Decided to change the bike around once again. Felt it was lacking some rideability and fun. Ditched the apes for 10in risers and bung king bars. Took the burly slammers off and threw the stock shocks back on. Sold the barebones and bought a c&c fastback. Put the front fender back on. Also mounted up the little fairing on the front. Overall I'm happy with it and the bike seems more fun to ride with this setup. Nicer shocks will be next. Here's a before pic of how it looked before the changes.

and how it looks now.

Personally, I liked the before look. I don't dislike the after look. It is your ride. Make it the way you want. Ride safe

I like the after better also. I can also tell by the before pic that you only like dark red vehicles

Very nice, it's A great-looking bike. I can see the attraction with the Burleys its a nice look but certainly doesn't seem very functional. Enjoy and ride safe!
