Hey Flip, congrats! Loved my Softail (2010 Deluxe) but on October 23rd, I did the opposite. I traded my Softail for a new 2012 Road Glide Custom. Enjoy the ride!

I will be adding shield and detachable backrest/rack, Rush slipons, and maybe crashbar.
I read it too fast and thought you said you were going to add a "cashbar"! Now that would be a good way to pay for it! Congrats on the new ride.
