Default Some 'Slim' changes

had some time to take some quick picks of the small changes Ive been able to get too..keepin the black chrome black chrome patterns in the hardware....there is sense to it





soft tail slim risers







chrome nostalgic engine guard




with stubby arms like a T Rex this works for me
added the lower debris deflector also to replace the plastic stock one. Shiny now...

I have a sundowner seat ready for the conversion to a weekend mini bagger. going to get the detachable hard leathers. Dont really like the shape of the back of the seat so It might go back. Still want one custom made. Seats for these are like shoes you should have at least 2

And hey you Kiwis? dont think the people selling this stuff are just robbers over theres. They mug ya heres for this stuff too


my other half adds.." Can you fix him? He says hes Broke"

to have the options of the detachable hardware for the bags and bars these bikes are easily convertible from solo to 2 up in matter of minutes. A little turn of the shocks to compensate for a load your road ready for a long weekend. Get home strip it off you ready to run down to the strip and drag it some around the corners.

I have an idea for an auxillary stop light mounted on the fender when its solo for people can see me better too. An LED bar that mimics the fender shape all the way across the back. Thanks you all for peeking at keep in touch for some more changes.
