Very nice looking FB, I was thinking of putting those bars on the wide glide, but I went w/ drags instead. Bike flows real well!

Thanks for the kind words guys. I still have a ways to go, but it's getting closer everyday. Still gonna tweak some more black pieces in and do something with the wheels.

As to the comments about running a single headlight versus the dual. I rocked the dual light for quite a while and then just wanted to see how the look was with the big 7". Honestly, some days I like the big single and others I miss the look of the duals. I think I am going to see about getting a different mounting block for the duals, one that pushes them out an inch or two and then see about running that setup.

It's a Harley Davidson part.

Interestingly the pulley is the item that I had to wait FOREVER to receive. There was a problem with the paint finish on four out of five pulleys that were received and returned. Paint runs, scratches, etc. Quality was really terrible. Even the HD parts guys were amazed at how crappy they were. Finally they got one that I was satisfied with.

Thanks, The rear shocks are 13" Ricors, sport tuned. I also have the Ricor Intimidators up front.

It's called a Chin Spoiler. It's an HD part that I've always had on my bike. The only difference is that NOW it's covering up the Tru-Track. I wasn't sure how that was gonna look and I don't know of anyone else that has done it but I like how it turned out.

"I think I am going to see about getting a different mounting block for the duals, one that pushes them out an inch or two and then see about running that setup."

I believe that placing the dual lamps farther away from the trees will really set them off and give an equally hefty front end look that the large single is now doing, but appear more subtle from a profile view.

That's what Triumph did with the earlier Speed Triples and it really help create the aggressive look of the bike. tomp dd50

Really nice - looks great.

Are those the Road 6 Customs bars? How do you like them? High quality? I'm thinking of putting them on my Springer this winter.

I saw one at my dealer past weekend. It is stunning, and it's not vivid black, either. Enjoy it. tomp dd50
