- Repainted twice
- 23"\17" Wheels
- HD Tri-Glide Raked Trees
- Front/Rear air-ride
- All internal wiring, internal hydraulic lines (clutch and brake), internal air lines
- Audio
- 180 Rear conversion
- A lot of bolt-on parts
- A few homemade parts (exhaust, bar-mounted air-ride controls, flame-thrower, electric center-stand)


I can provide info on all of the mods, PM me if you want any specific information.

Great looking RG. I'm planning on getting one in the next few weeks and was thinking of doing the same bars. How's the quality? Any regrets?

Only regret I didn't buy a RG sooner. I bought a used RGU July 15' it had issues but what a ride. Traded it in June 16 on this one. I had a SG for 7 years. Great bikes. But there's something about the RG. I love this bike.

The Factory 47 bars are perfect. Chrome is perfect. I have the matching bag guards too. They'll leave a mark if you're not careful. Lol.

I've done a bunch to it in the year I've had it. It's lowered an inch up front. Progressive mono tubes. Black Quartz color matched cow bells chrome lowers. All LED lighting. Ciro bag extenders. What a ride. Just about to hit 12k on it. And we have a short season up here. So that's about 6 months riding. You'll love the RG.

I love the look of your bike, the front wheel is sick. I just go a 16 Street glide and was wondering what height bar you would have gone with instead of the 13 in apes? I am 6ft tall.

13" Arlen Ness Modular Bars. Love them, easy to wire, and adjustable pullback. My arms and wrists are happy
