Black Forks and Cans up Front ..



Painted Inner Fairing and Ignition Bar while doing this also changed to a LRS 8" Ultra Shield and swapped out the Air Temp Gauge for an Oil Temp ..





Freedom True Duals with Python Slip Ons and K&N High Flow Air Filter ..



SE 255 Cams which rounded the Power nicely off until do a rebuild and then may go more radical on Cams ..

So why would you even chime in?

My '04 has highway cams, high flow air cleaner, supertuner, true duals w/Wild Pig Pipes 2" baffles and a hydraulic clutch. Hyperlites brake light strobes and Motolight driving lights. All my $$$ have gone for modest performance increases and safety. I'm still trying to pay the sucker off, so the bling will have to wait.

Thanks! they are made by Tailgunner, the same company that makes the rotary cannons. I liked the look of them and wanted something a little different when the chrome started peeling off the screamin' eagles that I had on there. They don't sound bad either, nice deep rumble down low, but at highway speeds, they don't deafen everybody (or the wife) around. lol
