I got a round one from J+P Cycles. Install was pretty straight forward.

Snagged mine from Jireh Cycle. Coil mount will need modification. Pretty easy though.

wow both your bikes look great and its kinda odd that you both have the two kind of bars i am getting ready to order. could you post more pics of your scooters? i would like to see how the bars look from the front.

Thanks for the answers on the oil bag. it looks like it cleans things up a bit and really brings a custom look to the bike.

Thanks for the pics . I went and ordered the Roland Sands rear fender kit,seat & the 16" bars today with 1.5 " risers . The good news is that the fender kit was in stock. the bad news is the bars are Fn a month out.... seems lots of people want these bars . i will post pictures once the parts start rolling in. i have not ordered the oil bag yet.

I have a chrome oil tank and a black oil tank. Haven't really decided which one I was liking better so I was planning on buying another one and custom painting it. But all that went out the window with these tanks. I never though about an aftermarket one but these pictures sure added fuel to the fire.

I ran into a snag today. The Seat that i picked out from RS will not fit my bike since its fuel injected.... nor sure why. i went with a HD spring seat & pan kit. Most of this should be in by Friday ( Fingers crossed )
