(1) Big City Thunder QQ Baffle for my V&H Big Radius 2-1.
(2) Avon Cobra 250/40-18 & 120/70-21
(3) Todd's Cycle Gloss Black Strip Handlebars with a 12" rise w/Magnum cable kit.
(4) HD Airflow Handgrips
(5) Bar End Mirrors


Yet to purchase are the 30T & 70T pulleys.
New pegs.
Also need to powdercoat rIsers, speedo housing, fender rails, taillights, and belt guard.


Did you get your baffles done?? If so how do they sound. I am considering this but don't know anyone who did it. Thanks

Anybody know offhand the outside diameter of the stock grips? They're way too slim for me, looking at new grips now, wanting something larger but I don't really have a baseline measurement.

While on the subject of replacement grips, pay attention to the amount of any METAL on the actual grip area. In places like Austin, Texas, where The Sun is BRIGHT and daytime summer highs hit 108 occasionally, any metalm on the grips is not only uncomfortable, it can actually burn your hands if you don't wear gloves.
