Welcome! Ya got the best bike and the best year! Now,



Planning on blacking out my wheels and going WW myself this winter. If ya beat me to it, I'd like some pics of that too! Head over to the night train pic thread and say hey. Bunch of yahoos over there, make sure if you post pics that the reflectors have been removed!

There's are a bunch of guy running the wrap fender in the pic thread, Story808 is the first that comes to mind, I think Midgard might be running one too.

Welcome and congrats on aquiring one of the finest Harley Davidsons made (or at least the coolest )

Like jreichart said, after you peel the reflectors off come say hi in the Night Train Picture Thread -- and be prepared to spend alot more than you anticipated lol

ps; my wrapped fender is from Kustomwerks
