Oh, and that bag came from www.lickscycles.com if I'm not mistaken..

Thanks Adrian, and everyone else as well for the compliments.

My best guess for why mine look a bit more upswept is that I had the jiffy stand flat on the pavement, and the wife was sitting on one of those concrete parking blocks while she was taking the photos. Maybe a bit lower than whoever was taking the pics of your ride, like in your sigpic?

Looks good, like the way the pipe looks. Looks like you can lean the bike even more without scraping it, that always a good thing

Yeah, it's weird...others have griped of scraping their Thunderheaders in hard turns, but I've never scraped the pipe or a peg. Granted, I never plan on lowering the suspension...I'm all about looks before handling.

Wait a minute, didn't you win those shocks from Dyna Mo thinking they were 1 inch shorter shocks?

I did. I joined that contest not initially realizing he'd said they were "1-inch under stock" and I ended up hoping like crazy that he'd meant 1" under FXD length and that they'd get here and be the same as my FXDB's shocks. That was actually the first thing I did when they arrived...measure ring to ring to see if they were what I really needed. Otherwise I was gonna do the same as he did, and choose a random number from that thread to hand them off to.

Thankfully this situation worked out for me.

And here you're trying to bust me out!!!
