You need to ride it and give us a first impression compared to stock.  Then tune it and give us another report.

Or, just tell Gabe to let me ride it.   :P

Tell Gabe to have a sandwich, or I'm sending over Sally Struthers!  :stickpoke:

Life is too short for drama or petty things, so laugh hard, love truly and forgive quickly. Live While You Are Alive. Forgive now those who made you cry. You might not get a second time.

the bike ran great, it does need to be ridden to get it broken in.  I asked David to ride it when ever he gets a chance, I figure it will be like a new motor, it will ride better as the 500 mile mark passes by.

Oh, okay!  That makes sense now, because all the other HD parts have already fallen off the bike...that HD horn would've been next!  :stickpoke:   :pot:    ;D
