Default My 2005 Nightrain with it's recent mods

Hi everyone. I'd like to post a few pics of my 05 Nightrain. It started bone stock like 'em all. All the work including the paint was done at my house in my two car garage.
Mods include
95" Big bore with cams and ported heads
Screaming Eagle aircleaner
Xzotic "Top Fuel" exhaust
9" Strutless rear fender (modified)
RWD front fender (modified)
RC Component wheels, brake rotos, rear pulley
18x5.5 w/Avon 200 tire
21x2.15 w/Avon tire
Sumax chin spoiler
Ultima solo seat with gel insert
Kuryakyn flush mount LED fuel gauge and gas cap
HD "Skull" collection footpegs, grips, shifter peg and brake pad
Arlen Ness 4" extended forward controls
Carlini drag bars, internally wired
Paint is all House of Kolor
Pearl black base with silver marbelizing. Kandy Brandywine over that. Flames are pearl white base with Kandy Brandywine and Kandy Burgundy over them, all covered in House of Kolor clear.
Probably a couple more things I forgot. Anyway, let me know what you think of it. Like all bikes, it's a work in progress

As someone who really loves the way Nightrains look straight out of the crate,I have to say that is one of the hottest looking modified Trains I've seen !!!

Yes, did all the work, including the paint. I've been doing custom paint and body work as a side business for about 15 years. Got out of it for a while. Figured it was time to see what I could still do. Actually, the rear fender is an Ebay deal. It was originally meant to fit a pre-2000 Softail. A few cuts here and there, a little sheetmetal work, and a little mig work and it worked fine.
