I've got a gal that's gonna make me a matching tank and fender bib set as soon as I get the design down right. It's only been about 7 months I've been working on it, not too long eh?

Today I installed a Kuryakyn extended brake pedal, set my preload and FINALLY pulled my reflectors off.

The Progressive tool works great setting the preload while on the sidestand.

Does anybody have the Harley extended brake pedal to compare how it sits to the Kury one? I'm just wondering if it sits lower still and a little further forward. I was going to order the HD one but I got the Kury for half price so I figured it was worth a try.



I also swapped the speedo out the other day. I think I'm done until after Christmas. We'll see what items on my list my wife decides to pick up for me.

the fender bib should be here saturday. when i get home i will take a pic to show what the one did to the dyna. to solve that issue i found some small felt pads with a sticky side, i'll cut them and place them on the outer edges of the bib before securing it to the bike. does anyone leave it on when putting a back seat on?
