Well the parts are rolling in but still nothing to install them on until next month sometime. :-\ I've received my windshield, riders backrest, highway peg mounts for the crash bars, matching floorboards for my BSR, 4 point docking hardware, Kuryakyn curved license plate frame and mount, (which need to go to powdercoat) and the lower triple tree wind diffuser.

Any updates from anyone else? gpopvet? Nice bars Dave. I'll eventually be putting another set on the new bike. Mike? Anything new to share?

What pipes and tuner are you guys thinking about?

Thanks again everyone for all of your input, especially Mike & Dave

Lets see those mods!!

Fullsac cores in the factory mufflers is the most popular choice on this site.  You have three size baffles to choose from 1.75, 2.00 and 2.25.  They also performed better than most slip-ons for a fraction of the cost.  I have the Fullsac 2.25 on my bike did on my last five CVO's and are on my CVO King.

Fullsac also makes head pipes that go under the stock heat shields.  I have the Fullsac MX head pipe at home waiting for me to install and then tune the bike.  I'm offshore working for the next 21 days.

I have run his head pipe on my previous CVO's.

I use the TTS tuner as do many on here.

That is my plan as well Dave. I have Steve's X pipe "B" and TTS and originally had the 2.25 cores/baffles since 2011 then switched to a set of Crusher slip ons which really work well with my current 113 build but are not available (except for the Mavericks) for the M8s. Just haven't pulled the trigger yet.

Thanks

I recently found out that instead of a November delivery my new bike isn't slated to leave the plant until December 1st.  :-\  So I guess I get to live vicariously through you guys and your upgrades and experiences with your new 18s for at least another month.

Thanks for sharing!

I do not think I could handle being bike less for a month let alone 3 months or more.

If I go 2weeks without riding I get very grumpy. When my son was playing college football I would jump on a plane every Friday and go wherever he was playing (he played for Central Missouri outside KC) and come back Sunday night which would keep me off a bike for the entire season. Of course I loved watching him play and like any dad was crazy proud of him but as I was chasing him all over the midwest in a rental car and a bike would pass me it would kill me..

...waited 8 years (since the electric orange '09) for Harley to peg the meter with the right shark color/features combo (for me)..another 5-6 weeks is a piece of cake. Took me all of a couple hours to switch from disliking "industrial" gray to ordering one. First non metal flake CVO.

Sure enjoying the mod pics and pm info from some of you guys.

There is a very slight amount of metal flake in the Gunship and looks much better when you see it in person.
What part of the country are you in? I'm about 30 miles north of Seattle but still get to ride a little here and there this time of year weather permitting.

I had the Silver/Titanium 09 and loved it, but to me the best color ever on the CVO Road Glide was the White Gold and black skunk.  Never had a bike that got more complements than my Skunk.  Only bike I got sick to the stomach when I traded it.

When I saw the Dealer show live video feed, I could not believe they even considered the Gunship Gray a CVO.  Said only fool would spend 41K on that bike.

Then I saw them unload it from the truck, in the bright sun and fell in love with the Gunship Gray.  I have also seen the dark earth and vivid black, which is sharp in the sun but I do not like it as well.

I am shock at the number of people that just love this bike and color.  Its getting almost as many complements as my skunk did.

Ample riding days in North Central Texas. It's a quick jump to SE Oklahoma & on in to Arkansas. Colorado and New Mexico are my favorites though.

I haven't seen gunship live yet...pleased to hear it has a tad of spark in the paint.

Well I just checked in with my dealer to see if he had an update for me on my new Shark's delivery date and it looks like it payed off. Delivery is expected in 2 weeks!! Now I'm getting excited. My current bike got there within one week of this one back in 2010. So it goes back to it's originating dealer almost 7 years to the day.

The countdown is on!

My new Road Glide got here a week early!!! Picked it up today and now I'm stuck at work till 9pm PST. It rides awesome, I can't wait to get home tonight and ad some goodies to it.  :drummer:
I must say it seems much more responsive bone stock than my 2011 did with the 110 tc and sounds better stock as well, but of course all of that will change with time (and money).

I'll get some pic's out within the next couple of days. We had a little break in the weather today fortunately but it looks like its back to the wet stuff tomorrow.  :-\
