Triple tree lower...

Not chrome, not black; bleh raw. Has anyone painted, chromed, covered or otherwise changed the look?

How did you remove the reflectors on the saddle bags and what did you plug the holes with?

I pried the locking rings off the mounting studs to remove reflectors, then used automotive panel fasteners from Ace hardware to cover the holes in my saddlebags. They just push into the holes left when reflector is removed. The reflector imprint marks will vanish over the span of a few weeks. Several Heritage owners here have done the same.

Yes mine leaks like nobody's business. Winter project is to replace with hard bags of some sort. These are a real piece of crap, IMHO.
