I've never seen that color before on a Harley but I like it! And that means something coming from a guy that prefers matte black over all else.
Only thing I'd change is that air cleaner. I think it's super ugly, and as I recall it does not provide any increased air flow (or maybe that was just the early version)

I really like the bike. The bars aren't for me. You must have monkey arms if you can reach them.

I'm 6'2", but I like to see myself as normal. For me it's just the perfect setup for not too streched out, and not too close.

looks good! Kinda nice seeing older Dynas on here once in awhile. Did you do a tank lift? The front of your tank looks a little higher than my 02.

I did a 2" lift on the front. Had a buddy cut me some blanks, and about $1.50 in hardware. Gas gauge is off a bit, but I never really used it anyway. Fill up when I hit 150 miles.
