You could check me out at www.beyondthepaintinc.com , I've been doing this 30 years, quit my job last year to open a custom shop. Not getting rich, but I ain't stravin' either. Here's a taste of my our mural work!

Sanforf, thanks for the kind offer, but no way I could get it done by the weekend. I'm really not sure what you mean by "sheet metal" Is someone fabricating pieces for you?

Check out www.hotrodgrafixxx.com. They painted my Deuce and my dad's Fatboy. They were quick and much cheaper than other places. They are very easy to work with and very nice. I would recommend them to anyone. You should at least call them to get a quote on what you're wanting and also see what his ideas are. The pictures on his website don't do justice to his work. My bike is on his site as well as my dad's, but the paint looks so much better in person. They're located in Greer, SC.

He did mine and my dad's at the same time. He said if he had to split the cost up, he would do mine for $1,800 and my dad's for $2,200. That was with us riding our bikes in and dropping them off with him. So he had to take all the sheet metal off and put it back on.

Yep they are easybrackets. I love them. They are very easy to install and I can have it from a "heritage style" to the stripped down version in about 2-3 min. Thanks for the compliment. I would like to say that I am done with it but we all know how that is.

I said I was done with mine after the paint job, but I have a new list of parts now. I guess I'll never really be done. Just done until the next mod.

Here is a pic of it with the bags and sissybar. I have the windshield too. I dont really like the looks of it with the windshield but hell it is a must on the highway especially here in Germany where you have to run min 85 or 90 or else you get run over.
