The front fender is a stock Fatboy fender that I chopped and lowered.
I used a Dan Moto speedo. It can be seen in the pic if you look closely by the handlebar riser. I'm not very happy with the speedo. The quality sucks. The MPH is erratic and the odometer is not reading properly. I'm going to try ditching the speed sensor that came with the speedo and wiring it to the OEM sensor on top of the transmission.

Finally got the oil cooler installed. Talk about an ordeal. Heritage Cycles HD in Fort Walton Beach FL took care of me and just gave me the adapter out of the other kit. Of course when I went to put it on I didn't have a big enough allen bit to install it. Neither did autozone but a guy there found me a bolt that fit and we just put some nuts on it so I could use a socket and that worked. It was a bit of a pain to install since there was almost no space to tighten the hose clamps. I took it around the block to verify that the cooler warmed up and was getting oil. So far no leaks but I've got my fingers crossed. I'll have to wait a while for the weather to warm up to see how well it actually works. I figure it'll help at least some. I've put some pics up and it's actually less obtrusive then I thought it would be.

Well my Lo friends,
I just sold my 4 wheel pride and joy (in my sig pic) for a pretty good price and have already contacted JD for a shotgun shock system and am totally excited as all the reviews from this forum say it's by far one of the best upgrades one can do....
I'll be gatting some paint work done as well pretty soon to from 8 ball paint that HD uses here in the UK to do their custom and repair work.

Noise but no drone
I haven't had a Softail for years so I am new to the Softail forum. Hope I can get some advice. I'm just starting my FBLo and want some noise from a 2-1 pipe, but I don't want the drone at highway speeds that gives me a headache.
Any suggestions? I like the look and sound of either a Rinehart 2-1 or Pro Pipe but don't know how either is out on the road. Thanks

Thanks. I also have some red pinstriping on my camera and lens hoods for two different lenses. I guess in reallity, my camera equipment has more pinstripping than my motorcycle.
