could sit on it, or wax it, or just look at it! Found a great desktop background for it, attached the picture to the post.

Thinking of taking the Tour Pak off when wifey isn't riding. Haven't looked at it yet but hope it's a quick and easy 10 minute job.

Congrats on the new ride!! However, I'm green with envy, since it's still in the 30's here in DC with Ice and snow and mine (Thor) is warm and under cover in the garage. Got mine (11 Limited) in October.

I'm going to try an attach the desktop pic of mine that I found. you can add it to your collection. Welcome to the Family!!!

welcome to the forum and congratulations on your new bike. that blue with the vivid black has to look awesome. as far as tips, make sure your oil level is correct, your tires are at the right pressure, a full tank of gas, and just get out and ride.

Default 2010 FLHTK with @C Component 4 inch slip on's

So I have had my 2010 FLHTK limited for 8-9 months. I have slowly begun to do some mod's. the first thing was ride pegs. Then, I put an adjustable back rest. I never had one before and wonder how I ever did without it.

The newest change was a set of 4 inch RC Component slip on's. I didn't want anything too loud or to quiet. I looked a tons of them from the V&H to the Reinhardt, to the Rush. The RC's were about a $100.00 cheaper and they have made great wheels for a long time.

I am happy to say that I love them.

Pic's to follow soon.

I would be interested in a sound file. I'm looking at all the top brands and haven't made a decision yet. Did you change the tuner?
