I originally bought a Sportster Superlow in May.
That lasted three weeks - fun, but too small.

Traded that in for a Switchback.
That thing was in the shop more than my garage, including most of the last month - it was time to cut it loose.

Saturday I rode home on a new Slim.
Damn... I'm keeping this one!

I love the look of the stock seat, but, if I had to get a replacement, it would have to be the Mustang Wide Tripper (link attached).

I too want to keep the bare look. I've read the Mustang seats are really nice. Any feedback/insight would be great....from anyone. Thanks all!!

I like the Wide Tripper too. that's the one I like best for an aftermarket touring seat. Looks great.

The cold and wind seems to bounce right off my knees and under my helmet(yep, I'm onea those) Bought a Nolan modular. Seems to help with the wind but the lowers sound like a good idea. Thanks.

Hey Guys, I'm seeing a lot of people changing the handle bars. My question is Where did you guys end up ordering the cables,brake lines, wire extender.

I'm looking for something similiar to the Street Slammers, but I have no clue where to start.
I been using the HD website to look up parts numbers but I'm a little confuses, Here the links
