Talking HDforums & HD manual = Priceless!

So far the list of things getting changed out,
All my stuff should be here Tuesday!

Khrome werks +2 Sweepers,
Speakers for the fairing
PC3 USB
Rush 3.5 slip ons
new gaskets
Ness stage 1 intake
badlander seat
license plate mount (removed my tour pak)
V thunder lifters
Had the heads inspected/refreshed too.
New break pads all around.
Oil change (that's just a given)

Should make for a great summer of riding this year!

Know the best thing? if I would of taken the bike in to be fixed I would of spent all that $$$ on labor alone.

Moral of the story HD forums & a HD manual = priceless!

Yup, I did the SE cam plate upgrade already! yup I knew what you were thinking. Still on the fence about the TW6 cam I have sitting around. Right now the cams are stock.

Plus on that! This forum has been great in helping me with projects from the simple like changing the exhaust to the complex like tips for removing my inner fairing. And if there is ever a problem with your bike just post a question here - you'll find your not alone and can save a bundle by reading the replies!

I agree it takes both. I would still be trying to figure out how to install my auxiliary lamps without each.

Couldn't agree more. This forum (as well as the manual) is priceless. I'm certainly not the greatest wrench but I like to work on my own bike. I just installed monotubes on my 11 UC and even though I've had the ignition out several times I had issues getting it back together. All I had to do was find the video of the ignition install and he doesn't just show you how to uninstall/install....he shows you how to fix it after you've screwed up.

Great folks and great advice here.

-Carl
