I know this is off topic but what the hell is a Hogmany???
Ya'll got a bunch of pigs over there????????
Is that the spare bedroom ... or ... the spare bikeroom :>) Nice job.
Hi Larry, spare nothing,its my lounge/living room. Bedrooms are for parts. Where is the Hell that you are living 15 mins from?
Have a great 2016. Bungo

Good question thc.! Never checked what Hogmanay means but we have been celebrating Hogmanay (new years eve night) for a few hundred years as far as I know. We Scots (UK). are probably told what it means every New Years Eve but we get so drunk during the celebrations that we forget the meaning and then dont think about it until the following year.!! Dont think its anything to do with pigs although Google may well prove me wrong.Sir Graham may know the meaning. I hear he makes furtive visits up north to Scotland when the weather is too warm in the South (England). !!

There's a simple frame loop to which a license plate attaches (below).
Dechrome and powder coat the rear frame covers black, powdercoat the loop to match.
I'd also remove the front fender guard and scale down the bling (chrome extras).
If you want rear luggage, find a close fit fender mounted carrier. Recommend chrome for that as paint will rough up or scratch. Keep the bags on.
Hi BM, managed to source a new chrome loop/number plate fitment locally (Edinburgh UK) for Ł50. Will probably order the rear Rack as in your pic. Will see how it all looks on bike and if not happy with bling will probably do what you suggest...de-chrome and paint or powdercoat Black.
Have a great New Year.
I'm liking the wide white wall tires! Maybe I just haven't picked up on it before, but I don't think many of the newer baggers have the wide white walls. I think I'm going to go that route on my next tire purchase for my bagger.

Yeah, Look_Out, the Wide whitewalls look good. There was 1 narrow whitewall on the Ultra when I bought it but it looked grim so I removed it promptly..
