Driver (58Driver) what Fenders are those or where did you get them? Did they bolt on or what mods were needed? Appreciate any Info. Thanks Much

Ok.. after I stopped drooling at the Pictures only, I read (What a concept). So you stated where you got the fenders but you did note some additional work. What additional work was performed? Looks very good. I like the stretched / longer overall length look.

Lud-A-Tick,
What Bags are those or where did you get them. I have the same pipes and I'm wondering if who ever manufactures them, if they may have the same connection/ attachment setup but with a stretched and deeper (Lower) bag with cut out around pipes ?

Would be nice to find something stretched with enclosed ends at the back of then fender.

Thanks Much
Mac

I've had mine since new in 2002. If I were to list everything done folks would lose interest in such a long list. But here are a few things that stand out to me.
Relocate the front signal lights down to the forks.
I hated the solid wheels in a cross wind. They're gone.
Added a Mustang seat with backrest for me.
New bars with big pullback to ease shoulder fatigue.
All signal lights replaced with LED.
Braided brake & clutch cables.
All chrome upper and lower forks.
Old school style grips.
HD Mustache Bar.
Roland Sands Designs air breather.
Tailgunner exhaust.
Heads reworked/gear drive cams.
Just returned from custom color shift paint.
