Default My Crossbones

So here's my 08 xbones. Got a killer deal off craigslist and started making changes the day I got it. I'm probably going to end up changing the rear fender but I like it so far. Had to move the headlight a little forward for the windvest - just got too used to it. Using a sportster solo bag right now but need to get one made for the softail. So much to do so little $.

Good looking bike, the badlander seat takes away from the crossbones look.

Good looking bike! But have to agree with oct1949 on the sissybar.
What year/model is that front fender from?

It looks good but it seems a little out of balance with the bobbed rear fender and the full front fender. I would probably go back to the chopped front until I was ready to change the rear.

But if you're gonna do all that shouldn't you have gone with the Springer Classic?

Just get a fatboy rear fender and call it a day, it will be balanced and old school. I went to my stealer, and they claim, well don't sell the front like yours for the crossbones, so are questioning if the old springer front would work, alot of himmmm and hhaaaaa, we would have to see, no straight answer..because its not out of the catalog. Any help on parts needed? would solve my problem
