Hello to all I just purchased a 2013 Limited Edition Cross Country, I have not been able to ride it yet due to my parts havent came in from the dealer and they are waiting to be installed. They are putting an arlen ness 21 inch wheel, arlen ness mini apes, arlen ness mirrors/grips. Then they are putting on a aftermarket filters, basani pipes, and the big shot fuel tuner. So, my question is how will the performance on this bike compete with a 103 roadglide that has pipes filters and tuner? A good friend of mine that has a roadglide is all ready talking smack. lol. I had an M109 that had around 170hp so I think he is gonna try and get me back for embarrassing him all the time. lol

I don't know how those pipes and fuel controler perform but unless they make it run worse than stock you should be able to hold your own.

Your mate on the Road Glide will still be crying.
That's why i'm trading my FLHX in on a Cross Roads.
They have more grunt & handle heaps better.

The HD will feel faster off the line with the torque coming on at lower revs, but the Cross Country will have a better top end and easily beat the HD in a 1/4 mile race and will also have better highway roll on. However, if you want a really fast bike I'd go with a Hayabusa or similar.
