Looks really nice. One thing though is the sissy bar uprights don't look right to me. I am now modifying a set to look more sleek and to tie in with the sissy bar better. Ill post pics when I finish. Very nice ride you have.

Not worried at all about what the sideplates look like. The sissy bar and bags have been modified to all detach as a unit. It's a case of funtion over form.

Joe...thanks for the words. I see no reason why the GSXR stabilizer can't be modded to work. Anything is possible if someone wants to do it and puts their heart into like you do with your bikes.

Nice job. Takes some work to mold an HD into the bike you want. See you got your TrueTrack on too. Worth the time to notice the multitude of changes. Way too many past just wheels and fairing.

You still looking at a brake mod? And any thoughts on an oil cooler?

It's against my policy to criticize, and I don't want to start any hard feelings here, but I know many here are thinking this: Those bars made me throw up in my mouth a little bit.......
