Default So it begins!! I went from this to this!!

So guys I went from a 2008 Street Bob to a 2013 Street Glide.

This is how the Street Bob Started off and what i did to it. Take a look I will post pictures of the new Bike and what I have done already.

Updated pictures of the build are on page 4

This is the new Bike. What it looked like before I took it home and what it looks like in the garage. Still a ton of work but take a peek.

Biggest project was making the engine black with wrinkle and replacing all the crapy harley bolts with show polish stainless bolts from "Alloy boltz" The exhaust, air cleaner, and power vision. More to follow. I guess its ok that it snowed this week because I can start early.

Great looking bikes both of them. If I had the time and money I loved the look of the motors on the crossbones with the gloss black jugs and chrome rocker box covers I would do that on my road king custom.

Nice job! When I moved from my Softail to my new Road Glide I figured I was done with mods. Not so fast....

Big fan of the blacked out. I finished my bike off with complete black out (photo still shows dash and backrest chrome) Get lots of comments.
