Yeah CSR the temp here is 23 degrees, so I had to have it delivered. I've decided to go with the RSD Vintage bars for sure. I was thinking about NYChoppers copper apes like C. Numb has on his bike, but I figure I've got a lot of black and chrome going on, and should probably stick with that flow, which is ok with me. I got the reflectors off right away, and put on some blacked out lenses on the turn signals. I've just got a lot I want to do, and need to practice on my patience.

Hurry up and wait. It's even worse now that the bike is sitting in your garage, isn't it?

You planning on lowering that front end too? That 21" will raise you up an inch from where your at now. The Burly Brand Kit will get you back down to level.

Oh yeah! I already have it. I took your advice awhile back, and bought the Burly lowering kit. Thanks for your heads-up! I'm dying to see how the DNA Mammoths go with my Bones. I've got to set pace between my shopping for accessories, and my wallet! There's just so much I want to do to my bones.

I hear that, I burned thru cash when I first got the XB. Lots of plans for the look I wanted.

Not sure if I mentioned it but if your doing that Burly Kit yourself get extra thick zip straps and I would recommend a healthy respect for that front fork while under full compression. My Burly Kit compression tool broke at full compression.

Your new bike looks awesome. The RSD exhaust looks perfect on that bike. Definitely post some more pics when the new wheels go on. I don't know why, but I never see anyone riding an Xbones around here. It's one of my favorite models and if I was going to buy a new bike an Xbones would definitely be on my short list.

Thanks man! I unfortunately have to leave all of the wrenching to the shop as I get OCD and in a hurry and jack Sheet up! I'm serious when I say I'm a derelict when it comes to wrenching. It kills me because I know I could save a sheez load of cash if I could just do these mods on my own.
