HA!
Yes, Harley bagger. Big Sucker is a free flowing (no restrictions) air filter and the PCIII is a Power Commander which is an electronic module for fuel injection. Lets you tweak (with a computer) whateevr you want. there are what they call canned maps which are basically generic ones companies offer (i.e. This common filter, this motor, these pipes, etc) then you can get custom maps for it or tweak it yourself(leaner, richer, high end, low end etc), then the best is to get it dyno tuned (next spring for me!) and have a totally custom program just for your bike. Kind alike Zymol's wax fourmulas for specific brands, but this actually works! Sorry, just had to!
I'll post some pics up tomorrow.

Hey, thats just like the PSC1 I have on my TAcoma. It was worth every penny. It took me a while to find I shop I trusted to tune it, but WOW what a difference. Thanks for clearing that up Scoot!!

I knew that'd spark something! Nah, in all seriousness, it was hard tp pay so much$ for soemthing hidden away never to be seen (under seat), but the performance increase is amazing and worth every penny.
btw, how much is it to get your module tuned in properly? Fo rmy bike, luckily one of the best places in the Midwest happens ot be less than an hour away. I think they quoted me $220-$250 to completely custom program (map) it.

Thanks.
Once you go apes, you'l never go back! My last bike I had mini apes, 12" on it and wished I woulda went bigger. This time I went w/ 16" and wihtin 30 minutes wished I'd opted for 18"! A few buds hate apes and i had them ride this and they wee amazed at how comfortable they are. Old Skewl man, Old Skewl. Going with huge metal flake paint (bass boat type flakes) with flames, ala 70's style carnival type rides look, should be killer.

Ya. I had a few HD's when I was younger, stopped riding fro about 10 years, said no way I'd ever get another...Well when the thought of another bike came up a few years back, actually really looked at the Noms (very nice), then ended up with a Sprty, one thing led to another....
My next plan, building a Bobber!

The shop that did mine charged me $225 to install and tune it. Very reasonable if you ask me!! I was not happy with the performance when I added the intake and exhaust mods. The PSC1 made all the difference!!!
