Thumbs up Making it mine.
The final UPS truck arrives tomorrow.
Time to make this bit bagger my own.

2012 road glide, 23 k miles- 3k by me over the last 4 weeks.

Added a tour pack for the old lady to enjoy- nice having a trunk.
Installed new day maker kit last weekend- amazing difference!
Installed stage 1 with a D&D Fatcat 2:1 and Thundermax tuner

Starting Sunday morning:
Adding lowers with Focal 6.5 and a Rockford amp.
Adding 21" front wheel, black wheel/hub with fat spokes

And best of all adding a Fuelmoto 107" with level B heads and 777 cams. Upgrading to the fueling high output oil pump while I'm in there.
Screaming eagle clutch springs too.

Thanks to Fuelmoto for great service and quick turnaround.

I will be done by next weekend. Going to take one more ride tomorrow the way it is while the weather is good.

Pics will prove it.

what "wrong forum"? A Road Glide is certainly a touring class bike. OP, looks good.
