Default Pearls Transformation....

This is Pearl, my FLSTC, Heritage Classic....She's an 08'. I bought her several years ago with only 1,800 miles on the clock. I've ridden this bike all over the southern United States. Once I hit 50,000 miles on her I bought a bagger and decided to relegate her to local duty only. Also decided to make some big changes to her, something I've been thinking of for a while.

This is how I had her set up to travel.....






and her every day look.....

I ordered some Ridewright wheels...went the whole enchilada and ordered new brake rotors and a new pulley as well....

Put her on the lift last night and finished her up today. Rear tire is dirty in the pics. Had my greasy hands on her too much I guess.

Love the Ridewright wheels. Went with a 21" up front and same size 16" rear. I think she came out pretty good....
