Mimo.
Not only am I going to move them, I'm going to shrink them too.

I eventually am just going to call Duane Ballard and ask him to do it. He made the seat, so he is probably the only one who can match it. I dont know anything about that leather working stuff.

Your bikes is insane. I really want to start adding brass to my bike, grips, pegs, risers, etc, but I don't know. If you can get the solo bag to match the seat, that will take it to yet another level. You bones is already head and shoulders above 99% out there.

Thanks! There are some other really great ones on this site. What I like about it is that we all went different directions with the cross bones, yet they all turned out pretty cool. It is a very versatile bike. Some people made it look like an old knuck, others went for a modern bobber look, while others went industrial, one guy went military, etc, etc, etc, and they all came out looking great.

I am eventually going to do the matching bag thing. I might have to send the seat out to CA for DB to properly match it. If that's the case, it will probably wait until next winter.

Thank you!
The signals are going to be relocated lower down. They are also going to be replaced by much smaller lights.

Numb first of all the bike is getting better and better. Love the way the springs and sh*t turned out.

I noticed that the fuel gauge is gone. What are planning on putting in that hole???

As for the swing arm bag. If you are gonna get rid of it let me me know as I would love to take it off your hands.

The fuel gauge is actually there. It is the flush mount ones that Harley sells. You have first dibs if I sell the bag.

They are from DMC Choppers. They make great risers. Good, heavy, solid pieces. And they work with aluminum, brass, and they are one of the few shops out there with a "bronze" option. Bronze is such an interesting metal, I couldn't resist. Here is a link: DMC CHOPPER!!!
