Hi All,

First, I want to say that this forum is great!! I've been reading posts for the past year while I was talking myself into stepping up to a CVO Ultra Classic. Now, my 2013 Typhoon Maroon SEUC is two weeks away. I've been scouring this site looking for ideas of what I'm going to want to do when it arrives.

So far, I'm having the dealer replace the stock exhaust with V&H Power Duals, V&H Twin Slash Round slip-ons, and they're adding a Super Tuner Pro kit? to set up the bike for the new exhaust, before I pick it up. I've ordered a George Anderson TourPak relocation plate, an Ultra-Brace to replace the TP tether, and Brukus saddlebag and seat security hardware to lock that stuff down.

This is only my second Harley (moving up from a 2011 Heritage) and I'm very much a rookie when it comes to knowing what I need to know. I would appreciate any suggestions, recommendations, or comments that will will help me enjoy my new bike.

Thanks,

Joe

Suspension, suspension, suspension!

Hi Stu,

I bought a CVO because it comes loaded and I wouldn't need anything else (at least that's what I told my wife ). It hasn't got here yet and I've spent about $2000. Oh well, I'm spoiled and I'm not afraid to admit it! I feel like a six year old waiting for Santa. I've been riding since the 70's and have never been this excited about a bike.

Hi tHunDer,

I was reading some threads about suspension upgrades last night. Definitely something on my radar. Thanks.

I hope you have a large balance in your checkbook because there are a lot of things you "NEED" for that bike!!

Hi tHunDer,

I did the same thing about 8 months and 10 grand ago...
P.S. My wife never believed me in the first place

My wife didn't believe me either. She was amazed at all the stuff I "needed" for my Heritage but, this time she knows better.

you have no idea what you are in for

That's funny stuff I told my wife the same thing, and she saw right through it!!!
