Default ***made a few small changes***

I added the switchback battery cover and i am really diggin it so far. i think it gives the bike that look the older dynas have....since im making my own version of an fxdx/t

I ordered the cover P/N:66444-12dh from lakeshore HD and had it within a week.





i also added the tri-glide 30t pulley & heavier clutch spring this past weekend and it makes a big difference on the low end....definitely worth it.



next up will be the fxdx wheels and dual disk brakes and lastly will be leather pros t-sport bags and my bike will OFFICIALLY BE DONE! yes i said it DONE!

That looks good on there!

I'm about to open mine up and finish the 30t upgrade, did you buy all the tools or make your own? I've seen it done both ways on here and usually just make my own....I don't want to spend hundreds of dollars for tools I'll use once, maybe twice.

I told my buddy about the 30t pulley and he ended up buying all the tools and we guinea pigged his bike. So i just used his tools...his bike took about a day or two since he didnt have everything, member vuoso86 did his and it took them 3-1/2 hrs and i did mine the same night and it took us just over 2 hrs..

I know, ive changed a lot of stuff on my bike over the last 6 yrs but im finally coming to the end of modding it....i dont have the need to build the motor more or paint it so once the last of my list is completed im just gonna focus on riding, maintainence and focus on getting a house for my family...ive spent too damn much money on this bike for mods that i could of payed cash for a sporty or payed this one off..
(dont tell my wife that haha)
