Default '69 FLH finished
Hey All;
I finished putting the '69 FLH back together and thought you'd like to see some photos of the finished product. Thanks to all that helped out with sage advice.

Thanks All
I'm still missing one saddlebag lid reflector #59253-69. They're discontinued and damned near impossible to find. Thanks to a heads up from LilRosie, I found a pair on ebay for $60 and one was broken. I know how supply and demand works but come on. Any help in laying hands on one would be greatly appreciated.
