-Ordered some DNA fatspoke wheels with diamond cut spokes, but wrong ones were sent so they were sent off to powder coaters.




-Wheels back from powder coaters



-Wheels installed along with some Arlen Ness Retro Fork Covers (Current Look)



Digging the bike, man! Can't wait to see it when you write "finished" under the title! I'm on a similar track with my '12 Deluxe... One question. What is the part number you used for the Ness slider covers? Seems to me all I am finding are part numbers that correspond to the touring bikes, unless they use the same ones??

Thanks!

Bike is looking good. I wish I had gone with the fat cat exhaust. You see more of the real old bikes with the 2 into 1 over duals. I am going to do a cam also, I will see what you do. My dealer is suggesting SE254e. I may do a cam, fatcat, and tune at the same time. Then leave it alone.
