Springer Classic to Bad Boy
i was thinking about making this my winter project, converting my classic into a more "bad boy esque" style bike. just wondering if anyone out there has done the same or if anyone has any suggestions on how to go about it? The classic is what i have but i have vance and hines pipes pulled back to one side and 14" wide 1.5" apes(haven't gotten around to taking any photos yet)

You could swap the front rim for a 21incher. If the hubs are different find a local Indy HD shop and have them lace a 21inch hoop to your stock hub so that everything lines up properly. After that I would think that a rear fender swap, seat swap and bar swap would get you really close. Of course if you wanted it all black like the Bad Boy, some extensive time with a painter and a powder coater would be needed. You could get "close" without spending too much$$ though.

Wouldnt be very hard to make yours more Bad Boy-Esque....
Swap out your heritage fender for a bobbed one. Lower the bike front and rear. Toss the front fender and put on a 21" skinny front wheel, add a few powdercoated black pieces here and there, swap yer floorboards for a set of extended foward controls and pegs and youre golden.
A twin cam Bad Boy would be....Bad!!

They are giving em' away on E-Bay....Low mileage "Cream Puffs".
Shippin' is cheap. I live in Colorado...My bike was bought in Atlanta and i gave $500 to ship it to my door.
Best move I've done in a while as I bought the bike from a fellow member here and he had it on E-Bay as well....Bike arrived cleaner and more pristine than described. Saved me almost 3 grand from what guys around here were trying to sell for!
