Default Apes and Chrome Front End Complete !!
Finally got to take my bike for a ride after installing Apes, Chrome Front End and Stainless Steel Cables.

12.5" Wild1 Chubby's (Internal Wiring)
1.5" Risers
HD Poly Bushings
HD Chrome Switch Housings
HD Chrome Master Cylinder
HD Chrome Levers
HD Grips
HD Chrome Front End
HD Stainless Steel Cables

Did everything myself and saved some money.

Not yet but I will, I wanted to get top billing first and show off a bit.... I'm proud of myself for getting this all done by myself. It was alot of work all at once but well worth it!!


Thanks !!

Thanks...

The Forks went well except I stripped one of the 6mm Damper bolt Hex Head. Spent about 2 hours getting it out but other than that it's not a hard job at all but you will need to remove the entire Headlight and Lightbar assembly to get to the Pinch bolts and to swap out those Upper Covers(Cowbells).
