Default crossbones fender shadetree fab

I just wanted to show anyone whos interested what a supreme job kyle shorey from shadetree fab has made of my new fender.

he has made me a axle mounted sissy and custom fitted a paul yaffe maltese cross tail light. he has made the brackets for the heartland tears and generally figured out how to make what i wanted work. he is the one in the picture holding the bracket and blinker to the sissy to show my how to put it back together at my end.

- this will be me when i get it fitted.

That looks incredible! Post pics as soon as you can.
I ordered a similar set up, only in black denim and no cross. I need to strap a bag on the sissy bar for work. Instead I ordered the turn signals that double as brake lights, mounted on the sissy bar, like yours.

Are you going to move the battery and lower the seat like the original one?

no im not going to move the battery i didnt realize it was on the original.
i currently have a larosa seat on and its fine so im not going to play with it anymore just now.
you must have inquired about this a while ago because i remember kyle thinking i wanted black denim which would have been a dissaster for me. it was in the nick of time that we realised it was supposed to be gloss and not denim.

I have been inquiring for a while now, but only just committed to it last week.
If you are not lowering the seat, then I DEFINITELY want to see pics. If its not necessary, I would just as soon skip that headache.

Looks Awesome!
love the small dual pinstripe....

C. Numb... you do not have to lower the seat!... you will have to modify the battery cover....
