Default Wide Glide

OK here are some shots of my '07 Wide Glide. Seems I cannot make up my mind on how I want it to look.

I love the stripped down look also, but I always have to have a plac efor all the gear the military makes me wear to be safe.

It is a toss up for me on if I move the turnsignals down to the forks. Part of me says keep them up, signature HD lighting. Part of me say clean up the handle bars as much as possible... LOL
Your WG looks good. I am liking the tail light. I almost went with the Skull on the sissy bars too. I went with a gold Bar and shield to go with the gold in the pinstripes.

I love the way that headlight looks on your bike.&nbsp\\; I have wanting something along that line for awhile but haven't been able to decide on one without seeing it on the bike.&nbsp\\; What kind of light is that and what are the dimensions?&nbsp\\; 9 inch?

Thanx, It is the HD Bullet light.. 5 3/4 inches..... Goes great with the turn signal visors... Was a little on the expensive side but nothing else matched the turnsignal visors for the complete look.

My 2008 FXDSE2 has a 4.5" rear with a 170mm(stock) tire which is the widest I can go on this wheel.
