Default NEW to Me 2012 Custom
Just bought a 2012 Custom with mini-apes. Two-tone, red and black. Vibration dampening grips and pegs.

As you probably know, they're not real easy to find with apes. SOme of the 1200CPs have mini-apes, but last time I counted on Cycle Trader, there were 10 for sale in the entire country.

And some of the XL1200Cs with mini-apes leave the speedos in the original position, which in my opinion looks hideous. This one has it right.

I pick it up next week and brothers am I pumped.

Will post better pics then.

Absolutely. Can be a bad little bar-hopper or you can set it up to cruise or tour.

It looks like the color is Candy Orange and beer bottle to me.

Great looking bike, I have a 2013.
