Thanks! I uploaded link to a youtube video, I tried to show upclose the clearence with the lowers. Im planning on doing a 21 this summer when my tire wears out. What kind of lowering kit do you put in? Are you happy with the handling with the lowering kit and 21" wheel?

I put in a Burly drop in spring. I like the handling of the bike, it's a little rougher of a ride, but I love the look. I think I will add some heavy duty SE fork oil and I'm hoping that will help it out a bit. You don't need to lower it with the 21" wheel.

Just checked out your youtube video. Sweet!
I've got my power wires running through the same rubber firewalls and have had water drip in when washing. That's why I'm searching for a quick disconnect that seals. Let me know if after a few rides you think you want more sound in your face up higher than the lower fairings. Kinda playing with the idea of adding bar speakers but concerned about looks, clutter, etc.

Got my air filter in. K&N part #RC-5127 - Universal Chrome Filter $53.99.
I also added cycle sounds remote volume switch.

Put 70 miles on Sunday and am extremely happy with how it all turned out. Stereo sounded amazing.
