2012/13 Winter Mods
On my 2008 Heritage:
-Progressive front springs
-Sportster 68 tooth rear sprocket
-Hopefully get a Gopro camera and start playing around with that
Last year I did a power vision tuner, woods 555 cams and V & H 2 into 1 pipes

YES! your version #1 whitewalls would look AWESOME on your scoot!
Just them and some white nostagic grips EVERTHING else black.. love that look plus it would stand out just a bit from the other blacked out bikes IMO
Oh yeah I'm in Sharpsburg not far at all from you in Braddock Htgs, we do need to get together and ride or mod the bikes!

Man, I like that a lot! Wish I had the room, time and coin to work on a project like that.
As for winter mods, I got nothin. Maybe look into swapping out to the new Breakout wheels.

I like where the line between the color split on the fenders is. Higher than a stock two tone...the colors are great, post pics when you get them on

In addition to my post above, I have had people send my side messages saying " Oh NO, NOT ANOTHER SOCAL" style bike. My answer to that is yes, there seems to be a ton of them on here but 1, I don't care what others think. I am cool with suggestions, tips and comments but when it comes down to it, it's my bike, my money and the vision I had when I bought this bike. I am also cool with being ribbed and teased, I can take a joke as well. 2, I have seen literally thousands of bikes this summer and surrounding area, been to all the biker bars in the area, gone to many party's and pig roasts and run's and I have yet to see 1 single SoCal style bike in my area and I am less then 50 miles from Chicago so it's not like I am out in the "Bonnies" either! The ONLY thing I am having trouble with figuring out it what size Gangster's I want to put on my bike and the risers as well. I have come up with this game plan so tell me if it will work. I am just going to go ahead and get the 16's 1.5's and then play with the height of them with the risers I end up using to make it fit me best. I hate buying chit only to have it end up hanging on my garage walls collecting dust. Also jreichart, I like your bike with the wide white walls best, they really stand out on your bike, they give it better lines and more definition, IMHO that is!!!

The Softail is getting lowered 2" via Dead Creek kit, a chrome oil tank, chrome primary covers, brake pads. Possibly new cams.
XL1200 is also getting rear lowered 2" by Burly shocks, gonna get one of DK's speedo re-positioners, and raise the front of the tank a couple inches. Considering 4" over fork tubes but haven't looked into the details of that yet.
