I like the mods.....I'm leaning towards a 18" rear and new 21" front. Got to update my pics though. I've done more work since my sig pic....Added a chrome front end kit, and chrome engine kit.

I've never been a fan of T-bars but those fat ones look cool.
I'm 6'4" so I need the rise, but I don't like the way apes position my hands. The 1.25's I had on it were too tall, they were 10" rise;I couldn't get my arms stretched out. These are 7" rise and 31 1/2 wide and seem to be just what I needed.
Insurance renewal time has forced me to get a couple of snaps of the bike, so I thought I might as well post.
I have been slowly tinkering as and when I can. Over the last year I have lowered the rear, converted to a 16" front wheel with Fatboy fender (rattle can paint job), fitted chrome rocker box covers and lifter covers, new mirrors and axle nut covers. I have a spoked wheel to go on the rear when the rubber needs changing (soon), a tank lift kit to fit when I have sorted out the clearance issues by fitting new bars, which will force me to go down the route of chrome sliders, and hopefully (if the lead I am following doesn't prove to be a dead end), blacking out the fork tubes. Once all that is done it will be on to doing something about the football air cleaner, custom fabricated fenders, custom paint job, and lots of details. Will it never end? I certainly hope not!
