Hello from IA. I have a 2012 Street Glide in the Tequila Orange, traded my 2005 Fatboy LTD last September for it. I miss my fatty, but really enjoy the SG (no issues with the voltage regulator at 6,000 miles). I'm not much of a "gearhead", so local "motorcycle guru-(who is a really great guy)" mentioned this site for info. I have been reading some posts over the last week, and it he was right, seems like a lot of knowledgeable and honest group of guys to learn from. I'm not much of a computer guy either, so not sure how to post current upgrades on my info/icon but, I will work on it. My current plans are to upgrade the front wheel to a 21-inch or 19-inch wheel from Renegade (getting the a/c to match the front wheel as well; I was leaning towards the 21, but after reviewing some posts, gonna probably go with the 19-inch. I stand 69-inches tall, and don't want to give up any seat to ground clearance. My Fatty had been lowered and had the sundowner seat, so the SG really takes some of my footing away. I still have plenty of solid footing, just not as much as with the Fatty. Also, I don't want to get into the front end supension, 21-inch causing the front to rise up, if I go with the 19-inch, then no worries. I'm leaving the rear wheel stock for now can't justify the $$$ to my better half
I'm also looking into the TTS tuner, Woods 555, directional lifters, and the DnD boss but, (after reading some of the posts here) the Fullsac has gotten my attention too. Problem here is-all the local HD shops around here only use Power Commander, and claim the TTS is no good, or they never heard of it! Anyway this is where I'm at, and why I'm here. I'm not much of a thread starter, more of a reader and PM guy, so there you go.
