New to these kind of bikes so be gentle. Just like to show you some pictures of my Rocker FXCW when i brought it in March 2010 and to where it is now. Wished i,d got into these bikes years ago. Everything on the bike with the exception of the wheels has either been repainted or chromed. Quick question, i have a tank lift to put on but this makes the tank very unstable, did any of you guys have to cut it down to say 1.5 inches?

Hi guys,
Thanks for all the great comments on the bike. The rear fender was cut by a local customizing shop. He,d never done one before and when he saw how good it came out said he had,nt charged me enough . As regards the paint and chroming. All the grey powder coated parts were done locally(some pretty good craftsmen in the West Midlands,England) except for the wheels which were brought from harley mirror chromed and they really are the dog,s for the money.
