Very Niiiice! Enjoy the Keys and the ride along the 7-mile Bridge...If you're in luck, you may still be in time to grab some fresh Stone Crabs.

Yes it deffinatly get the attention, stopped at orlando HD south and I think everybody that worked there except for 2 of the t shirt girls went out to check it out. One of the salesman asked me as I walkin in "that's sharp, is that the new apple green color they came out with?" :nixweiss: 

We were in disney for my nieces cheerleading competition and much to my suprise orlando Harley had a store there. They had two bikes in the window that just about every foreign tourist was sittin on and takin pictures. I was thinkin, man I hope nobody decides to get a photo op on mine!

Had a great stay down in the keys and got some good riding in! Unloaded in orlando with 31 miles on her and after comin back through the everglades and up to ft Myers where I had to load back up, ended up with 1260 miles. Wish I could've rode longer, but it was my turn to drive the truck. :trailer:   Oh well, back to the hills of KY!

Im fairly new to this air cooled beast that is the 110 (I've been used to a vrod), but is it normal for my right leg to be on fire after sitting at a couple stoplights? I know considerable heat is to be expected, but man it gets warm fast. Never rode anything bigger than a 96 before, so I don't know how to judge it.  I have the fullsac x-pipe and hi outputs with a tune Installed too. :nixweiss:

I had the same issue.  Even my BSR said wow this thing is hot.  Gutted the cat and it was night and day better.  Good luck, beautiful bike.

[I am a bit surprised to hear you say( if I am reading this right ) that your bike is still really hot with the x pipe, open mufflers and tuner. Mine is not and is drastically different than it was stock. The x pipe is ceramic coated from fullsac and I don't think you should be getting real noticeable heat from the motor anymore. --------By the way, gorgeous bike.

Yep. It gets warm during a ride, but not too bad hot. After sitting at a few traffic lights tho, it gets almost unbareably hot and I guess shuts down one cylinder cause it starts kinda loping. Never rode it stock. Had the pipes switched as soon as it got home.

I think you should give Steve at Fullsac a call ----------I don't think this is normal after the mods you have installed. When I bought all my same stuff from him I spoke with him a long time about this very issue and he told me his bikes almost never use the rear cylinder "off " mode(forget what it is really called). Maybe your program didn't download right . It is possible and the call won't cost anything. I would at least check it out. Once again--------I sure do like your Krypto!!!!
