Gettin closer , have just had " she who must be obeyed " give the O.K. for new bike . Have a tourer exhaust question . Slip ons , or go full exhaust to remove cats from headers . It,s something I have to decide as I want dealer to fit .
Ordered 1 , it,s on the boat , get him around Dec . Might go Vance and Hines full system .
Another option would be to go with a Fullsac system. It retains the existing heatshields and does away with the cat and the silly valve at the end. With the mufflers it requires a bit of cutting but they still look stock but the cores are changed out. Sounds damn nice too.
No set date yet , waiting waiting .Probably bite the bullet and go V&H power duals with monster rounds . Just want the whole package when I pick it up .
Hoping to China .Finish work Dec 6 , want to pick up bike on the 7th , put a thou or so kms on him during week , service 12th or 13th , ready to go Sat 14th . That,s the plan .Fingers crossed .
great bike, once im off the dyna, this will be my next buy

Vance and Hines full system , on order .
Already have 1st service booked for next Thurs , then off to Snowys for a ride , around 3000kms .
I hear these "SleepGlides" leak a lot of oil?
This bike is awesome . Rides so sure footed .1st bike with stereo and I love it , cruising our twisty hills roads with music is really cool . Tried a 7" curved screen yesterday , but am unsure whether better than stock , felt some buffeting at times . Waiting for saddlemen to make pannier lid covers for the 14,s , so have to be careful swinging leg over .Optioned rear crash bar just in case ! Am fitting rear foot boards and putting the rear pegs on front crashbar for highway pegs . May do a boom box upgrade for the amp and louder speakers .Hope the missus doesn,t read this . Exhaust sounds great , and I removed reflectors from fork legs after this shot .
oh very nice timmy should suit your tired old ass but yes i like it so are you a grand dad ????????????????????????
Thanks guys , growing old disgracefully ! Punted through the hills with AC/DC today! Cheers for the tips .
Clocked up over 5000km in 2 weeks , 3700km on our Snowy Run . Best bike I,ve owned . Cruising in a lounge chair , cruise on , and scanning radio or ipod tunes with the touch of a toggle on the handle bars . Spent a few hours coming home yesterday listening to the cricket , scanning different stations as moving through the countryside . Riding through the Snowys and Vic alps , the steering is a lot quicker than my Superglide . Found myself tipping in too early and having a few bites at corners . Have to learn to go into corner deeper, before turning in . Left Adelaide at 1600km and arrived back 5300km . As soon as I pulled up at lights , the motor sounded so " cammy " , really lumping over . I,ll see if Action can load sound . The rear shocks are not air now and performed really well , no need to change .Didn,t scrape footboards or anything the whole trip . Will post up Snowy Run pics on the interstate rides thread later .
Are you still thinking about upgrading the sound system?
