Hi all! Picking up a 2015 V7 II Special tomorrow, and planning suspension upgrade as my first thing, and exhaust being number 2. What are some recommended suspension options? Do most people just swap the rears, or do the fronts need work/replacement as well? For what it's worth, I'm about 280lb so not a little fella.

As far as exhaust, I definitely something that is catless, not just a slip-on muffler. Any high exhaust options worth considering (like the Stornello)?

Aside from replacing the suspension and shocks, what are the other common recommendations? I've read about evap delete and tuning, but wasn't sure if that's still current information or not. Any advice is appreciated!

Hi GT, thanks for your reply. I have seen that thread previously, but wasn't able to find it again for some reason. So many pinned threads to look through, lol.

As far as exhaust, I've looked through the store but I didn't see any high exhausts in there so was hoping someone could chime in. Maybe I'll just ask in the Facebook groups instead since they seem more active. Thanks!
