Default Updated pics of the softy's

First, I am one of the lucky guys who's wife loves to ride as much as I do. When she got her Heritage, I was envious a little because I thought it was a great looking bike. She wanted a Deluxe but I persuaded her to buy the Heritage because it was a little less expensive and this being her first heavy weight bike I was afraid she would have trouble moving it around. Well, a few months ago she saw a Deluxe she just had to have and instead of selling the Heritage we opted on keeping it and she said I could fix it however I wanted to...she actually lets me do this to all the bikes really but she does have a big say on what goes on the Deluxe now. I would have gone with another pipe choice and seat choice but she liked them both and as long as she is happy I can continue playing. Here is a picture of her Heritage that I have pretty much taken control over and ride it almost exclusively.


And here is her Deluxe. I just lowered the back a little on it for her and put on the soft brake license relocation kit which really cleaned up the back of the bike.(thanks to everyone who posted about doing this)

Hey Badx... what kind of seat is that on your wife's Deluxe? That's an 08 right? I have an 08 and am looking for a 2up.

Its a Badlander seat that I had to modify to fit correctly. She had one on her Heritage(still on there) and for some reason she likes them. I fixed her stock seat for her, lowered her as much as possable and added memory foam but she said she just liked the way the badlander seat sat so I played around with it till I got it to work.

Nice bikes and your a very lucky guy to have a wife that is into bikes,


Although...I'm not sure what would be more expensive.... A wife who just liked shoping or a wife that liked shopping for her Harley ?? [sm=laughingsmilie.gif]

You are one lucky guy !!!![sm=smiley20.gif]
Those are some great looking bikes.
I really like those Big Radius pipes too. [sm=icon_cheers.gif]
That Badlander seat has always looked Bas A$$ to me.
What size Apes are those?

I'd give anything for a wife who liked riding her own bike. [sm=sigh.gif]
My wife won't even have anything to do with my bike.
