Thank you! Bag in the pic came from Carroll Leather. It was listed as an oversize tool bag. They discontinued it though. I run a 180 Perelli Night Dragon in the back.

Thanks, they are the Harley rigid locking leather wrapped bags in the catalog. I have more shots of them on the bike if you want to see them. One of my favorite functional mods on the bike by far.

LIKE MY 200MM ***!!!
Stock 2010 fender. All holes welded shut, except for the seat bolt. Its been lowered and repainted the stock black denim. Work was done by Rick @ Southeast Custom Cycles.

That 200mm looks real good but is it a true 200mm or one that measures 190mm? I didn't know a 200mm could fit under our fender without rubbing, etc? I see you have to remove the turn signals because there is no room for the wiring. I like the look but I will stick with my 180mm in the back.

At first I didn't run any signals. But, if you look closely you will see some 1inch LED Tru-Flex strips mounted to the top of the rear shocks. I only have them wired as brake/turns and not as running lights. I still don't run any front signals. I use my hands.
No rubbing at all but you are correct, no room for wires either. Suits my minimalist bike just fine though. Those bulbs in those bullet lights reminded me of XMAS.

It's as true as Metzeler says it is. It's the ME880 200/50/18 tire. I am pretty sure it runs wider than the Avon 200 tire you are thinking of.

Looks good. A guy at an indy shop here told me it could not be done. He said mabye a 190mm tire.
