WOW! Bargain! They look totally cool. Looks like I'll be going down that rout too then. Thanks for the info.

All the best.

Nice build. I do find that storage to be only the only set back to the rocker. I love my bike though. You said you have HHI wide glide trees but then you said also you got your front end set up from Rich. Are the wide glide trees he is selling simply HHI brand? I am wanting to go wide glide with a 23 on my bike.

I don't remember what brand he advertises, but the ones he sent me are HHI. I gotta say they are VERY nice! The Wide Glide is 1.5" wider than the stock mid glide. It looks better and is the only way to mount a fender with a bigger wheel.

The storage was the big issue for me too. I ride quite a bit. 25k on a 09. Not huge numbers, but a fair amount on a bike made for bar hopping. Lol. I got tired of asking my buddies to haul my clothes n stuff for me. I rode to Myrtle Beach in '12 from Indiana, had to UPS my stuff there and back.

This was how I used to roll. The cost of the new trees stopped me from strapping the bag to my bars.
