Rinehart Crossback exhaust
Derby Sucker Air Cleaner
Milwaukee Twins oil tank & custom built oil lines (not a simple undertaking)

Detroit Brothers linkage
Modified Retro stop light/license plate bracket
RevTech Speedstar wheels, rotars & pulley

Kentor1701, what kit did you use for the plate and tail lights - been wanting to do something like that on mine. As far as the pipes go, I went with v&h duals- love the look and sound - if I knew how to post a pic I would. Also have the sissy bar that someone asked about.

The kits are from Harley. I needed to move the license plate and tail lights to the rear so I can put bags on it. These are the kits that Harley has to do this for the Slim. I had Harley do it as part of the deal to buy the bike.
There are 2 kits one for the License plate and one for the taillights. They are $100.00 or more each.
License Plate Relocation Kit P/N 67900127
Turn Signal Relocation Kit P/N 67800065
It looks even better with the actual License plate on it instead of the Temp Tag.

I had the dealer swap the front end parts before I took the bike home. I think it should have come this way from the factory
