Put Vance and Hines slip ons on mine. Will get a better seat for the wife but stock is good to go for me. I did remove the hideous tank decal that matched nothing on the bike with its 80's fugly font. Much cleaner look now.

I'm waiting for mine to come in but i am compiling a list which so far includes but is not limited to:

V&H Monster Oval's (and maybe Power Duel's undecided)
Sat Radio Unit
Chrome Lowers & axel nut covers
Hidden Antenna
New Grips
Saddle Bag Guards (powder coated to match red sunglo)
4 point Docking Hardware
Solo luggage Rack
Corbin Seat/w backrest (already ordered)
Curved license plate frame
saddle bag wall organizer

The longer it takes for my SGS to arrive the longer this list may become lol

They're black Screaming Eagle heat shields.

Gone down the modification road with my 2002 Fat Boy (which I still ride). Heads reworked, gear drive cams, Mustang seat, different bars and on and on.
Had a Switch new 2013 Switchback. Rode it for a little over 600 miles and determined that it wasn't the bike for me. After I'd swapped out the speedo for an upgrade and added a full Bassani exhaust and Roland Sands Designs air cleaner.
Swapped that one for a 2008 Ultra Classic. Added another RSD air cleaner and Bassani slip ons. That really wasn't the bike for me either. But I did keep the RSD air cleaner and have it for sale on the local CL to try and recoup at least a little of my money.
Now I've got a new 2014 Street Glide. It's got the Bassani slip ons that were on the Ultra. I like the sound and the performance of the 103 Rushmore with stock air cleaner suits me just fine. I'm done throwing money and tuning and messing around. It's where it needs to be for me.

I am still on the fence with the stock seat. It seems to be as good as my Sundowner but I have no *** to begin with. Always find myself squirming a little no matter what seat I have used over the years. Put my Rush Big Louie's with 2 1/2" baffles on the new limited. Being a smoker I do miss not having a cig lighter but it is what it is for now. No plans on adding anything else at this time.

Changed mufflers after 20 miles stock sounds funny to me. I have stage 1 ready to go on waiting for Power vision update. I hope that wakes it up a little more. And like most have a list of "stuff"
