Default you mean I gotta do MORE mods?

Here's a picture of where my ride's at now. It's a 2007 superglide. I would love your guys input on what you'd mod next. I just added the voodoo fender you see in the pic and a side mount license plate/brake. Once the tread on my back tire runs low I'll be throwing a 18x5.5 with a 180 or 200 on the back. Once I've got the tire/wheel combo back there I'll get some shocks to lower it. Right now the fender looks a little silly sitting so high. I think it'll look alot cooler once it's lowered. I'm thinking the mini apes look a little high for this bike. Gonna go in the direction of a drag bar with 4 or 5" rise eventually. Maybe the Fatbob combo? Would my cables be to long? This is my daily rider so I can't afford for it to be down for long and I don't have tons of money to drop into the mods. I've read the forums on rattle canning. Think it would look cool to use appliance expoy on the tripple trees and front signals? Maybe even the handle bars for now? I was also thinking about getting some high gloss high temp paint for the rocker covers. Any input? Thanks for all the help guys. this is my first bike and I've learned alot from this forum.

I don't know what I would do next, but I know I love that fender. The "only" reason I haven't done it is that I always get this nagging voice in my head telling me that I might want to sell the bike one day and I don't want to have cut the fender strut off.

I know, I know...someone who wants this kind of bike will pay good coin for the work that's already done but that voice in my head also happens to control the check book and I just can't talk her into it...haha

Nice ride brother.

How about some smaller, less obvious front turn signals. Might clean the front end up that last little bit.

Of the bikes that you like to look at, is there a common theme or parts that keep appearing? If so, use it as a guide. You're going to get a hundred different opinions from a hundred different people by asking such a blanket statement, none of which will actually reflect what YOU like.

No fender coverage in front of the tire? Leaves a big opening there huh? Probly look better when you get the rear end lowered a bit.
