RE: cross bones

Hey guys, thanks for the replies. I'm loving my bones. Ok, here's the break down:
Pipes are Samson Big 3 Fishtales with half powder coated and half chrome
Sissy bar is a chrome stock HD that was sent to the powder coaters
Lowering kit in back and changed stock 3 inch seat springs to 2 inch from JP Cycles
I do have a question. I have purchased a swing arm bag from JP Cycles and was wondering if anyone else has this bag and how they attached it. Did you use the straps that came with it or use something else?

RE: cross bones

I also wanted to mention to you to check the large nuts that go over the alan bolts on the main front forks. Mine came in loose and this is something they don't normally check when the bikes are PDI'd. It should be checked at the factory and set at 154 tork pounds. I was told by the dealer that I am a very lucky man and this has been added to their check list and they will inform Harley.

RE: cross bones

Awsome bike! Did you have any problems with the Sampson Fishtales and your rear turn signal?

Love the pipes, but you don't look old enough to have a drivers license.

RE: cross bones

Thanks BMR. The pipes cleared the tail lights by a good quarter inch. Good one Texas Fat Boy. That's my son and he's just hoping that I keep that bike until he gets his license.
