Default Thinking about going a different direction

Well. me and my exwife have gotten back together. I was going to do a 200 conversion on my 95 Softail. I am thinking about selling my Sante 200 kit that has everything to move the trans over with all the spacers, my heartland 8.5 struts and heartland (Jessie James) 8.5x28 fender. Then I can make my bike more comfortable for her and look good to boot.....lol. Was thinking about $1200.00. The Santee kit has never been installed, but the caliper bracket stop on the lower right arm has been removed. I was just going to weld a new one on when I did the mock up.

Well good for you guys! It's amazing what love can do....Perhaps you should sell the whole bike and buy an Ultra for Classic yourself and the little lady. That will really show her how much you love her ;-)

Good luck to you both....

Mark is great guy, and has a bad a$$ bike too! If you need a custom AC cover, he is the man for sure. I will have some pics of mine in a couple days.
