Default My Road Glide Rebuild

Guys

Just wanted to share a couple before and almost after pics. I am still working on finishing it up.

Long Story short, had a couple stupid mishaps and had an insurance claim. So decided to complete overhaul the bike. Change colors, new rear fender, bags, lids, inner fairing, Camtech Custom outer fairing, fastup air, new sound system etc etc. Anyway here is a teaser



First Starting out. Never been a fan of black, but bought the bike at a good price


Here is a couple parts painted. Went with Cadillac White Diamond Pearl


This is the Camtech front fairing. Before paint


Here it is as of yesterday


Need to install Custom Dynamics Taillights, fix gaps, and wire it up and install Front Fairing.

Alot of fans of black out there and it actually started to grow on me, but this White Diamond Pearl just pops, pics dont do it justice. It just seems every bike I see is black. wanted to go the other way

I should be able to get it all wired up tonight to give it a test run. I will keep you posted. The two amps are all wired and speakers just need to be terminated and patch cables ran. Then of course the fine tuning starts
