Last of the mods for 2008 and last of the money till ???
Installed a 180 rear tire and a touring model rear signal bar. Got the signals off the struts. I used the slugs and strut brackets from my old detachable hardware kit. Picked up a set of rear rotor chrome bolts to use in place of the strut bolts.

That rear sig bar looks pretty good man. Think about maybe blacking it out and just leave the bullets chrome?
I needed a rear tire badly and was down in Columbia,SC yesterday to get one. I planned on getting the 180 but Thunder Tower didn't have one. Would have taken two weeks to get one in. Nearest "kit" was in Rock Hill, SC about 80-90 miles away. Since RussL (from the touring forum) and Sniper77 (dyna forum) met me at the dealer I decided to just get another 160 since they had that in stock. Was a little depressed bout it. I really wanted the 180. Oh well. At least the dealer had some winter special going on and all I had to pay was for materials (tire, tube and rim strip). They did not charge me labor. Ended up paying $231 and change. I asked and they would not install the tire without the clips. At least I tried.

The ball mount you need is located on the clutch perch of the OEM set-up. You can get a second from the dealer for jsut a few dollars. I thing the hole in them is 5/16" and they have to be drilled out to 3/8" for the fork pinch bolts.
