LOL too funny. Unfortunately, I had the bagger tail powder coated in Xtreme Chrome which I did not know is the most sensitive powder coat to cleaners. I used Bike Spirits to clean my fender and it oversprayed on the brackets and ruined them.
I got a few quotes to chrome it and all were *much* more than buying a new bagger tail. So a hard lesson learned about that particular type of powder coat.
The new bagger tail is already on. Looks much better

Wow peg,i always thought you were west coast.anyways .i think you should do the diamond cut only,why spend the money on cams and bore,your bike will only run hotter,a slight tank lift and coil relocation are simple and will give more air flow,heat deflectors ,would also work and you can paint them any color,powder coated pipes are for show and won't last,there is a guy in weymouth who does ceramic coating for pipes or you could just have the heat shields coated...waiting to see it on oct. Cover of american iron

Peg you don't play around. I have followed some of your other threads and it seems once you set your mind on something you get it done. Been looking at hard bags myself. Gotta save the money up for the baggertail kit. Your bike really stands out.

Yeah I agree with you on the diamond cut only... I decided against powder coating. There is enough color on the bike and the show diamond cut should add just enough bling without going overboard (I'm on the edge of that already...)

Love the bagger tail... I had ghost/edge brackets before and they were horrible.
