I love these dand springers. Im looking for ideas for my crossbones. I just ordered a garage leathers swing arm bag. I was really wanting the duals with fishtails but I dont know if the left side pipe will fit without touching my bag.
Thanks. Don't now if it is really loud for long trips, even short trips I mounted this week the exhaust and next wednesday my tuner will be installed, so I can't wait to drive it. Not sure if I can use the passenger pegs, I don't have them, I will check it for you. I let you know also about the exhaust.

Garage Leathers makes a damn fine bag. You'll love it. It takes the full left side of the swingarm, dual exhaust won't fit with the bag there.

Glad you could make it. I love your bike! Do you ride it much? She looks so pretty and new.

That seat looks really cozy.

Just saw the thread lol. I commented in there. Telling you how bad it looked or something. I think that was my response lol. Oh I'm bad...

I really like it. I'm afraid to ask what all that cost, it couldn't have been cheap. Mine looks pretty stock still, but shockingly that's how I wanted her.

The way yours is shaping up, she'll be ready for shows!

I've got around $2000 in upgrades in it, but $740 of it was in the 18" wheel and tire, the Avon Gangster rear tire, and the rotors.

That's not all that bad then really! I was doing the math the other night on the ride home and I have a touch over $3000 in my bike since I bought it. A lot of money for a little to show.

How many miles on it? It's been around but she looks new.
