Default Hi all,
I've been reading your forum for a while, and I finally caved in and bought me a 2005 Softail Deluxe.

I love the bike, looks the way I always imagined my Harley (And that will keep the need for customizing to a minimum?! Yea right.., I know.......!)

I'm a migrated Norwegian in Tampa, Florida, which is Great!!! I Can Ride all year!! And no need for a snow blower

I'm attaching a picture of my bike, hope you like it!!

By the way, does anybody have Dyno results for this setup? Seems plenty powerful for me, but just curios.

2005 FLSTNI Softail Deluxe
Stage 1 Kit (download) SE Double Barrel
