I doubt I will.

Installed a swingarm bag. It sure will be nice to have some storage room.




Edit/update: swapped out the black switch covers for chrome ones

All looks good so far. I'm excited to see the finished product.

Yes sir. I understand. At this point I just want to get it all back together and ride the damn thing.

Edit: The last time this bike was ridden was on Memorial Day. Thankfully, I have the Kawasaki!

Edit 2: The Burly lowboy fork lowering kit is scheduled for delivery tomorrow. Yay me!

Edit 3: Slight change of plans: the bike will be getting the same Arlen Ness modular handlebars, yet chrome. The joker machine nut is being exchanged for a chrome one, and the chrome stock risers will be installed, yet with this chrome joker machine riser cap. No caps will be on the fork stem bolts, just chrome OEM bolts will remain.

I haven't really messed with the bike today, but here's some eye candy!

FYI: I just ordered these Arlen Ness Smoothie Mirrors for the bike. They were on closeout. I got the right one for $44. Good deal!

Also I got these Arlen Ness Smoothie Grips to match. They were on sale.

Good news. The handlebars have been ordered. My wad is officially blown!

I also ordered this Arlen Ness flush mount riser kit.



It will certainly look better than this!

I seriously thought about doing some kind of flush bushing arrangement but the headlight on mine is so close that it hides pretty much all those "sins".

That's an interesting solution. I wonder if the bottom bushing is hogged out to accommodate that fastener. Seems like it would have to be.
