Also runnin the half moons. Provides more lean angle and look good. ISO grips - feel good, not the best looking though imo. Replaced flamed shifter, brake., passenger pegs that were already on the bike with a complete Chrome and Rubber set found used.
Not on your list, but traded the nostalgic crash bar for a mustache bar with Santos. Fits the bike better imo.
The thing I did not like about the half moons is that there was only 1 "custom" insert sold for them. They do provide more clearance though. I understand teh budget issue. I'm lukcy I don't ahve kids or I probably wouldn't even have a bike.
those boards you chose are pretty sweet looking.. i hadn't noticed them before. wouldn't fit the flow of my bike but they're definitely nice. i like the kuryakyn ISO boards (especially when they come out in black in august/september) because they'll match my black grips, but $300 for some boards is a bit pricey.
I think I have about 4 or 5 different sets. I can never decide which I like more. Skull, nostalgia, black, contrast, oem, half moon. I guess I'm just afraid of commitment.

When my first born came a long I had to sell my springer. Went without a bike for roughly 16 years and then finally said to heck with it. Got tired of seeing everyone else riding and having a good time. Showed up home with a new bike in '07.... coldest two weeks in my house was the two weeks to follow.
check the RSD Tracker grips, they have black & Chrome, I ordered Black fully for my new bars (if Canada Post ends the strike ).
As for boards, I dig the old school banana from cyclesmith, you may look at battestini as well.
