Now you guys have me completely hooked on the nacelle. I didn't have any plans for the monmey coming in after the Big Bore build, but you ahve done it! I need the nacelle with the fat trim ring and will put it on when I get a chance to rewire my passing lamps and put them on.

It seems the only aftermarket manufacturer of this is Custom Chrome which I cannot get a diso**** on. Wah wah.

Poor me.

This thread has helped me decide. It all comes down to when I will have the money in pocket as it does with everything else. No regrets with anything I have done so far.

I'd say you might want to stick with the factory on this part. I've seen a couple threads around here about how bad the aftermarket ones are. Most I think said they were either poor fitting, or didn't fit.

thank you sir! Harley it is. I am starting to think I might have to go back to fishtails again so I can fit in with everyone here now.

El Supremo is right, I went with the HD kit and it fit like a glove. No rattles or any noises. Just a few modifcations and a few beers.

I'm kind of feeling the need for one as well now.Doc would this work with the high roller risers.Just about to start my ape install and was going to go with all chrome controls.I may just use the stock black controls and use the funds for this mod instead.Man it does look real,real,real nice.
