The add on aren't that bad, But when you start making horse power that's were it get nuts. The work I've done so fare scars the excrement out of me. The bike handles good to 110mph before the front end starts to lift. I sure like the way she gets to that point.
Don't be the odd man out make it yours. Power Is Cool

I have imposed one rule on myself...any new purchase has to be functional. Seems like every time I log on here I hear about or find something functional that I end up buying. Today it was lockable covers for my lowers. Tomorrow...who knows.

I also have a long list of things I'm keeping my eye out for.
I think the majority of us are afflicted but just don't care. Some need professional help!

Sounds awesome, can't wait for some riding weather!!!

It never stops. And just when I think I'm done I find something else that she needs.

Then it's not a waste of money on my bagger because that is EXACTLY why I bought it, so that I can see it.

Doesn't matter if new to you or new through time you will make some changes. Some of us are gunkies and do all sorts of things.
My problem is bikes and accessories. I have either bought or traded every year for many many years and did accessories on every one of them.
I finally bought a CVO street Glide which cut down on the purchasing on that bike.
Power is another problem area for me. I just do minor changes in the most part but at times I get a strong motor and get carried away. I will take it as far as it has potential.
