    I can do $140 for the rear. If that works let me know and we can find a time to meet.

    Vance and Hines

    With the baffles in it's pretty quiet. It's nice to have options when you install.

    …almost traded my bagger in for a TC. The numbers just don’t work.

    My local dealer has new Bagger models as low as $18,900 (and that's out the door price), so $15,000 for a used one doesn't seem like a bad trade offer. The dealer has to mark it up some to make it worth their while and they can't charge as much for a used one as a new one. If everyone was...

    Key FOB

    You will get a key in addition to the fob that can operate the bike if the fob is lost or damaged. There is a spot under the seat where it can be used. There is a thread or three here on it. Sadly, you only get one fob and a second one is over $300.

    Vance & Hines R18 mufflers for sale ** SOLD **

    They are for the base model R18. I believe the Bagger and Transcontinental use a different mounting bracket.

    R18 oil leak

    I looked at mine today and I have the same thing in the same place, but the kickstand side. A single drip, not enough to be a concern, but I cleaned it and will be keeping an eye on it.

    Vance & Hines R18 mufflers for sale ** SOLD **

    For sale is one pair of Vance and Himes mufflers for the R18. I bought these after my bike was hit because I couldn't stomach the $2,700 for replacement fishtails. Since then I found a set of used fishtails and decided I like the look of them better. Used for 500 miles and in perfect shape...

    LITHIUM BATTERY RECOMMENDATION

    Longevity is one reason- I rarely get more than 3 years out of conventional batteries and the Lithium battery I put in my V-Rod was still working after 8 years when I sold it. More cost up front but if you are going to keep a bike long term it saves hassle down the road.

    LITHIUM BATTERY RECOMMENDATION

    I'm running a Shorai on my 1200 GSA and ran one previously on a V-Rod. The one in the V-Rod was still working 8 years after I installed it. I've got 5 years on the one in my GS and it still works great. They are pricey up front but last longer than standard batteries. Two caveats- first the...

    About to pull the trigger, How bad is the vibration?

    Vibrates less and runs cooler than a similar size Harley, the engine is smooth for a large twin.

    Anyone installed the Corbin fairing?

    I'm 5'10, so the wind is probably hitting me different than you. Thanks for the input!

    MPG dropped after the ECU flash and DNA filter installed.

    My frustration is that for a 4 gallon tank I'm having to stop more often than I expected to fill up. The people I ride with mostly go 150 - 160 miles between fill ups and my gas light comes on way before that. It's like I'm the chump rolling on a Sportster that has to get gas every 100 miles...

    MPG dropped after the ECU flash and DNA filter installed.

    My mileage is also around there (39mpg) after the Brentune flash and I almost never use sport mode or grab much throttle. I have fast bikes for riding fast and I use my R18 for leisurely rides, so my mileage is disappointing. It's 5 mpg below what I averaged on a Harley with a similar engine size.
