Default Springer upgrade
So I bought a 2004 Springer thsi spring and have been going through making it my own for the first year. This is the original day it entered my garage photo. It had a few extra pieces of Chrome, some aftermarket 9" mini apes, some goudy turn up 2 3/4" baffle free, blow the rider behind your ear drums exhaust, shaved pop up fuel gauge and cap, and the rest is stock.

Default Handlebar update
The next picture is a handlebar upgrade. I went with 17" Todd's Cycles Springer bar. Love them by the way. I also added an LED package

Default Teardown
Next step is paint. Last week the tin was tore down and boxed up to send to Utah to Time Warp Motorcycle Co. Grand ideas for the paint should see it in 2-3 weeks hopefully.
