Guessing no bags 'cause the rails are gone. No seat....... You rarely hear me say this about an FXR, but if it were mine and missing as many original parts, I'd go with a full on custom build.

Yup. I have never even had the privilege of owning one but I agree. Putting forwards on one just makes it a mini bagger. <-- just my opinion.

Some nice lower bars with some engine enhancements like a w8 with high lift springs, roller rockers and newer cam bearing or just go w/ JIMS lifters, thunderheader and leave the engine paint as is. I'd roll on some stinky twinkie at a light rev her up, drop the hammer then wait at the next stoplight and ignore him, don't even acknowledge them. Lol

This one never had bags. Had a windshield ,crash bars front and rear, hinged seat(seat missing). Been looking at it.....don't think it worth me putting it back to FXRP. Pulled motor. Looks clean as hell don't have any idea why the top end overhaul got started. Screaming eagle front fork braces. Crappy bagger air shocks. Going to look for decent shocks a bit lower Least it stops me from pulling the other ones a part. Another 64 sportster just showed up needing a new home. But that will have to wait. Lol
