Default Winter Mods are finally done

Well the snow started to fall and as well as my parts... Got my parts just in time to work in a warm garage.. Put on Arlen Ness quarter Fairing, Road 6 Custom 10" Apes, DK Customs Outlaw 587 breather, and RSD Chrono Brass grips.









And the full side view



And the next mod will be the 1k service...lol

Looks good.

Are those nice and rigid? My main gripe with apes/mini-apes is how much they flex. This bike is just for cruising, BUT, I will still probably toss it around a little.

Sure got me beat, haven't even got the wheels off my Glide yet. Last two months of the year I always feel like I don't have any personal time - even after I retired. Still have plenty of time, roads are usually heavily salted here till April - last year till May.

They are very sturdy, no movement with a lot of downforce to them

Good to know, as those are the bars I have been going back and forth on for the last month.
I can tweak th stock bars pretty good, in opposing directions, etc without much effort.

Thanks,
Chase

Lookin' good!! Do you think you could go to 12 inch apes without a problem? Been thinking of putting 12 inch on mine, but don't want to get into doing cables right now.

ya according to road 6 customs we can. They said they have had plenty of customers go up to 12 but they had to route their cables differently. The two wires that are internal have the slack to go up. Clutch and brake should have no problem, all i had to do was loosen up the brake hose to move it out a little. Only problem i see it throttle/idle cables but thats why i stayed with the 10".
