Good choices Dan! Caps blend in well and that shift rod stands out the right amount. Glad you finally got one that fit. Blue wire go with your theme!

I used SE Red wires, I wanted them to stand out like a sore thumb, but not look gaudy!

Looks great, man. I need to get those caps and the black console off the S model (or have mine powder coated).

i like the off set of the red wires, catches your eye.

i thought about doing a black console, but it would take away from the contrast of the brushed aluminum on the bike

Yeah, I do agree about the console. I go back and forth on it, but then I look at my bike and realize it looks pretty balanced with the stock one on there.

as like the contrast of the primary case and the black derby cover on it. i think we all go back and fourth on a lot of crap with our bikes. drive myself crazy sometimes

i have one other piece to put on. i have a gas cap cover that i will put on over the step cap, it's the black number 1, it has double sided tape underneath. put one on my dyna but is was a willie g skull that was chrome.

Hi Mother,

Please let me know how you like the bag when you get it, and post up some pics when you get it installed. If you decide you want to hard mount it, we can help you out with that also with our Bobber Bracket kit.

Thanks again for your business, we really appreciate it!
