Cool, looks like I'll be saving up a little longer for the full package.

Will the upgrade make the bike run cooler?

[mjb765]

Nice bike i feel sorry for you having to tolerate nearly 80 degrees though can you tell me what its like i can`t remember, i have good knowledge of 45 though.

Enjoy

[dustingaunder]

Thanks, lol.  It is in the low 80s today but windy as hell.

Purchase the baffles and TTS mastertune from Steve at fullsac and he will provide you with a dynoed map he made from bikes he has had in his shop with the same mods as you.

This is good advice and often what many of the riders here have done.  I'll be one of them when I have a bike to do it with.

The nice addition to the mastertune is that if you are remotely computer savy you can utilize the V-tune feature of the mastertune software.  Hook up a laptop to your bike and dyno it yourself.  Not really needed if you only make the Fullsac Mods, but if you want to dial the bike in closer to what it should be than you have the option.  Also if you make any changes later to the bike you can do your own dyno tuning.  There are extensive articles written on the subject on this site.  Steve Cole of Mastertune is a member of this site and Steve George of Fullsac is as well.  They are both very helpful.

Sweet.  You guys made my mind up.  2" baffles, catectomy, TTS Mastertune from Fullsac. 

More pics to tickle your fancies.  I just got done waxing her up.  Found another chip and a scratch that I didn't cause while doing it.  The chip is on the right side panel at the very front point.  I expect it to be replaced as it was chipped then clear coated over the chip.  The original chip on the fairing will probably get the touch up and the new scratch is inside the speaker well on the right side.  I'll probably ignore that one.  It is hard to see, but it looks like a little wax left over that won't wipe off.

Yes, the rear reflector at least will be getting the axe.  I just need to get motivated to do it.  I've been too busy riding it to care.

What's your opinion of getting the new J&M speakers and there amp set up instead?

I did the J&M 7.25" speakers without adding an amp.  I'm very pleased.  Loud and clear at 80 plus with tunes thru my iPhone (mounted in a Riders Claw of course).

Lookin' Good what cleaners are you using?

If you want REAL Harley sound, I would suggest Freedom Racing Duals, they are loud but not so loud it is obnoxious, they just sound good, and it actually sounds like a 110!

I use Mother's products only.  I've always used Mother's on my vehicles and have always been happy so I've never switched, lol!

Got my 8" recurve from Clearview today.  It went in in a matter of a couple minutes and I took it for a test ride.  WOW!!!  I can't believe I didn't get that before I got the bike.  The wind was blowing about 20 mph out of the south and gusting to 30 and when I was riding north at 60-70 it felt like I was cruising in town at 35 or so compared to the stock screen.  Heading back south at 70-75 it compared to about 55 with no wind with the old screen.  I ordered one of the blemished screens that was in stock and the blemish was exactly where and how they described and nothing more.  It ended up saving me $20 and no wait.  I got the darkest tint they offer and it looks great on the bike.  Not as stylish as the 4", but worth the sacrifice in looks for the improvement in the ride.  Thanks a ton Clearview!!

Oh, quality is much better than the stock screen as well.  Those Clearview guys know what they're doing.

Sounds great, but we have no pic of it???

[dustingaunder]

I'll get a pic tomorrow or the next day.  I got it on then decided to get the mower and weedeater running.  Once I got both of them tuned up I decided to get the yard mowed before the weather rolled in late tonight and tomorrow.  Then I ran out of daylight...DOH!

[dustingaunder]

250 miles with the new screen today....all I can say is WOW!!!
