2006 Daytona Street Glide (vivid black), 75 bhp. with air kit, pcIII custom map and Hard Krome t-rex true duals (they rock)! Runs perfect from idle to max, an absolute pleasure to ride with riders backrest, Kuryakyn cruise boards and brake pedal. Tried Sundowner seat which put me too close to the tank cutting down on leg room (6'3"). Replaced stock fender with street stalker, suits the bike. 11" windscreen better for longer trips, higher speeds. Having the inner fairing painted metallic orange to compliment graphics. Detachable docking hardware for passenger backrest and chrome switches were no fun to install. Also have streamliner shift pegs and x2 grips to match. I like the headlight visor, cylinder bridge covers and engine/trans interface. Had fork lock replaced. Have 5000 kms so far and could not be happier with the bike, you know...the feeling. Have done all my own service so far. Do not waste good cash on factory downloads, they only disappoint.

Welcome!! Glad you found the forum. That is a sharp bike, but aren't you gonna do some work on it??

Serioulsy, I like the look, and I think the direction you're going will be sweet! Post pics when you do the inner fairing, I'd like to see that one.

Enjoy the ride.

finned cylinder bridge covers fit over the plugs and match the finish of your cylinders, cover plugs and head bolts, give the left side a finished look. $50.00
