Default Need help - Trying to capture that elusive "club" style

Hello,
I have always been a fan of club style Dynas and have been trying to take my FXDLS in that direction, with no success so far.
My bike looks like this now :




I want my bike to look like this (apologies if I am posting someone's ride against their wishes)

I cant seem to put my finger on the one thing that the bike above has and that mine does not and I would really appreciate a nudge in the right direction. Is it the bars, the rear suspension, the full fender rear, something else I am missing ? Or is it the combination of all the mods together ? What would you do to my bike to give it that style I like so much ?
Many thanks in advance for any tips

Taller bars and a 2-1 exhaust will give you the 'look' !

The bike you like has taller T-bars, black BMX style grips, black off-road style fork slider boots, blacked out windshield, blacked out rims, and I don't know where your turn signals went but theirs are relocated to the fork down tubes. I'd guess they also have a black 2:1 exhaust.

To me its always the fork gators. Now that I see them again, I want them.

Have no intent to make a "club bike", not even sure what it is. but Check out utube. There is a 10min or so program on the sons of anarchy where the actors talk about their individual setups.. all dynas but the trike. Funny, the main actor isnt a rider in the sense we are.

Bars. The taller the better.
Overhead is awesome.
Yeah, and 2 into 1 exhaust.
Need lots of noise.

Taller TBars, 2-1 pipe, full rear fender conversion, taller suspension front and back, fork gaiters, and black powdercoat everywhere.

Don't forget the trendy Simpson helmet for good measure.
