Default "Dropping a Deuce"
recently picked up a 2001 Deuce... had it a few weeks and hated the stock look... Slammed the rear, 17"x5" rear laced wheel with a SE 170, p-coated the front stocker... l.e.d. lighting and turn signals, adjure front headlight, rhinehart pipes, different bar, risers, and a bit more to come... progressive drop in kit awaiting install....

(pardon the crappy phone pics)
