Default A Few Highway Mods For My FXDC

Getting ready for a 1200 mile trip this month, and added a few things to my 2011 Super Glide:

Saddlemen Explorer Seat
Detachable Sissy Bar and Luggage Rack
Kuryakyn Longhorn Highway Pegs
Kuryakyn Full Dresser Bag

I got the larger back rest, in hopes that it will allow my wife to take short rdies with me again. If so, we'll probably get her the passenger floorboards too.

Really like the setup. When you have a chance could you post a side view (exhaust side) so I can see how the seat looks? I have a sundowner seat and I just don't like the way it looks on the bike. It's to BIG. Thanks!!

I put the Kury Dually pegs (same as you have on your hwy bar) on the passenger pegs and my wife really likes them. Definitely an improvement over the stock pegs.

Thanks for the compliment.

It is a Harley quick detach windshield.

I'm not sure what size. I had the dealer install it and a crash bar when I bought the bike last year, and that's what they provided.

I've thought about getting a lower windshield like on the Switchbacks.
