Default Some updates with pics

got a couple new things. Recap of parts so far. Most are budget finds.

13" vrod muscle shocks
Conleys fairing chopped
Repop touring lowers
Dyna crash bar
Leather pros bags
Mustang fast back seat
Fork boots
Gauge relocate and extend canbus wires
Paint pen tires

I'm on the fence with my rear turn/ brake light situation. I just mounted them inside the fender but I'm not sure if it looks balanced or not

It was a free mod so saving 200 on a plate relocate is great. Any other ways to get the turn signals looking good for cheap?

Here are a bunch of pics

Bike looks good! How do you like the vrod shocks so far? Check out the custom dynamics license plate frame with integrated run/brake/turn sig, my buddy has one on his fxdb mounted just a little lower than your plate, looks good

How do you mount that plate turn signal option. I didn't see how you do it

The vrod shocks work great. I have never had an expensive set of shocks but these shocks I think are better ride than stock and lift the rear an inch

I just cut a circle blank out of stainless and plastidipped it for right now.

It's 2 plates. One inside the dash and one on top so when screwed together it clamps the dash and keeps it in place

Like the look! Makes me sorta miss my old blue T-Sport.
I tried lowers on my FXDF, but they scraped too easy in tight turns...your's look like a different year; I just have a cap over the mounting point on the top bar...hmmm; may have to revisit this.
Great looking bike and a good inspiration

Thanks you all.

Went for a pretty fast ride today. Scraping pegs I do not scrape the crash bar or lower fairings.

Set up work great
