Thumbs up Full rebuilt
Well, my accident was for the best this year on my 2012 FXDWG! Woman came out of a parking lot and ran me over on the right side .... ended up replacing tons of parts and did a full rebuilt and paint job.

Still working on the airbrush job but it's coming well.
So, ended up changing : Rims, 200X17 back tire, front rake 37.5dg +4", 2.5" extended front pedal, Chromed lower fork tube, full chrome switchs housing and buttons, Kuryakyn Crusher exhaust, braided brake line, 4" Speedo and lots of chrome here and there.

Radical paint job on the frame and parts but it's my style lol
I had the frame clear coated with Imron and will also do the rest. I just hope that my front end will drive OK with this setup

Anyhow, here's a few pics in progress of winter project

Before :


After:







I will add more pics when it will totally be done .... in a few weeks loll

I'm going to go out on a limb and say this isn't the first bike teardown you've done..lot of work taking down to the frame and reassembling.

LoL ... no, in deed and yes ... lots of work to get everything out and back in!!
Freaking harness is a pain in the but with all the electronics
But with some patience and a few pics and shop manual, we end up doing what we want

It's a cool project tho.

Tks guys

I'm guessing you took the engine out first? I had to remove the tranny with the engine in frame..not fun.
