Good looking bikes. You and 24v have been a huge help to me doing mods to mine. Just thought I'd let y'all know. Thanks.
No worries cowboy, we all contribute here in our own way. Hell my first meet with 24v was when he offered to help me install my shotgun shocks, that speaks a lot about the group of folks we have here on the forum.

Haha........Achmed inspired, I keed, I keed! Ya I've got too much Willie G **** on it, I know. I've found some new stuff I like better that I will eventually replace the grips and pegs with.

Got mine installed today with some help from 24v (thanks brother). Took all of 5 mins to install (hardest part was removing my stripped chrome accessory covers - POS HD screws).
Instructions are easy:
1) Loosen 2 bolts on the bottom of the right fork - Right side as your sitting on the bike
2) Loosen and remove bolt
3) Insert new bolt and screw it into the left fork flush cap (ensure you don't cross thread)
4) Tighten bolt (this will cause the left forks flush cap to pull into axles hole)
5) Insert right flush cap (apply silicone to ensure it doesn't fall out)
6) Tighten right fork bottom bolts (2 bolts on bottom)

I've had parts sitting in the garage for nearly a year now that needed to get installed so I decided to move forward with one of my projects this past week which is a new Heartland Front Fender. I paid $330 shipped to Cali last year when I bought it (military discount and free shipping within CA which was nice. Took it to my local powder coater and paid about $70 I think to have it coated in Gloss Black.
Still need to get around to getting these installed as I've had them for almost a year. I've been hoping the tires would need replaced soon but it doesn't appear like they are gonna wear down fast enough so I might just install them.
Bag is the HD brand, love it, real rigid. There are probably better brands out there but it had the look and feel I wanted. The Belkin thing as mentioned is a HD Charger (direct connect to the battery) that I installed inside the bag to charge iphone on the road.
