RE: Just Arrived
Wow - Thanks for the hearty welcome. Lets see if I can get a picture posted here
So far it has been a great ride. I have added a couple of mods since the pic. I changed over to bullet style turn signals and LED's all around. Put in the stage one kit, a pair of SE 203 cams and the SE touring slip ons. More than adequate for my style of touring. I added the HB-125 hydraulic chain tensioner. a bit pricey, but it did smooth out shifting and slightly less shake at idle. There is always something more!!
Safe riding to all and again thanks for the welcome.

RE: Just Arrived
Welcome Tom,
Get out your wallet and sew your pocket closed cause you ain't gonna need it. How do you like the new cams and how much difference did they make.
That is one sweet ride. Love the color. I've ordered the Kuryakyn Panacea L.E.D.'s all the way around for my Roadglide and should have them by the end of the month. Check with M&M Cycle for parts. We have a group buy listed under the Classified Section that gives us around a 30% discount plus however much tax you pat. I saved over $80.00 on my L.E.D.'s.
Stick around a let us help you customize that sweet Ultra.

P.S. If you have any questions about the group buy PM me or Pilot for info.

RE: Just Arrived
Terry,
Thanks to you and everyone for the welcome and the compliments. I strongly reccommend the three steps of Stage one air and re-map, some type of performance muffler, and the 203 cams. It definitely woke the sleeping dog. I know there are lots of hipo options out there, but for the cost, this is a major inprovement over the stock setup. It is very much felt in the lower and mid range. Roll on with two up to pass is very improved. As is general smoothness around town and on country roads. For touring it's a good conservative combination. I still have the HD valve clatter to work on. I changed all the bearings, cam chain tensioners and new stock lifters. It is pretty constant, hot or cold. Does get louder as the revs go over 3k. I may try a set of Jim's powerglide lifters. Any thoughts?
Safe rides to all. Careful - it's June bug season.
