Can't wait to put some real miles on my Lo

This evening, the local dealer had a sale going on so I purchased another bag similar to the one on the rack. Same brand, but a different model, so the bags will attach to each other.

I hadn't planned on it but I went down to pick up the new spun aluminum speedo/tach combo with 600 colors and some red spark plug wires. After another part arrives and some powder coating gets done, the speedo/tach will go in.

Couple new additions

There's more, but here's the first two pics the dealer sent me of the new stuff they put on for me while it's in storage.

LED Headlight (I'll have to powdercoat the trim ring when I get back)

Primary/Derby (You can also see the makings of the HD Swingarm Bag)

I'm not sure if I like this or not yet. I guess I'll have to see it in person or get a pic of the whole side of the bike before I'm sure about it.

They did a few other things, cam cover and what not, they just haven't sent me the pics on it yet. I'll upload them when they come.

I have to agree, I like the satin finish on some of the parts. I think it starts to get overbearing when everything is black.

Agreed. I'm done blacking things out, the primary cover was the last. There was just something weird about the satin primary cover with a black derby.

I wasn't too much into that either that's why I went with a wrinkle black primary cover which also matched the engine. Most of the time if I add more black, I add a touch of chrome. I've been really debating satin or denim black on the speedo/tach housing, but I figured denim black won't be too bad since I'll keep the vivid black finish on the top portion retaing some contrast.
