Default My SG to Shark conversion NEW pics added 3/31 To pages 2&3

UPDATED PICS ON PAGE 2!!
Hey guys... I just thought I would share some progress pics of my conversion. I'm hoping to get it finished, and to Dave Vos for a custom seat, and razor pack pad next week. Tired of having another black SG, so I swapped it to a RG, and went with House of Kolor, Kandy Apple Red over a custom mix metallic silver base. Pics do not do this color any justice. Also swapped my 6.5" speaker lids over to VooDoo lids, and 8.8" JL audio speakers, stayed with 6.5" JL's in the lowers, and JL 6.5" mid woofers, and Hertz st25 horn tweeters in the fairing. Sent the front forks, etc into my chrome guy, along with my tour pak bracket, footboard brackets, and a few other small parts. I went with the Dirty Bird "smooth" wind shield, and had that molded to the fairing for a seemless clean look. Added the Daymakers, Alloy Art front LED signals, hidden fairing brackets, etc. I will post more pics as I get it finished up.

You must have a lot work into this project, show some more pictures when you
are out on the road when it's completed. You will be more able to review the work
you have done, when it 's finished.

Looks sweet so far. How difficult was the conversion? (I don't want to do it... don't have that skillset... just wondering).

These are becoming my favorite thread types - RG conversions. Nice work. I like the way you've blended some of those parts together. And that color is gorgeous.

Baldguy13... it really is all just nuts, and bolts/screws. I used actual H-D inner & outer fairings to avoid any hassle or fitment issues with aftermarket parts. Then I just went through the parts list on ronniesharleydavidson's website, and ordered all the hardware I needed. I was lucky enough to find the interconnect harness on ebay real cheap. I did have to swap my bars, which is something I wasn't planning for (just didn't think about that I guess) but it really isn't difficult as far as the labor.

...... that's a pretty wild bezel on the Daymakers, give a whole diff. profile w/o really blocking the throw of the lights
........... and i'll bet that red is lusterous in the daylight
.... welcome to the shark side

ICIBUY,

WOW!!!

I always thought your Street Glide was one of baddest ones on the forum!!!

The Road Glide mods look simply gorgeous and truly custom. Can't wait to see it complete.


Welcome to the "TANK" bro!!!

Me likely!
