From what I understand, the standard warranty is 2 years, then you can purchase optional extended coverage, bringing it to a total of 5 years or 7 years (from date of purchase, regardless of mileage). I'll have to check into the wheels/tires and make sure that's part of the coverage. By that, do you mean like coverage against punctures, blowouts, etc?

If you go with a tour pak....think hard about getting the Chopped tour pak....it fits the lines of the bike alot better. Mine is on order. The razor is VERY small...the chopped is the perfect size for a Streetglide.
Winsdscreen? I like my 8.5" Kockwerks alot
Lower fairings. Some like them, some don't....I LOVE mine....that and some lower fairing "wings" killed ALL wind buffeting.
You can buy all of this Harley stuff at Lake Shore Harley (www.lshd1.com) for about 20% off. I have saved HUNDREDS going through them. Get the part #'s and price check it with them. If you spend enough, the shipping is free....if not, shipping is usually 10 bucks.
Later down the road, SE 255 cams in these bikes make a night and day difference.

I put a tour pack on my SG with a luggage rack and a LED brake light. I thought the brake light under the luggage rack along with the existing SG brake lights would work well enough. What I found is that cagers, when they see a tour pack, expect it to have lights. More than a few times I almost got rear-ended when stopping. The luggage rack angles down in a way that car drivers really can't see the brake light during the day. I had to add lights to the tour pack. I don't know what options for light the chopped pack has. JMHO.

Reilandlaw read this thread it involves a ESP claim rejected cause of a power commander. One of the posts lists a section of the contract the esp folks are hanging their hat upon. https://www.hdforums.com/forum/touri...knowledge.html
Also, the chopped tour pack looks real nice but I find that I run out of space real fast with my king tour pack.

Congrats.....if this is your first big bike don't make very tight slow turns. You could go over until you get the feel for this bike. If your not new to this bike sorry for putting my 2 cents in.....good luck, congrats, and enjoy...
