Default Finally riding!

I bought this bike in November while I was still overseas but wasn't able to pick it up until the end of January. With a very hectic spring I didn't actually get a chance to get out on the road with it until this past weekend. Thankfully that gave me some time to do a few things I wanted to beforehand. The guy I bought the bike from was roughly 1 foot shorter than me and 100lbs lighter so I had to make some changes.
3" Kury forward control extensions
Badlander seat redone by Mean City Cycles
15" sissy bar for the wife
Kury flush mount gas cap and gauge
RoadLok front brake lock ChiefX gave away this winter.
and sometime this week a Jackyl 2" tank lift!
I had to put the original shocks back on as he was running 9" shocks and I'd bottom it out with those on!









Excuse my disaster area of a yard, the Harley took priority over getting the mower fixed and doing spring clean up!

The tank lift is really going to look good on that bike.

Thanks guys. The swing arm is just the cover, I had considered adding more chrome but after spending a couple hours cleaning what's on it already I think I have just enough. It's a 99 with 19+K miles on it. With any luck this coming year I'll change up the paint just a bit. There's a ding in the tank on the other side from where it was stored with another bike and the kickstand of the other bike wasn't put all the way out. I like the cobalt blue but want to add in a subtle flame like the one below.



I love the spokes too but I don't believe the original owner cleaned/polished the back rim at all, in between the spokes it was black!
