Hey Guys-

New guy here, and seems like a great source for info about everything. Bought an 06 Street Glide a couple of weeks ago. It has V&H 2 into 1 and a 1550 big bore kit. I am not really sure how to tell what, if any, air cleaner upgrades there are. Does not sound like it has any cam upgrade either. Anyone have any suggestions on what cam/air filter/programmer (if needed) is a good fit to go with these other modifications? thanks

Brian

Welcome! My suggestion is to ride it for a while (5-10,000 miles) and let the bike tell you what, if any, further modifications it needs.

I would agree with riding a bit before tearing into it. Learning the characteristics of the bike is the first step. The bike will act differently at different times of the year (hot & cold weather).
