So, with the new Harley comes a brand new set of add ons and mods, and man, there's a lot of them to choose from. Just thought I'd start a thread to see what some of yall's favorites are.

Right now, I'm looking at:
-The kickstand (jiffy stand) extension (yeah, I'm that short)
-Possibly the Reach seat (looking at Mustangs as well for the narrower thigh area)
- I'm digging the dipstick cap with the digital temperature gauge (it gets a little warm here, that could come in handy)
- Lights for the sides of the saddlebags
- The low rise quick release windshield (the current one is 1"-2" too high)
- Depending on oil temps, possibly an oil cooler down the road

I'm sure that list will grow much, much longer....

Lol HD is the KING of aftermarket accessories!
As far as accessories, what you have listed seems like a pretty good list so far. I might add on a driver's backrest for the long trip out to CO, and possibly highway pegs. Maybe even a stereo with a helmet earphone jack if you're comfortable riding with that.

Thought about a backrest, but I could also put a bag on the passenger backrest and turn it so I can lean back on it (not that I really can lean that far back). I'm also considering going with a solo seat. Decisions, decisions...

And, um, my feet wouldn't reach highway pegs, I don't think
