Bike looks great. I always worry when stopping on a road like that some jacka$$ cruising in a pick-up not paying attention whiping out my bike.

Looks rad.

Appreciate the kind words.
Wheels are being saved for...just will wait for my final decision

-The flush caps are fine so far. I read the negative post on leds. I guess I will be able to post on them when I put more than 35 miles on them.
-The license plate hole cover and license plate holder are Kuryakyn pieces. The cover is about $15...and the holder $100.
-The air cleaner is off an EVO with a Joker cover. It fit so I put it on.
-The seat is a Mammoth choppers solo.

removing your signals makes it look really nice. I cannot remove mine because 05 and later bikes in Oklahoma they are required. I really wanted to go with a solo seat, but I the majority of my riding is to work and the gym. both cases I have to carry a backpack. the pack rests on the passenger pillion.
I am really considering the flush gauge and plate holder.
I am tapped for awhile after new wheels.

The taillight has the signals built in...an amber arrow illuminates inside the red leds. the front signals are built into the mirrors. They are also yellow when lit, but clear when off.

Very nicely done! IMO, your bike has a 'muscular' look to it...love the fenders. My vote is for the 2nd set of wheels.

I have seen those taillights, they are nice. Oklahoma was real specific when they wrote the law about them having to be out side the widest portion of the bike front or rear. I am actually illegal having my signals on my forks. I could argue it in court because with the beach bars they would hit the tank, thus, not functional on the bars.
But in the rear, they have to extend past the out sides of the rear fender.

Kentucky is light on flashing lights. Don't really need them based on law, just on common sense.

I loved the smooth struts and the style they bring, but I lost saddlebags. I could cup on a rear seat and throw over some if I had to I guess. I will probably grab a roll bag for the front and just call it a day tripper.
