Just ordered a lowering kit, and 14" apes...

So I got the bike done today, much easier then I ever anticipated.....
All the cables worked fine, I just straightened out the 90DEG bends in the throttle cable.....
Took the bike for a ride today even though the weather was pretty crappy but I was to damn anxious to put it back away without trying it out....
I LOVE the way the bike handles now....Looks 100 X's better IMHO I hated parking it again...
Heres some pictures for every one...let me know what you think...Thanks for all the help everyone! the 1/4IN fuel line worked great.
Heres what it looked like before any changes...
Lowering shocks installed; can't really tell from the crappy picture
The Burly shock is on the left...I cranked it 2 notches.....for when the old lady gets on
Got the seat removed, both driver and pass seat....
Gas tank removed:
Old handle bars are removed, Cut the wires under the frame neck to be respliced later on...
Heres the new bars....
Compared to the old ones, I have to say, these new bars are a MUCH better improvement, much thicker, and much more solid...I was very impressed.
Final product: Handle bars on and done, front turn signals relocated, and the rear shocks on and done...left side mirror has been flipped....the right side mirror will be on once I figure out how to get the throttle cables around it...
One more shot after the ride, its extremely filthy, please don't mind!
Overall I am very happy with how it came out, I plan on ordering a stage 1 intake for the bike then having it tuned.....
Thanks for all the help everyone! If anyone needs help or questions do not hesititate to ask!
