Congrats on the new ride. I bought a 2010 CVO Softail a month ago and have already added a new sissy bar (easier for my wife to ride with MS), luggage rack and V&H Bigshots. Bought a different seat for long rides. Expect you have more to do on yours as well.

Yeah I'm going to take those reflectors off soon.....everything installed including the laydown plate are harley parts. It's funny about the toolbox, at first when it was installed I wasn't crazy about it. The peg extention was installed and it looked like crap!I read on here that guys were not installing the extention and just turning the peg sidways. After I tried it, it made a 100% difference in the look with no passenger complaints at all. looks real old school to me plus its great for packing little stuff including believe it or not tools.......out off all of the minor mods I did the toolbox gets the most attention, compliments and questions from people...go figure....
