Well, I finally did it... I have been debating this purchase for a couple years, and finally pulled the trigger.. I just bought myself a 2009 Ultra Classic... Now, I need some advice as to where to start buying the aftermarket parts... Exhaust, I want something to give it a good rumble, but not ear drum damage... I want to be able to still here the stereo. Etc.. If I get slip-Ons do you recommend the tuning box..? I want new hand grips and the luggage rack yet this year..

Thanks.. Yes, I only have a few hundred miles on it, but man what a difference. I came from a 1998 VT1100c Shadow Spirit to this.. No comparison.. I will post some questions in the touring forum and also do some searches. I see I have to also take some time and build a profile on this site..
