Nice lQQking scoot.
Where can I get some front pegs like yours? The ones in front of your boards. I haven't seen any like that. The only other ones I've seen are the whiskers. And I was told they won't work on ABS bikes. Also your mirrors would look killer if you flipped them. JMO
Thx for the info

It's been getting warmer so I've started checking my oil temps with my HD digital dip stick. Today it was up to almost 250 and that was with mostly highway riding followed by a few miles of relatively flowing stop and go. What temps do you guys with gauges usually see? Also if anybody has any recommendations on oil coolers I'd like to hear them.

Thank ya gentlemen... after a lot of work, and a lot of $$ she's finally getting close to where I want her to be.

LoFatBoy, I wish I could answer that question. Those pegs were an Ebay score that I found... and I don't have a part # or anything for them. They're the diamond black collection pegs with what I believe to be HD floorboard mounted brackets. It took some drilling on the floorboard pans to get everything to mount up correctly, but I'm really happy with how they turned out... lets me stretch out a little on the longer hauls, plus I've never seen anything like them on another Lo out there.

As for the mirrors... I've definitely given some thought to flipping them and seeing how that looks. I may give that a shot on the next rainy day and see how I like it.

Good luck bro. I think I'm gonna hit some moonshine the got for me

Yeah the're the Ness mirrors. I'll check out your thread and maybe that'll help make my decision easier Truth be told, I just finished the Ape install with the new mirrors this week, so I haven't had a chance to put in too many miles yet to see how I like them up top. I think it's about Jack Daniels time myself

That's entirely possible. In that case I would guess that they're the Mark III... they came with a mounting plate to bolt to the bottom of the boards. But the plate was set up for the longer/straighter style boards (not the half-moon boards on the Lo)... soooo I fab'ed up some plates to work, and drilled the pans to match. It worked out well, however beware... I don't know what kind of steel those things are made of, but it was some of the toughest $hit to drill that I've ever seen! I don't know if they came black, or if the previous guy had them PC'd... they showed up black and looked brand new.
