Looks awesome. Are those different spoked wheels? I've gone more chrome, you've gone more blacked out. I must say it looks impressive.

Thanks. no they are stock wheels. my next things will be 21" front wheel, 16" or 18" rear wheel, a Shotgun shock, and a programmer. im going to go with 60 spoke wheels with black hub, black rim, and polished laces and nipples.

that looks great! Did you buy the black trim or have it painted? I’m looking to do something similar with mine

I like it too. I am having dealer black power coat my heal shifter before I pick up bike and think I am adding this to the list.

I didn't realize that they made the Shotgun shock for the 2018+ mono-shock Softails.
I don't see it as an option on the website.

thanks,

Thanks to the OP for posting. I just bought the same bike/same color last week and was wondering what it would look like without the bags.

Probably a stupid question, but is the cat in the pipes or mufflers? Mine has stock pipes with VH Twin Slash slip ons.
