This is an old one I found laying around the house. It is a River Road and does not feel like real leather, but it is big and I think i can fit everything I need in it for now. After taking the saddlebags off I have realized how much stuff I am used to carrying with me everywhere I go. I am going to get another leatherworks tool bag when I get a chance.

I think I'll get this one this time.

What do you guys think of the chrome pulley Vs. a powder coated one to match the spokes? Too much?

I think it would flow better if you can leave the outer chromed with the "spoke" part red to match. You already did the rotors, the pulley would just fit the look.
I looked at the 101 but ended up getting the LW 100. I think the 101 would look better on your bike.

Drew I just looked and the 102 might be a better fit. The Rocker's narrow 10" fits the 100 or 101, but yours is 12" I think.

Kowan is spot on! Red spoked pulley to match with chrome outter trim just like the rotar will complete the package IMO.

Looks good Drew. Your bike looks good with bags as well, IMO.

Too much red is going to hurt your look.

Drew...the bike is really coming together well. I really like what you've done; the seat is cool looking, wheels are awesome, the chromed exhaust...lots of things to like about your bike.

Yup, them pics are great! As for the pulley, chrome looks sweet. Wouldn't want too much of that red jumpin out at you.
