My opinion when it comes to slip-on vs full system depends on what you are doing with the bike.
If you frequently visit the drags/track and are wanting to get every last bit of power out of your bike then get the full system. If you are simply a street rider then your stock bike has all the power you'll ever need and you'll never notice the 4 or 5 hp gain. Just get the slip-on for sound and save the coin. |

I think if they would offer it at around $6k it would definitely have a lot of appeal. |

I think that may be the case for the 883s; but I Think they'll keep the 1200s (unless they offer them in 1200)
883s seem to be stuck in the middle. They're nearly the same $ as the 1200. I test rode an 883 Iron; and it has plenty of torque down low, but over 55 it was quite a bit under-powered. Definitely a bombing around town bike - which is great for what it is. |
So How does everybody store there bike for the Winter?
My bikes are in a heated garage. I put Stabil in a full tank and start them every three weeks or so. Right now I have 6 bike in there because everybody knows I am the one with a good heated shop where we can work on them. |
I usually go for one last ride to drain the tank as much as possible, put a little seafoam in it, and hook it up to a tender. I don't start it again til probably march.
EDIT: Forgot to mention, I change the oil. |

Planned Off-Season additions/mods
-Speedometer relocation / flat bar cover -Coil/Ignition Key Relocation (near battery/seat) -Python Mamba 3” slip-ons (Bologna cut) -2.5” Tank Raise & wire tuck -Retro Pegs -High Flo air cleaner -Fuel Pack -Relocate front signals from bars to the forks -Retro Coke Bottle style grips. Possibly go from 10” to 12” internally wired capabale apes…though I need to find out if the current cable slack will be sufficient. Not sure I’ll screw with it if I need a cable kit. ($$$) |

If I don't have to put in a cabling/wiring kit for the 12"s, then I'll definitely go that route. But man...hard to find info on these 72s just yet. (in terms of if the cabling is long enough etc). If I can go internally wired + that speedo relocation to the left side under the tank...I'll love the look even more. |

The thing about a full system is they do flow better and will increase an engine’s output but to access that extra power you have to do something Harleys aren’t really known for: spin a lot of RPM’s. Since Dayze seems more interested in just a better sound and looks slip-ons should do the trick. |
