Hey all, bought my first HD in January. It's a 2006 XL1200L, with about 16,000 miles.
Here she is at the dealer before I brought her home.
I already changed the pipes, new wide tripper seat, put forwards on, and a new air cleaner. I cleaned rebuilt the carb with new gaskets, added the EZjust mixture screw and am in the process of laying down the license plate, and relocating the front turn signals. Here's some updated shots
First ride/start up with the new pipes

She still stumbles a bit just off idle. You can hear it stumble in this vid
Haven't changed the plugs or checked for intake leaks just yet. I was also told it might have something to do with me riding in 17* weather. It's my first Harley, I've only ever owned Japanese bikes and let me say I'm really excited to tear up the streets this summer!
