Only mod done so far is the addition of a HD Oil cooler. It was highly recommended by my indy mech. It was installed at the 1000 mile service last June, just before the summer heat. Speedo is ok with me. I can see it where it is and know my speed. My first street bike and enjoy it very much.

Relax, ride safely, and enjoy God's creations.

I'm with you on the speedo. I haven't done anything with it yet, just working on other priorities. I like it where it is, it just needs a tach next to it, or an all-in-one like the Dakota Digital. It just looks ugly.

How much trouble was that tank swap, and what tank did you go with? That is what I am leaning towards.

Its not a bad job but the cost of parts can add up in a hurry. I went with a tank off a 07 Low Rider with the 08FXDSE/10WG Dash.

Berck ... your bike is lookin' awesome ... all that gleaming chrome and the smooth rear fender is slick ....

Looks good without tank badges ... plain and simple, but not plain ... more like simple elegance ....

Those are the stock wheels you had chrome plated ...?

The wheels are the new ones from Harley that come chrome. By the time I bought these and sold my stock wheels it was cheaper this way than having the stock ones chromed. Plus since these came chrome they are smooth all over and dont have the rough parts on the inside on the spokes like the stock ones did.
