Point_4 those bars look sweet, the 2-5-0 was pretty straight forward to install. You need some special tools but other than that anyone can do it.
ednigma nice looking crossbones you had there too.

OP, beautiful bike, enjoy the new ride! I was at the dealer about 2 weeks ago and saw many bikes but, the Blackline just seemed to jump out at me.

Off topic: How reliable was your XLCH?

I bought a 1976 Bicentennial XLCH 1000 new through military sales for about $2,500 In the 70's AMF was referred to as American Mother F'r. Some today think say AMF saved HD, but it's a fact HD was doing ok and only needed AMF to expand, and in return AMF ddidn't care about quality. My 76' sport had 3 bent pushrods and a clutch the 2nd week, all of which the dealer noted were installed or adjusted incorrectly at the factory. Then 3 generators later the hell continued. I loved the bike but it was a POS. Still my 1st new Harley for $2,543.00

Congrats on your Blackline! Loving mine. I scarificed my Fatboy Lo for it. I put Stage 1, Big Radius pipes & a Cobra F1200 tuner on it, and a custom sissy bar, but probably one of the few that likes it the way it is. I was always hoping there's be a Harley I'd just like the way I got it and not screw with it, and this is it. I couldn't think of anything else I wanted to change so put true duals on my Street Glide. Its a simple bike that feels like a motorcycle.
