i was just thinking that the other day actually, im a huge fan of the front fenders on the springers for some reason and i was thinking how awesome it would be to have one just completey blacked out. i really want to get an old set of springer bags for my fatboy, but they are so dang expensive.

Yeah man that looks pretty good with what you got goin on.
I know a couple of guys that put a roll up front I allways wondered why, they both run solo seats and one night one of them picked up a girl at a joint we were at and when we left he took it down and put it on the fender for her to sit on.
So now I know.

Yeah I dig the front fender, its so old school in the best of ways. I would dig having an old WWII era springer but I know I wouldnt be into the ride quality and the lack of ponies...damn good looking though.

Kyle,

How does that attach to the bars? Do the straps hold it to the bars? I am heading to Daytona in March, and it is 1400 miles for me. I am not using a windscreen, and I will probably buy one of these.
