Congrats Chip, I'm sure you will enjoy. Only real thing that bothered me when I owned my last wing was not may options of thing to do to customize like the Harleys. But it sure makes them cheaper to own. You will need some air horns on it so people can hear you coming.

Chip, Great looking bike! The blue or the yellow are the only two colors I would consider in the wing. Honda has nailed it on the best most comfortable touring bike but it is just to quiet for me. You can tell by the way the bodywork flows down the side of the bike that it is well made. I have always been scarred to ride one for fear that I would not want to ride the Harley any more. Congrats and I hope it doesn't ruin you on the Harleys.

It's a little too quiet for me also.
But I have a fix in the works but have been sworn to secrecy about what it is.

Don't worry, no way the Harley's are going.
I will always have a few of those.

No issues with not customizing the Wing. Just need to clean up some lose ends and it will be done.

Yep a friend of ours that Markey and I ride with from time to time he put on what he called his "Harley Dump".  A valve that open up the headers from going through the mufflers. Sounds kinda Kool.  :2vrolijk_21:

Heard a Honda Valkyrie on Main street Sturgis in the late '90s with what looked like gatling gun exhaust.  Looked cool and as they were basically straight pipes, sounded like an open header stock car.  Woke the street up everytime he rode down it.
The 1800 is a different animal but bet it would sound sweet with something similar to that.....looking foward to seeing/hearing what you have planned for ol' blue wing, Chip....

Chip,

Here is the baddest exhaust style made for a 1800 Wing Gatling Gun style and they sound like an Indy car.  Can also be had in black for the stealth look.
