Lookin' good. I really need to break down and get one. People must love them because you never see them for sale used on Ebay.

I think you are right, have been looking for months and haven't seen one used. I need to order one soon.

Bike looks killer, can't imagine why everyone doesn't have those on their deluxes. That is the best $120 you could spend!

Never understood why the MOCO put the plate brackets so high.
One of the first Mods I did.
