RE: Just wondering
Chipstah, I do like the looks of your bike especially the wrapped pipes but mine is cobalt blue and blue wrapped pipes would not look good. I noticed that you only have the one seat like mine. I bought my bike because of the olde style one rider. My wife stated that she was not going to ever ride it with me (she thought that would bother me) but I like the time alone. Great scooter therapy.

You'll be sorry you posted that message[:-] For sure the Harley Accessory police (a/k/a Chrome Consultants) will be tracking you down for a major wallet whooping. How dare you not fall into the trap of buying thousands of dollars of overpriced, overseas parts from a dealer who would likely not know or care what your name was unless you spent thousands of dollars on overpriced, overseas parts secured from Global sources? 
Actually, congrats for not being sucked into the hype about "personalizing" you ride. If you like what you have, more power to you and think of all the $$$$ you'll save. Look at it this way, by keeping your bike stock, it's probably going to look different than all the blinged out trailer queens that go from Starbucks to Starbucks on Friday and Saturday.
(Man, I need to switch to decaf earlier in the day) [&:]

Just because some of us "fell into the trap" doesn't mean we trailer our bikes to Starbucks. Yep the parts are overpriced and just because they say Harley Davidson on them doesn'tmean they were made in the USA. What is anymore? I remember the days when WalMart used to brag that everything they stocked was made in the US. But, have you checked their inventory lately? At least none of it is overpriced though.
Nobody sucked or hyped me into buying anything. I did it because I wanted to.

One other thing. I thought about going with forward controls but decided to go with an engine guard, to which I added fog lights,and highway pegs. I like the option of changing position as I ride and for me I feel more comfortable with my feet under me in stop and go traffic.

Does anyone have a sense of humor any more?
Of course it was not meant to be taken seriously except the point that it is his bike and should do whatever he wants to with it, be it stock or blinged out. And yes, I've busted the budget on my bike on occasion, seems we all do at some point.
And yes, the sig picture is my ride, bling and all.
