I like the dials way better than anything digital.. The tach is more useful on bike than my car

 

Any pics with the rinehart installed yet? I looked at my heritage and don't think it will fit as my axle is about an inch below the top of the muffler.

 

Looks awesome. Another "chopped" road-king.
Pics of mine attached.

 

The OP said he was waiting on his rinehart 2-1 exhaust. I have that exhaust and it seems it won't fit with hard bags.

The thunder header you have is smaller at the muffler as the rineharts have a megaphone style muffler and it looks like it might interfere

 

I put the hard bags on mine. I like the way it looks. It does seem to take away from the heritage look. But mine was not a good looking heritage when i got it. all the leather was sun burnt and cracked. Looks alot better now I have changed all the ugly stuff.



when I bought it . 2 years sitting in the sun.





since this pic the seat has been recovered and I am having the rims powder coated gloss black should look even better when I finish

 

My OEM heritage bags has lid stiffens and looked great.. Just a hassle to use in more ways than one.
That's the reason I went to hardbags...
The old style h/bags are not well designed, imo.
So it only made sense to get ones that i could use one handed.
New hard bags are designed for that, couldn't find any cheap enough.
So i bought 07 police bags and flush popups.
Highly recommend it..

 

Rbeam, put them on today. Plenty of clearance with stock height. I get a better picture in the morning.

 

Is your latch lit up or is it reflected?

 

reflection from my flash, took pic at night in garage. that would be kinda cool though

 

Better pics with new rinehart exhaust
