Not much of anything for me. Got some chrome bits for Christmas but that requires 5 min. install.
My project for the winter is SAVING MONEY. PC3 and a Dyno, new front tire and brakes all around.

I finally got out on the bike with the wife on hers this afternoon for the first time in many months. What a rush to see her rolling along side of me. WooHoo! We need more mods! I would really like to do my tins flat black and get some red and white pinstriping, but that is reserved for if I ever have the money and ability to have the bike down long enough to get the tins painted.

This site has ruined me financially. I remember when I first found this site I thought everyone was crazy to be buying new wheels, building their motors and doing all the other stuff we do here, but here I am 5 years later jsut like everyone else. The hook is in my mouth and I can't get it out!

Chrome fork kit, boom! windshield mounted stereo, PCV, SaggyBags, Cruise IV highway bars. That blows the 2011 HD improvement budget... might have to dip into 2012's budget soon...

The only good thing about winter is new mods for the bike, this winter switched over to Cobra true dual headers to go along with the Cobra slip ons I had, put on lower fairings with the hogtunes speaker kit and new 40.4 amp, switched over from the SE heavy breather I had to the Kuryaykn Velociraptor breather to accomadate the lower fairings, switched all turn, brake lights to led's, looking into a led headlight and a few other little bling items. Each winter I say I'm done but you are never done...haha
