Arrived Black Crimson
« on: April 09, 2011, 06:34:16 AM »


So my bike finally arrived at the dealer and I picked it upand did a 1200 km weekend trip to run it in down the south coast and across the high country.

First impressions are very good , I never thought I would enjoy the music when riding but hey I was wrong , its great to hear while im blasting along.
The screen provides good protection with a little buffeting on the helmet but overall im very happy.

Only problem so far is there are no more Vance and Hines High Outputs left in Australia, unfortunatly the dealer priced them in the deal so I cant get a refund I just have to wait.... I  already have the Power Duals that i had shipped in from the USA...  The dealer is trying to get me to take the Monster Rounds  but i really had my mind set on the High Outputs ... Any opinions on the Monster Rounds???

Next thing im doing is having a Tour Pack painted to match for the long trips  ..

I phone  photo of the bike at the dealers,  I was too busy riding to take photos.

I hear ya brother, pictures just cannot show what it really looks like. I notice the passing lights.......nice. You should also concider the chrome back covers (with LEDs) for the mirrors....they look real nice.  :2vrolijk_21:

Welcome to the site from Colorado.  I have the Monster Rounds on mine and like them, BUT, as stated before, put on it what you want.  Since the exhaust was part of the deal, I wonder why the dealer didn't have any for your bike when it arrived?

Nice bike. I have the same one in the same color. Was looking at the Vance & Hines High Output and Monster Rounds with both the Power Duals and Dresser Duals. Also the Reinheart Classic Duals.  Also looked at the TTS MasterTuner, and Power Commander-V. Just ordered the D&D 2-1 FatCats with the Thunder Max Tuner. Ride your bike a while, do your home work and then get what you want. Your dealer can always give you store credit on buying something and sell the V&H H.O. to someone else when they come in.
