How'd she ride??

Hi Howie - hope you and yours had a great Thanksgiving!

Very nice! I did hear a noise while riding. Upon checking her more closely, I discovered the left saddlebag brackets were not adjusted properly. The rear pin was not engaged nor would it as it was off 1/2 inch. I have now gone over her top to bottom tightening as I go. I know better than to just jump on and ride but that's just what I did. Thankfully I did not have to pay for my ignorance, this time.

Needs a better headlight. Going to install a HD Halogen clear lens w/ reflector optics after talking with Jim (HDDude)
Found some BUB 7 TD on eBay cheap so there on the way also. I like that pipe. Good low end torque and great sound.

Hope enjoyed your Thanksgiving as well JW and that you thanked your Daughter for her service to our country for me!!!

Glad to read you didn't suffer the wrath of your premature excitement    and that everything is squared away on the new scoot. Also good to see the mods have already begun

JW,
  Did you use K&N #54092 or, some other?

She has a stage 1 AC plate on her. I replaced the Harley stage 1 filter with the KN-0800.
