Default 98 FXD Mods ... not done, but close

So I have been working little by little get my Super Glide the way I want it. I'm bobbin it out I guess you could say. I put some pics up and would appreciate any feed back! I still have the PM Fast Air Intake coming and yet to put on, and I am cutting the rear fender and moving the side lights that are already run, turn brake to the back bolt, and also lowering the rear with lower shocks.

Here are some pics. Also in my sig is a link to photobucket with more pics of the transformation since I can only post 5 here.

looking good man! man i have to be honest i really really dig the twin fish tail pipes!!! in black those would be sick... i think that if you black out those wheels or at least in the negative space on them it would really change the look and make it look more "modern"... love the fat bob bars on there... swap out those turn sigs up front or relocate them... will really clean up the front... nice work man

true, they do scream old school, but I just didn't like the overall look with what I was going for. I actually saved money and just cut em to what I wanted and modified em to give me what I was looking for without the cost of new pipes.

Here is what she looks like now. A little more done.
