Looking good man! I think drag bars would be pretty slick on that scoot, but to my understanding they won't work because the speedo location. I haven't seen the bike in person yet, is that the case? Just find it hard to believe HD would design a bike that limits mods. Isn't that where they make a ****-ton of their $$?

the more I see it, the more I like it. Those bars still suck, along with the speedo location, keep us posted on your progress.

I didn't really like these at first, but yours looks great. I think with a few mods these are gonna turn into some awesome looking bikes.

You made a great choice!

Yesterday was demo-ride day at my local dealership, of which I always take advantage of. Rode six of the new models from the 1200 Sportster Lo, V-Rod, to Ultra Classic Limited. The Blackline was the most enjoyable ride. It simply feels right - the sitting position, placement of controls, ride characteristics, power and most importantly, braking. So much authority in braking with ABS.
Good luck and enjoy...
