I pulled the trigger tonight on the 2007 Softail Custom. The bike has 4600 miles on it and I have been going back and forth with the dealer for a week. I finally bought it for $10835 and out the door it was an even $12000. I feel like I got a great deal, the bike looks new! Thanks to everyone that commented on my thread last week helping me with this decision.
Here it is... more pics to come!

Congrats!! I love my 07 fxstc! As for lowering it I ride two up about 40% of the time, so that isn't an option for me but i have seen them lowered and they look pretty good. I was getting about 3500 tops on my stock tire. I just replaced it with a pirelli night dragon. So far I like how it sticks to the road and they say it last long then the stock dunlop.

Thanks!
WOW, yours is sharp too!
I love that sissy bar, where did you get it and I assume it isn't a quick disconnect, right?

ghoticov - that's the stock sissy. It looks wicked without the stock seat attached haha! Mine is the stock sissy also with a solo seat. It bolts to the fender strut.
As for your front sigs, you just need $40-$50 relocation brackets that mount to your fork tubes or lower triple pinch bolt (depending if HD brackets or not). Where your wires are stock and run outside it is a sinch to do. Just make sure you re-route your wires out of the way of binding or getting pinched.
Congrats again on your "pulling the trigger"
