righteous sled ... good pics ... what's not to like ...?

couple of q's ... is your current fender the one in your sig or the photos ...? same q for pipes ... (I like the V&H BR 2-2s better than the cross-backs) ...

... in the last photo the A/C almost looks like it's photo shopped ... can't really see what it looks like ... I do like the round A/C in your sig pic ....

I'm diggin it... Rear fender matches the theme perfectly. I like that the chrome pipes help "lighten " things up-just enuff. Are the turn signals HD or aftermarket ? I'm looking for black for my bike.

Signature pic is old. The black pipes were Hooker Troublemakers. I like the unique look of the Crossbacks plus a little bit of chrome makes for good contrast. I put a big scratch on the chopped fender (cut fatboy fender) so I swapped back to the stock ducktail for now. The AC is now a Shadetree Fab cast red brass. Also good for contrast. The color matches the brass HD logo on the tank pretty nicely, I think.

Here's a pic of the right side of the bike.

Thanks. Yes, I agree the exhaust gives just enough contrast. The turn signals are all stock. Front signals were relocated to the fork.

A nice lady would add to these photos. But sadly, I have a solo seat and there were no attractive ladies available in this shady part of town!

WOW nice bike ! I think the headlight would look really good re-located to the bottom of the springs. Why did you lose the floorboards and the taillight ?

Thanks. I like the lowered headlight too, but it would cover up the old-style HD "patented" emblem I have on the shock, which I like more. The previous owner removed the floorboards and I'm okay with it - more simple. The rear signals are also my running and brake lights, so the big brake light under the fender was no longer needed, plus I think it looks cleaner without it.
