Hello, I just bought/ordered my 1st harley last Saturday. I bought the 08 Road King Classic with ABS,Two tone Pacific blu/Vivid blk.! It will come into the dealership sometime in March and I will get what extra parts I need the dealer to put on for me then. They will store it for me till I am ready to take it with this darn Chicago weather! I was reading about the power commander/racing tuner dilemma in the other posts..The dealer is pushing me towards the race tuner...which is a $450 part plus labor...Any feedback would be appreciated..Thanks Miss Lones

Also pushing me towards momba true duals...any opinion about those? I dont want loud obnoxious pipes..but a nice rumble so I can be heard..thanks~!
