Rocker mods and changes
Just finished up gettiing the leatherworks swingarm bag bought it from the forums (drew) and completed all of my maintenance issues that were bothering me from last riding season. So some of the fixes are not that noticable but here they are:
Relocated P-pegs to stock position (w/chrome peg mounts)and grinded seat bracket down, countersink screws and new coat of flat metallic grey color.
Switched from flame pegs to mini floorboards along
Added leather works swingarm bag and EGA's to the license plate holder
Put stock horn back on (napa horn filled up with water and is inop). You wont noticed but put on new rotor (old one got warped from fire..long story) Oh and new clutch cable cause old one got destroyed from a rock or something hitting it.
Next, I plan on selling the RSD Vintage Apes and 3" risers (PM if interested)and going with Carlini Slickbacks - so if anyone has slickbacks on their rocker; pipe up so I can ask a bunch of questions.

WOW, your seat is awesome.
Would you let us know how/where you got it.
I should have enough money for the seat mod and would like to do it.

Thanks for the kudos, nothing wrong with the position of the bars on the Rocker - sounds weird but I figure the slickbacks would better accomodate handlebar speakers so, I have the bug and want to change them out (if anyone is interested I will give a good deal...).
The chrome oil bag was the result of a paint defect / crack that the MoCo replaced. The chrome one came from a 2007 CVO springer which is identical to the Rockers. I do not suggest buying one from HD cause they run about 750. for a total of 1K if your not doing the labor...again....I paid $0 for it.
Seat mod was fabricated by a local fabricator here in Fredericksburg, so if you want to contact him IM me and I will give you his phone number. The seat is a xbones bolt on seat representing the 1925 HD seat (tractor style). I had to do alot of grinding to get it smooth.
Joewhat- I dig that front fender and thinking that I might do something similar but doing handlebars first.
