What happens when you run the cable behind the trees??? My wife's Shadow's cables are like that from the factory but I don't often see Harleys routed like that. If it doesn't bind I guess it should be OK.

When I run it behind the trees it pokes out the right side of fork tubes about this far, and rests snugly against the fork tubes and upper triple tree, which may be abrasive over time.

Waved goodbye to it as I head up to North Dakota for work. Lot of bikes on the road. Not a whole lot of Dynas. Wish I was on the bike.

Bags and full fender on. Definitely not going the minimalist approach. Oh well, I like this style. Still need to swing by the dealer to flash the BCM.

Spent all of 5 minutes removing my tank lift until after my Colorado trip is finished. Can't handle that light coming on at 100 miles!!! I'll put it back on after I get home.

Well, I adjusted the angle/height of the levers/lever clamps. Adjusted the mirrors a little and the blinkers. Adjusted a little, then said nahhh, adjusted a little more, then nahhh, finally I said to hell with it, looks good, feels right! The blinkers clear the tank/tank caps when turned full left or right by about a half inch.

Got a package in from Italy today. 13.5" ODC piggybacks:



Here they are installed on the bike:


After Italy reopens next month, I'll be getting their inverted front end. I'm going to go with the DLC coated tubes to keep the whole frontend black.

Took some pictures of the bike in its current state. Waiting for the new front brake line. I need to tackle the clutch cable but really just need to take a few days off the bike.

It has the one inch lowering blocks on it, which are rated at 250 lbs with the shocks fully compressed. I weigh in at 237. The bike looks better with the 1.75 lowering blocks on it. But those are rated at 180 lbs. I'm on a diet.

The bike is getting a Night Dragon 180/60 rear tire in the near future. I need a better jack/lift first.

The rear tire that is on it now is a Dunlop K591 160/70. It could be the original tire for all I know.
