Default Some updated pics of my ride prior to winter mods

Yeah, I'm nearly ready to sort out my hardbags and fairing for paint, as I've said before fairing is quick detach, but hardbags and brackets should take about 30 mins to put it back to Vicla style.
Here's some pics










Photo's are from a photoshoot from when my bike was featured in a mag late last year.

Well sorted as always.

Are you doing factory hard bags or aftermarket extended?

Turning a softail vicla into a bagger is like trying to make a 16yr old Thai boy into a lady...you might get the look but you know its just not going to be the same! ha! Buy a Road Glide too and leave that beauty alone

You need to get that front end down at least 4inches looks like a 4x4 in the front. I dig the paint scheme ****ing awsome

Thanks for the comments guys,
Motown.....I've got extended bags with cutouts for the pipes with Cyclevisions brackets to hang them, as regards changing the look, to be honest I've got a lot of dough in the whole Bagger thing, and I'm still not real sure myself, so we'll have to see, beauty of it all is that I will have the option to swap it to Vicla or Bagger in no time.

Howard... Lowering the front is definetly going to have to happen sooner or later, as I'm swapping that 21'' out for a 23'' so again we'll have to see.
Really enjoying this whole thing though, having been into sports bikes for most of my life,

Great looking bike. Paint looks awesome. I think she deserves a new rear brake lever instead of that stocker though.
