pics of DK Customs Velocity Stack and Breather Bolts installed
That's nice and clean look!! I considered the breather bolts before deciding on the catch-can set up. I was a little concerned about oil blow by or mist. From what I could find, it seemed like it was a little hit and miss, depending on the individual bike, let me know how they work out for you...they look great with the V Stack!!

Getting close to throwing in the towel on the stock seat options for the Rocker. Does the fender swap allow you to use stock Harley Softail seats such as from a Breakout or are you limited to custom seats? Also, as I believe we are both in the same county, where did you having your fender painted?

Thanks!
Because of the Rocker's long fuel tank and wide rear end, I don't think there's a stock seat that will work with a frame mounted rear fender. The one exception might be a stock FXCW Rocker seat, it's short like the Rocker C seat and would mount up, but I'm not sure how tight the back would hug the fender. The stock Breakout seat is too long, and won't work on the Rocker with the Thunderbike fender, I checked when I installed the fender and was looking at my options....
I've had all the painting done at Placerville Body Shop. The Thunderbike fender does not come paint ready, which sucks, but they did a fantastic job with the body work, and nailed the paint match!!
I was afraid your answer would be what it is My only other option is to source of Corbin Widowmaker with backrest (not a very pretty seat) or find someone to build a custom seat with backrest?
Your bike looks great and thank you for the quick reply!
