Default The mod bug bit the hell out of me!
I just got off of the phone with the dealer doing the work on my bike.....he offered me the chrome front end kit for my bike at their winter special price! Of course....how can I pass that up....so now I will have the Carlinis with risers and the front end chromed when I get it back at the end of the week.

the break down of mods now is....

First Round:
Stage one A/C
Vance and Hines Big Radius 2-into-2s
SERT and Dyno Tune
Mustache Engine Guard
Willie G. Front and Rear Axle Nut Covers
Chrome Frame Inserts

Second Round:
LePera Bare Bones (custom)
Mustang Fender Bib
Carlini 14" Flyin' Apes
Carlini High Roller Risers
Magnum Sterling Chromite Cables
Chrome Front End Kit
Willie G. Tear Drop Mirrors

The sick thing is that I was just gonna do Rush Slip-ons and leave it alone! Thank god for the home buyer tax credit!

Good lord, Nicky - if you keep adding mods you'll never get it back!

Might as well get a trailer. You wouldn't want to get that 'queen' dirty. Just kidding. Should look great.

It stops now! I literally cashed in a container of silver change from the past 2 years to get the chrome front end kit (kind of pathetic in a way) I have no more money for this thing except for gas!

sounds cool but what all is the dealer installing? I know plenty of people on here have been quoted obscene amounts for installing apes. Do anything you can on your own man.

I use Illinois Harley. I know the service manager there, so I know the bike is well taken care of.
