Thanks guys! Yeah Ive thought about doing a solid in back, but it looks pretty good. Pictures dont do it justice. I might do it later. As far as the rear fender, I could care less. I think it adds character to it!

Bike looks great. What year are the wide glide triple trees off of? Any problems with the trees hitting the tank? I've been thinking of doing that mod.

Thanks
