Nice stems for the mirrors. I just got a pair with tear drop mirrors. They wouldn't fit on the stock bars, or they would; but the angle was all messed up and couldn't adjust the mirror low enough.

Changed my bars a week ago, tried again and they work great. Changes the whole front end of the bike for me. Love 'em.

Nice ride man.

Nikonf8,
I think my wife began to realize that it was more than I led on but more than that she said I became obsessed with mods............she was right. I was freaking addicted but now I am stepping back for a bit.
Demkay,
What bars did you put on? Post a pic of the changes.
Thanks for the compliments.
Rick

Ajwatt,
You may be right but these were things I have been wanting to do to the bike. Now, other than some small stuff here and there, my only big mod in the future is a custom paint job. Probably winter time.
The way I look at it is that if all my bills are paid and all the mods are paid in cash, it's all good.
Ride safe

Demkay,
Me likes it. I bought similar mirrors but they were too small for me to see behind me. So I changed them.
Your rake looks like a softail custom, don't know if it's your bars or the deflectors that give it that appearance.
Nice ride man

Think you must mean the angle of the forks going down to the wheels. On that pic it does look like a big angle. I heard that before when I watched something about choppers.

Anyhow, I haven't ridden her yet with the new mirrors, I'm pretty sure it's gonna take getting used to, as the HD ones were pretty big.

Thanks, I love my bike. Only got a few more things and she's finnished.

Oh, and spend wtf you like on your bike, hell, it's your money. Most women have more in shoes than me in mods. .........ok, make that clothes.
