I have the same bike, same color. I've already done the following...
- V&H Straight shots, for that 'classic' HD look. (Stage 1 with PC V pack)
- removed all reflectors
- new C&C 2-up seat with stitch flames
- Ginz Choppers 25" sissy bar
- Burly slammers on the rear, dropping it to 10.5" shocks
- Chrome outer primary, cam cover, coil cover, fuse box
- relocated front turn signals to under triple tree added smoked lens and visors to front and rear (looks awesome on the front end)
- chrome Kuryakin Trident mirrors
- chrome HD hand grips
- chrome Willie G grips, pegs, controls and added heel supports
- chrome HD rear axle bolt covers (makes a big difference)

Still to do...
Bullet front light
14" Wild 1 Apes with all new SS cables

Then I "think" I'll be done.

Yes, it's a ton of money spent, but you don't die with it... why not enjoy it. I love the look of my Dyna, and with the color it gets a lot of looks and compliments everywhere I park it.

Its all personal preference really it looks good how it is but you could also do TONS more. Ideas if it were mine would be pipes, A/C, dyno tune, bars, cover ft and rear axel nuts, go back to stock on rear lights (sorry not a fan of the center light), rims, lower the rear and if you want the ft as well. Good luck bike looks nice the way it is minus the reflectors!

JR,

Maybe some pics of your bike would give the OP some more concrete ideas of what's possible?

I'd like to see them too. :-)

It does look good as it is but that seat is the worst seat harley has ever made. Try an aftermarket seat and your rear will thank you. They also make a set of Black Fat bars that will match your engine guard bar real nice. I would also relocate the turn signals off the bars and remove the reflectors. Nice Bike!

I'd get those chrome covers for the axle nuts and brake calipers. Really finishes the bike off nice.
