Twolane, I've made it very clear (and she was glad I did) that this is her scoot and I will not do anything to it unless she asks or approves.
We'll start with a seat that moves her a bit forward. Got a windshield with the purchase (just like the photo without it).
Planning to put the HD mirrors with the integrated running light/turn signals as we agree, the bullet lites in front detract from the styling.
She wants different pipes. She likes the street sweepers but wants them to be quieter than the stock ones and that ain't gonna happen. The stock pipes on the Deuce are 3db louder than my V&H Q series pipes so we want to be that quiet or better. We want to be good neighbors.
Once we settle on the pipes, a saddlebag decision will be made. I think she likes the HD hard bags but the fitment on the SE bike is problematic because of the wide tire kit. I want them to be removable so we may have to get some sort of custom mount. I think they could look cool if the tops were black and the sides had the same blue/black theme with the red stripe. I am sure my buddy Lenny from Krazy Kolors would love to get his hands on them.
Got her the new HD oil temp/oil level gauge as she constantly wonders if her oil level is ok.
Putting on the Heat Deamons grip warmers and their utility plug for heated clothing/battery tender.
A few chrome covers and we should be good for a while.
