I managed to get my hands on a 2004 Road Glide that was built by a local Harley Dealer back in 2004 to be a unique machine. See pic of the plaque the PO made from the article about the bike back then. The PO had not taken care of it so I'm going to bring it back to its former glory (and then some).
It was built with White Brothers exhaust and since then someone along the way installed Rinehart True Duals. I know White Bros was sold to V&H in 2008 so wondering if any of you have experience with the V&H Pro Pipe. I am going to go 2-into-1 and I think it'll be either the V&H or Bassani Road Rage. Any others I should seriously consider?
It has Axtell 120(?) heads and a Baker 6-speed among all of the other work of course. It's going to be fun to have this thing back to its former rowdy self.
Love that paint. Super clean graphics and colors. Honestly D&D is the only exhaust I'd put on a performance build.
While you're at it, ditch that seat setup like yesterday! That frumpy thing looks like it was made for somebody 5' tall.
Ha, for sure. It is quite rough at the moment. He had also put a tour pack on there with cracked quick release levers and docking point bushing gone. Amazed it even stayed on. It went from a huge standout bike at the time with 120 hp + 121 ft lbs then was neglected by someone for a very long time. Clearly sat out in the sun and elements then flogged into service as a 2-up rig.
These are a few pics right after I put it in line with my other bikes. It’s going to be fantastic when I’ve got it done.
