If you don't find anything try a set of colorful wires. I may install some blue ones in the future.
I added the orange Scream'n Eagle wires to my Bonneville Salt Pearl (not being offered on the 2019s) and it made for a nice contrast. I wouldn't mind seeing a chrome coil cover for the Low Rider.
Need to take a few pictures of my own as this is a stock photo from the vendor... Chose the Bung King Highway bar and I'm very happy with it. It is the standard diameter for Harley highway bars (1-1/4")so any and all clamp-on pegs can work if you want them.
New here - first post. I'm sure I'll be popping in a lot. Anyway I just picked up my '18 Low Rider on Monday and can't get enough of it. I got the Wicked Red one, like Taurus24's above. So far, nothing fancy - just added a sissybar/pad and luggage rack. I'll be adding a windshield at some point, but for now, the wind in my face is welcome. I got an Electraglide a few years ago. Awesome bike! A series of unfortunate events kept me off it for about the last year. Most recently, I injured an arm pretty badly and haven't felt confident driving that huge (to me) beast. So, I did what any normal person would do - I bought a new motorcycle!
I will say that I'm apparently one of the few people who are comfortable with the mid controls. I guess coming off the Electraglide (and sitting in an office most of the day), it's a comfortable posture for me. Two of my friends are Harley owners and are both 6'6". It's absolutely comical watching them trying to ride it. I'm 5'0" and would say that I'm probably at the upper end of what would be considered comfortable on that bike without moving the controls forward.
I'm digging the pictures of everyone's mods. Keep 'em coming!
New here also, just picked up a new 18 Lowrider in Wicked Red (seems to be a popular color). So I just want to say hi and look forward to seeing everybody's Lowriders here in this thread.
Well, just updating to show the new stuff added! Chrome forks, chrome side covers and the chrome oil cooler cover! Now to look into bars. Hill Country Cycles are now offering complete kits to do apes. (Bars, wires, cables, hoses!) I think I'll be ordering them anytime now! Can't wait to see how they look!
Time for more of you lowrider guys to comment in!
John, are those Softtail Deluxe chrome side covers? Part numbers 61300666 (right) and 69201510 (left).

I must have gotten something in my eye while out riding that new bike without a windshield. I'm 5'9" not 5'0". That would be a seriously LOW Rider. I was cracking up when I went back and re-read that!

Well after 300 miles on my Lowrider I can say that getting used to the mid controls isn't that difficult. I wasn't sure at first but now I think the mids will work out. I am 5' 8" and I wouldn't want to be much taller using the mids.
I'm 5'10". At first I thought I'd want forwards but like you, I'm used to the mid's and liking 'em. My wife used to have a Dyna Low Rider that we sold long ago, to me the '18's feel a tad bit more forward then the Dyna used to be.
