    Today I ordered all the parts for the Stage 1. Vance and Hines pipes, the air filter and the efi management. It should be really good, I am looking forward to having it all fitted. Because the bike is still under warranty I am going to let a HD dealership do the work, to be honest, Thames Valley Harley gave me a great deal so no complaints whatsoever.

    Once out of warranty (next August) I may be more creative. But for now, is fine.

    I'll post some photos when the work is done but to be honest just about the only visual change is the V&H slip ons.

    Wantin to do a winter upgrade myself, but its far from a stage I, and it won't be done at any Harley Dealership, nor will any of their parts go into my winter project.
    never cared about the warranty HD gave me.

    The dealer, Thames Valley Harley, seems very good though of course it all remains to be seen. They gave me a great quote for the parts and are seriously discounting the labour, so right now I'm not going to complain. I guess in the current economic climate there are some good deals to be had and the dealerships want the work.

    I'll do some pictures when the work is done. Probably late December or early Jan.
