Default My Nightglide SS

I built me a FuelMoto 107 with ported t-body, woods 777, level B heads, Thundermax ecm, Bassani roadrage exhaust, Jim's USA handcrafted tappet blocks, Performance machine primary, speaker bezels, 6 piston caliper, fast air intake, countour mirrors, RSD platinum domino wheel, front resevior cover, grips, rocker boxes, tranny cover, clarity cam cover, Klockwerks wrap fender, Battastinnis windshield trim, ignition switch cover, rear brake pedal, heel toe shifter, inner shift arm, I-beam shifter linkage, bag latches, filter cover, rear passenger pegs, Carl Brouhard floorboards and rear resevior cover, Yaffe 12" monkey bars, stretch tank, stealth plate, snake eye tailights, grab bar spikes, brake and clutch levers, led front turn signals, HID headlight, Chrome dome horn cover, Dakota Digital dash, Kenwood stereo, Fosgate amp, 4- 6.5 speakers, Odyssey agm battery, Image cycles talon kickstand, custom stitched fake ostrich seat and probably some other stuff I'm forgetting. Yes, it runs as good as it looks. I haven't dyno'ed it but from a 2800 roll it will pick the front end off the ground and pulls hard to 5700. I did all the work myself except for painting the front fender, tank and inner fairing and seat, since I bought the bike last august. I've wanted a street glide since they were first introduced, and now mine is exactly the way I want it.

Wow that is a sick looking bike.
I gotta ask a tacky question, How long did it take ya, and how much $$ do you have in it now.
It worth every penny!

Just noticed the Tags, we are neighbors

Thanks guys, not bad for a homebuilt non raked bike without stretched bags and fender. Oh yeah I forgot the Arnott air ride, progressive track link and fork cartridges. I ride my bike pretty hard and those stretched bags would be getting tore up! I'm wondering how much it weighs now that everything has been stripped off or been replaced with billet. I guess I'll find me a scale somewhere and find out. Whats the stock 08 SG weigh, like 750ish??
