I'm curious to see how the gauges mounted on the bars look completed. Im doing that to mine but i was going to get the BBC kit. but to save 300$ I'm going to do what you did. I have the Trashin bars and risers so i won't need the accutronix mount.
Also curious about the clutch cable and brake line extensions. Will be waiting to hear what you do there.

Thanks! The S is pretty rad, but theres something dangerously fun about the purple bike. Its just a mechanical monster, very analog in a digital bike world.

i thought you said you bought a line for the fat bob? What happened to that? Did it not work? Just wondering cause I'm about ready to order it and put my apes on.

A few more goodies for those still interested. Picked up some essentials to mount the gauges on the bars. Here is the part numbers, they've been listed before but Im posting them again in this thread. The total for this was $168.47 new from HD. Luckily, none of these are obsolete...yet.
2361 x1 - screws to hold the back plate to the gauges (they come in a pack of 5)
67319-95 x2 - tach cover without the button hole
67344-97 x2 - rear rubber grommet
63745-97 x2 - front rubber grommet
67338-97 x1 - tach/speedo mount
I have yet to get a harness, I think Im going to save myself the hassle and buy the Big Bear Choppers harness for $100. I have to buy a gauge mount bracket too since I have the one piece Lucky Daves bars going on. Ill probably pick up an Accutronix mount. LA Choppers makes one for about half the price of Accutronix so I may go with that instead. I still have to work out the issue of filling the holes in the dash. Haven't gotten that far yet, but back in the day I fiddled around with kydex and gun holsters so I may whip something up out of some .090 black Kydex. Or Ill get two more gauge back plates and use those for the time being until I get something fancy going.
Also, the bike is being torn apart this next week and going to get fixed and painted, some parts powder coated, and installed so progress will continue on my, I hate to use the term "build", and things will get rolling. I don't consider it a build but "the action of bolting on parts other than stock" is well under way haha

I mentioned earlier in this thread that I had used lines for an abs Fat Bob and on my "S" and they work just fine, however the Magnum lines have more of a custom look.
