Pics comming soon.... i just dont wanna put another stock 2011 up :P
I've got the 5" leather works bag and the same edge cut pegs, no problem with the Mrs. on the back.

Edit: After looking at your picture, I went and looked at mine and it seems I have my bag positioned back a bit further almost to rear axle. Might make a bit more room, looks right to me.

I got stock Lo exhaust with black se slip-ons and cycle shack baffles for sale. The cycle shack sound. Loud but not loud enough for me.

Either way, I am not gonna keep this. It just isn't right. Think I am going to get the freight train nacelle if they ever do it in black, and if it is made to fit the black LED headlight. The way I read the catalog, the black LED won't fit that nacelle today.
maybe because i powdercoated mine it fits tighter, i dont recall but i thought mine didn't have those gaps (on the ring) which is why i had to kind of 'snap' mine into place..i know 2 of those rubber boots ripped off when i removed the stock trim ring though.. but yeah, you can always get the chrome nacelle and PC it black, i thought about doing it, but i like the look of the visored ring better for my bike. glad to see you're making some progress.

Boom!

It has been done!

After 7 hours at the dealership yesterday I got my brand spankin' new FLSTFB!!!!!

$15,872.76 out the mother effin door!

Didn't have one in Denim so I got one in Gloss.

Loaded up on accessories right there so the wife wouldn’t get pissed that I just dropped 16k and then spent another 2k this weekend.

So with 2K worth of crap I was at exactly $17,854.98 out the door!!!!!

Went ahead and got RSD 12" apes with 3" risers
V&H Short Shots
V&H V02 Naked
Screamin eagle fuel management pak (cant remember technical name for it)
cables for downloading into the ECM
All the fluids and gaskets I need
Cables for my bars

They also gave me the 1st service free and gave me all the points for my accessories.

RQUIRCH – Can you hook a brother up with a part # for that swing arm bag?

Aaron (Drwalkinboner) – How about that license plate relocate kit?

Yep…. I know where I will be this weekend…. In my god damn garage!

Only part that sucks is my cable kit for the apes is back ordered for 3-4 weeks….

Guy at the parts counter was like : Hey at least you get your apes today. Seriously??? I can’t do **** with them for almost a month!!!!!

I hope I didn’t make a mistake getting the 12” apes instead of the 16”…..

Awesome dooder! Did you get all that stuff rolled into the loan? That's the benefit of lending from HD but they're interest is like 11%. I refinanced it like a month later for 5%.

Anyways, google and call up Road6Customs for the license plate bracket. I got the horizontal one laying around if you want it for $15 shipped. They're like $27 shipped and I only put it on and rode it once but like the vertical better.

Pretty sure RQuirch has the same leatherworks bag I got which is 312XL. I was at HD last night and saw their bag with is $2 more and you can probably fit 2 of them inside the 312XL and they're basically the same thing. I just got mine 2 weeks ago from Dr. Vtwin for $177 shipped. Last night I put a 6 pack of Yuengling and a 12" subway in there and rode home...LIKE A BOSS!

buddy... I bought the same lay down plate holder from hogrida but haven't installed it yet... did you put it directly against the fender or did you use washers or something to lift it up a little so it's not metal to paint?? that's the only reason I haven't installed it yet.. plus, seems like if you just mount it directly to the fender, water, dirt, etc would get between it and the fender..
