hats of to you brother that looks sweet and is only going to get better 
i think it would look more aggresive without the crash bars but after being lucky once in that last accident only you can call weather you want to spin the wheel of chance again and leave em of.
could you do me a favour elliot and next time your there get a close up of the sissy to fender tie in method nick has used. i am having some probs with mine trying to work loose alittle and its starting to **** me off. i would like to see how nick has tackled it.
i would agree with the masses also about the plateing. a/c fuel gauge etc needs it. MAN you landed so lucky finding nick harley would have just returned it to stock and maybe suggested some killer leather tassles off the levers were he has knocked it out the ball park dude. that thing is going to be in a mag shortley im sure of it so well done YOU.

Hey Cameron! Yes, I feel like I stepped in $h!t, as we say here in the U.S.. The right place at the right time. I'd be happy to check out the tie in method for you, but it will take a couple of weeks until Nick gets back from Sturgis. I wont be back at the shop until then.
no probs bud
i take it your keeping the rsd a/c ?

No. I think the bike is busy enough. It needs a plain filter. I have to get back to the first person who inquired about it. You are 2nd. And there is a 3rd if you are not interested. LOL I have to tell all of you that there is a small, barely noticeable scratch in it. It would be completely unnoticeable if placed so it faces downward. The scratch will be reflected in the price.

There is a piece made by Kyle Shorey that allows the fender to mount to the swing arm. That is the only way this can be done on a softail. If you have a frame mounted fender THIS close to the tire, they will hit each other every time you go over a bump. With the fender mounted to the swing arm, the fender actually moves up and down in conjunction with the tire. I have never seen his conversion piece used on a fatboy, but it would probably work.

looking GREAT!
let me know if you want the contact for the brass gauge....
I haven't got any pictures on the bike... but have installed them and IMO they look pretty darn good...
I'm going to have him work on the switch and the chrome ring around the speedo...
I don't think the crash bar has to go... the gloss black blends in with the frame...
the gas cap is cool... not sure about the brushed alum... might need a color change on that... kind of up in the air right now for me...
let me know who I need to contact about the top support on the springer...
I need one of them!
Also thanks to you and Cammy... I defiantly need to shorten up my rear fender!
