Looks like I got the last one they had in stock, Site said (low on stock), ordered one and now they are saying (special order).

Going to need some help with the beetle map, will pursue with beetle once slip-on is installed.

I think you'll enjoy it Cool.

I just installed Beetle's map on my 2008 Norge and yesterday got my Black Agostini from Italy also installed...very nice combo, lighter weight, and looks cool.

Call Agostini directly and talk to Stefano...he'll take care of you, nice thing is they haven't raised their prices in Euros from last year when the USD/Euro fx rate was 1.38...now it's 1.10 so you're getting quite a discount compared to a year ago.

Always wanted an expensive can on my bikes but was too cheap, in my 60's now so it's now or never.  :boozing:

Thinking that big air cooled V-twin is going to sound great!

When I got my '12 Norge it came with an Agostini exhaust, not the exact one you got, but it looks about the same.  Also installed Beetle's 8v Norge roller map like you are planning.   His map is set up for the stock Norge exhaust, so you will have to adjust the CO trim through Guzzidiag to get it to idle properly, especially on cold start. In my case I'm at +15, and that seems to have compensated for the aftermarket Agostini pretty well.

Have fun with it and let us know how the new can works out with the new map !

Pulling the main fuse to re-trim the ECU (after installing the Agostini).

1. Where is the main fuse?

2. Will I need to reprogram the display (change KM to Miles, etc)?

Sounds like I need to make a choice, either leave the DB killer in or remove it, don't keep changing it in and out? Also I'm, thinking of cutting the DB killer half way to quite it down a bit but still give it some authoritative sound?

you could shorten the db killer, like I did.  Happy medium!

There should be a 30A fuse on the fuse box.  That'll be your main fuse.

rock, did you pull the main fuse or just install the can?

That old pipe cutter may come in handy.  :boozing:
