You should of bought the stripped down heritage they offer for 06 for a few pennies more. However put your mind to it and come up with a look thats your own man, like SoCal, nice ride dude. We await your masterpiece.

Thanks SoCal glad you liked the work, its all just a hobbie, I have a full time gig for the local Health Region in I.T.. I was getting to the point where my bike was going to look like yours. I even have a FL front fender at the house but could not seem to find a good 16" front wheel so Im keeping the 21" and buying another front fender.

A hobbie! It looks professional to me! Like they say, once its stops being fun, it starts being work. Yeah man, im into the old skool look. And ive been fortunate in finding the stuff for my build. For some reason though I have black clothes, black truck and a black bike. I need to explore some cool colors. I was able to bolt on the heritage fender. Dont even know what year it came off of. Got it on ebay. Well keep on having fun with it all, and see you on the forums.

SOCal, could you post or send me some pics of when you had the Heritage fenders and FXST forks? I'm looking to do the same along with the Heritage rear fender. Thanks
