CO Wide Glide
as some of you know, i'm new to this forum. i posted my intro already. i don't plan on doing a whole lot to the bike as i like how it looks now. but there are a few changes i'm going to make over time.
build plan (i'll * when complete) :
louder slip ons*
license plate/turn signal relocation bracket
upgrade rear sissy bar to provide actual backrest
rear brake light set in backrest
saddle bags
black vance and hines pipes
upgrade air intake/filter
LED's all around
pics.....
at the dealer the day i brought it home....
at the house completely stock.....
swapped out the stock mufflers for python slip ons. much improved in terms of sound. nice throaty rumble loud enough to be heard but not so loud as to be obnoxious.
you can see the length difference between the stock muffler and pythons...
riding around in the winter...
taking family for ride before knee surgery....
that's all for now.....i've ordered the great bike gear license plate/turn signal relocation bracket. while i don't think it's really worth $130 its cheaper than the harley one and a shipping was $0.01. literally. 1 penny. once it comes in i'll post more pics...
oh yea, the harley relocation kit is a metal bar about the diameter of the sissy bar that wraps around the fender and has two little posts that the turn signals attach to if anyone is wondering.
