Default Heritage Modifications *PICS*

Just got my bike back...got in a wreck about a month and a half ago. I had to get some stuff replaced due to damage, but was able to add a couple items as well.

16" Wild 1 Chubby's (replaced)
Samson True Duals (replaced with 33" longtails)
Engine guards (replaced)
Chrome front end (NEW!!!!) - one of my favorite mods
Nostalgic grips (NEW)
Smoked Lenses (NEW)
Chrome axle covers (NEW)

Next up: LED headlight, floorboard extensions, yellow laminex covers for aux lights, wide white walls. Hopefully that will last me for a long time...Hope the cell phone pics show up.

Looks good. The chrome front end makes a huge difference.

Now get on those white walls

Very nice. And something good came out of something not good. Your 16's are pushed forward a bit - now tall are you?

I'm 6' even...the bars are about 3 inches above my shoulder when they are pushed forward. On longer rides, I'll push them back a couple inches for more comfort.

Thanks for the compliments fellas. I'm really happy with the way it turned out.

Your misfortune turned into a positive, what a good time to make mods on your ride. Looks good, the way a heritage should look with true duals and more chrome..
