Rod Glide Mods
Sharing some morning pictures. My bike started as an 08 Low Rider. Shopping through Craigs List, the Forum classifieds and Ebay I added and grafted in some used parts for performance and looks. V-rod front forks, brembos and wheel. Wideglide tank, sissy bar, mini apes(08WG) and headlight, touring rear rotor and brembo. Chopped and lowered a Street Bod fender, under mounted the plate with led ilumination and changed the tail light to a BAL street glide light with no license window. Fat Bob front pipes welded to a Screamin Eagle 16 gage rear section, 1 inch through baffles and shortened chrome covers for the complete the tommy gun look.

Looks great! Wouldn't even guess that started as a Low Rider. Maybe a little more black in the front end, triple trees, risers, bars, something but really looks sharp and I like the exhaust, very unique looking with the upsweep to them. Now tell us about that rear brake? And did the front end fit up fairly easily?

Nice
I don't normally comment on how people mod their bikes(it's their bike) but that all goes together nice!!.
Are the V-Rod forks,just the Lowers on Dyna triples & forks?.
