It's the RSD Black Ops brace - see posts 101-113 on this thread for more info.

Cool. I know which one you mean. I was looking at other fork braces because of that ones price tag, but I haven't found any others that bulge out from the mounting brackets like the RSD one does. The others I've found are just too close to the tire.

Thanks.

Just thought I'd throw out a recent pick of the bike after a few minor mods... HD flush mount gas cap and RSD front pulley guard. I ditched mine because the mesh was begin to rust and I didn't want to mess with replacing it.

RoyRules, I started reading this thread with normal interest; but as I went from page to page of posts, I realized that you were starting to go crazy! I was amazed from page to page just how much work you were putting into this project. I also found myself trying to guess what part of the bike you would work on next. I really couldn't have guessed the speedo swap and front turn signal relocation. The air cleaner is amazing. At some point, I was like... "This is perfect. He can't have anything else planned." Then you have the bike in pieces with wires everywhere!!! Truly amazing. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Zensmile - it's been an ongoing project, but obviously most of the work is done. I saw several bikes where I liked a few things about them, but not the whole look - or the cost that went into the build. I definitely did this on a budget and took my time to control costs and now I have a bike that I love. The 1250 Hammer Performance kit is still on my wishlist... we'll see if it ever happens.

Here's my build break down:
Most expensive mod - PowerVision tuner/gauges
Most difficult mod - Rear fender and struts chop
Scariest mod - ECM relocation and re-routing the wiring
Mod I would recommend the most - Patoriot Exhaust... it sounds amazing and it's the best performing pipe on the market - just check out Hammer's website and scroll through all of the data they have on it!

Default Rear turn signals

Where did you buy the rear turn signals?

All the turn signals are factory. The rears were relocated after the fender struts were chopped. Thanks!
