Nice. I like your bike better without the cafe racer fairing.

The bag is awesome. Generally, I don't like the looks of bags or windshields on Dynas. I chose function over form this time. It's nice being able to tuck a few things in there...clear goggles, extra sweatshirt, ball peen hammer, brass knuckles...lol.

Very nice. The black wheels and lowers look much better.

Thanks...I like silver motor on the FXD though I know I'm in the minority on that. I like contrasting the silver with black parts.

I also don't mind the bar mounted speedo...again I would guess I'm in the minority. I rode a friends Fatbob and didn't like having to look down to see my speed.

I do realize my bars are a little crowded though with the speedo, speakers, and the gps mount...but oh well...where else can they go...lol.

the wheels and lowers add a great look to your bike. I think the black silver and chrome are more balanced now. I like the fairing, but, I think it would look better with taller bars. IMO take off the battery cover and go back to the stock exposed battery. I agree the silver motor looks great on there
