Default 23" Fat Spoke Softail Slim

Here is my 2013 Softtail Slim. I know its not everyones cup of tea, and I killed the nostalgic look of the bike. It was the blank canvas that I want to work with though. I wanted the low and lean look. The bike was lowered 1 3/4" in the front and is sporting a Shotgun on the rear. I/ve only had the bike a few months and its still a work in progress, but here she is!

I like the look. No one wants their ride to look like everyone elses.

Also I wanted to add that the nostalgic look on your scoot is still in tact .
Are those mirror stems with the LED turn signals and how do you like that headlight ?
