Cool, now us Custom lovers have our own private "pig pen".
When I first saw it in the dealer, and fell instantly in lust. Got the wife a little jealous, but she did let me have the money for it.
When It got to my house, the wife is now a Harley widdow. Unless she instists on riding with me, but that's OK I like her too.
Now is that a sweet "butt" or what?

Just added the V&H Big Radius and Ness Big Sucker to go along with all the other "trinkets". Got some 501's, chrome controls, ISO grips, chrome switch housings, braided cables, solo seat, lowering kit, etc, planned for this winter.....Bike rides very nice, and no issues at all w/ 1,200 miles and ticking!

Skips69,
Love the pipes, but how did you get the ugly amber reflectors off the front fork tubes?

These are the chrome lowers, and didn't come with the reflectors already installed originally, and I just never put them on myself, afterwards. But, to get the reflectors off is pretty straight forward. Just pull them off, and clean up remaining residue w/ mineral spirits, WD-40, Goo-Gone, etc. Some guys like to heat them up first w/ a hair gun, then work them off by sawing with small test fishing line.

Well that explains it. They "look" like the regular sliders in the picture, just a bad angle I suppose.
I'll just have to do the heat, saw and "de-gooing" trick. I put a Kuryakyn fork brace on already so chrome covers are out, and if I have to choose between the two, I would rather keep the brace.
Thanks

Good lookin' bike locknload, and I agree the smaller blinkers would make a drastic change in appearance. She's a looker though, definately a sweet one. Nice color on her too!

Love the color. All I ever see are the solid black ones - like mine. Kind of wish I had held out for 2-tone, but mine was on the floor at MSRP, and every other Harley I've ever had was black, so bought another one. Chrome goes good with them all though. Nice mods so far.

Nice color, and welcome to the "Custom" club. I have had mine for almost two months now and love the hell out of it, I'm sure you will too.
I think that HD may want to think about upping the production numbers for it as it seems to be a VERY popular choice for 07.

Thanks Citoriplus. When I first saw the two tone color I fell in love with it. I will post more pics when I get my Retro King and Queen seat next week and Diamondback Cables.

I fell in love with the picture of the two tone (red/black) one in the catalog. But when I saw the black one on the dealers floor I HAD TO HAVE IT, NOW!!!!
The up side is that I want to do some custom paint and the factory black is a better fit for that than any of the two tones. Besides if you plan on repainting something, why spend extra for two tone paint that's going to get sanded or media blasted off later.
I hope you enjoy yours as much as I do mine, its a really nice bike.

I like the those centerline foot controls. Although I got the stealth grips, I don't much like the stealth pegs/foot controls. Thinking of going with the ironside, centerline, or slotted chrome and rubber.

Great looking Bike TC47. I really like the Retro Seat you have on it. Is it as comfortable as the standard one ?

Yes Zarn,
is it! Hard to believe, but the seat is very comfortable. Eight hours on the road (and our roads in germany can realy kick your ass:-) are no problem. Just put it on the bike and sit comfortable and look so much better then the original seat......

Picked up my custom mid September. Stock, so far. Plan on a winter project of V&H Big Shots and fuelpak, K&N filter and the combo speedo + tach that mounts in the console.

Nice looking pistol, I like the blue better than I tought I would when I first saw the paint chips in the catalog.
They need to do something about that, how the hell do they expect you to pick a color from that is a mystery to me.
Good thing I like black better. Not hard to picture that in your head.

Now that's a nice bike you got there jhnmflr, seems like there are a lot of really nice bikes around here.
But I guess when you start with the best, how far wrong can you go?
Maybe that's not a good question to ask, there always seems to be one idiot in every crowd.
