Lowered suspension, 09 Street Bob seat, after market bars, replica 1959 tank emblems, HD nostalgia hand grips, 3" round mirrors, relocated turn sigs, EBay $20 air intake, removed reflectors & factory decals, painted interior of wheels, swaped electrical cover & belt guard with 07 Street Bob, painted battery band cover. I didn't like the fork gattors so I sold em to another forums member.
All for under $1200.
