Nice, when my dad got his 11' harley I ripped it apart and put a new stereo in it, hard wired a radar detector and mounted his gps.

Crazy feeling ripping into a brand new bike!!! Also did stage 2.

Anyway he loves his GPS he will ride and ride then GPS his way home if he gets lost haha!!!

His is a mp3 and satellite radio as well, is yours only a gps?

They are awesome... As I just said obpn another thread... Put about 90 miles on my truck in the last couple months. Never want to cage again.

I want to know why mine came on adventure bike tires and most others come on street bike tires. Have 8-9 inches of suspension travel and off road esa and enduro tranny for pot holes?

I think it's a dealer choice thing. Some put dual sport tires on the cast wheels and knobbies on the spoked wheels. I know when I picked up mine, there were a couple with knobbies. These days, knobbies are expensive and have a pretty short life on the highway.
