Now that you mention it, the silver bikes would look real nice with some blacked out parts. Hit the dash, strut covers and front end to start with and it would really look good.

Yes, I ceated a little, the front wheel is to suit a softail, I am running two primary bearing with the ABS spacer mounted on the right side, disc's are h/d teardrop in crome .

A little thinking, and a little help from the friendly local machinist , half day playing with it ,

and the bars are Burleigh brand( aus) Western

i bought em off ebay , they where NOS, using the PCV tuner , it elimanates the 02"s, 2 flat washer shimms between the frame and right floor board mount, gives me 1/4 clearence..

First time I heard my bike with the Fat Cats on it, I got this big ole grin on my face and it stayed like that until well after I got the bike home.

Folks, Bundy is a class act. Just finished some business with him and it went very well. He's an honest man.

Thanks Jason and I'm sure you will love that D&D system.

Yes, I think the silver would be an outstanding candidate for all of that.
I can't wait for someone to get really bold and do a springer like bikerlaws' as well.
