A few changes on the superglide

Got tired of reaching for the short stock bars so I installed a set of mini apes on 1" chrome risers. Powdered the speedo and strut covers gloss black instead of the wrinkle black. Added a chrome tank console and black forward controls with new pegs. Relocated the turn signals on a chrome flhx light bar under the tail light and put on a new fatbob seat. The bike just feels better now with the seat, forwards and new bars.

Much better than stock for sure. I would say easier on the back.

It looks good. I like the black forwards but I guess I'm biased. I have a set that should be here next week week.

I really like it . If you got the fork lowers , and the triple trees PC'd gloss black , and kept the wheels silver , it would really set it off . But , kudos on the way it is now !

I like the idea with the turn signal light bar from the FLHX. Was it an easy mod? I am looking to do this to mine too.

Thanks for the compliments.

Bullydog... I know some here have ground the actual signal bracket down to fit on the fender as its made for the recessed fenders. I chose to machine two aluminum washers in a wedge shape and then coat with rubber. I used the stuff that most home improvement stores carry and you normally use it to coat the handles of pliers and such. Its a liquid but dries as rubber, the spacers fit great and the rubber should protect my fender.
