Some pics of my mustang wide tripper diamond stitched passenger pillon with and without sissy and backrest. Got to be ready when the wife wants to jump on the bike...
This is what I ended up with...can't open the bags if I use a sissy. It is a quick-release sissy so will use it when I have a passenger.
Re align the left side exhaust pipe, it's a little off in this shot.
Awesome job...love the set-up.
What kind of exhaust...did you have to fabricate to get the pipes on boths sides? I wanted to do that but not enough resources to get it right the first time.
That is a large fairing, great protection from the elements....What kind of mounts are you using? I am fabricating my mounts to use HD quick release clamps (the type used on quick release windshields)...like to run naked sometimes and have the wind in my face lol.
BTW can your bags open with your sissy on? You are probably using spacers on the mounts. My bags are close to the struts so when my sissy is on, I can't open the bags unless i take them off....my HD sissy bars are quick release.
Post some pics when all painted...looks great already, should look awesome when you change the tank and get it all painted.
IMO when you are done, it will be one of the nicest sporty baggers I've seen. Gotta admit, I have never seen a 48 turned into a full bagger.
I fabbed some mounts and also used the factory FLHX faring brackets, turn signal mounts and faring skirt. That is a factory FLHX batwing inner and outer from a 2009. Exhaust is custom fabbed using the FLH crossover pipe from 2014, and quick release mounts between the fender strut and bag mounts. re-wired the dash dummy lights and speedo for faring.
aftermarket bluetooth stereo, and speakers. just hunting for a 4.5 gallon EFI tank. just too much fabbing to fit an FLH tank, and starting to get slim on the $$$ LOL.
Still need bodywork and paint to finish the project, but this has been done with all HD parts, and can't wait for the opportunity to ride!

Ron, just had to say that is really is cool, looks like the bars, & front fender, bags (and maybe the front fork) are also from the FLHX!!?
Please post some pics of your ride after painting, I expecting to see a real bad-azz bagger!
Keep it on the rubber bud! cheers!

Looking good Ron. Be good to see shots of the front end as that does seem to be a good fit. Seeing how the it all fits together will just inspire others.
I really like the look. 17l tank on that and it will be perfect
Posted this on another thread related directly to these low profile Moons light but thought I share a few of pics here in the event some baggers want a low profile light so it does not stick out too far beyond the bags. This taillight has integrated turn signals but I did not utilize these since I relocated the stock turn signals and have RBT on my bags.
