Thanks Aaron! Most of the ideas have come from the guys on this board. They are very helpful in letting you know what looks good and what looks like crap! I am always open to their suggestions. I will keep the pics coming...

Pussboy,
I read you like the Burly narrow apes but need the bottom to be just wide enough for the Springer front end. I am also considering this move…if you find something let me know.
