Default removing the headlight nacelle

I've got a 2006 fatboy. It's mostly stock, and I like it a lot. One thing that I have never been fond of is the nacelle and the beer cans on the fork tubes. Does anybody have any pictures of a fatboy without them? I'm thinking about just leaving them off, but I'm having a hard time picturing it. I was looking at it at work tonight. How much has to come off the bike to get that stuff off?

Nacelle like a Road King type nacelle or the stock headlamp system? You wil have to roll back the fuel tank, disconnect the headlight harness, remove the fork tins, pull the forks and remove the cowbells.

If you have a nacelle, rmove the headlamp, then 4 bolts on the side to remove the nacelle, then remove handle bar clamp. Drop the forks, remove the cow bells.
