Mine started life as a 2008 Crossbones and has ended up looking like something a little more traditional. Still gotta get my wide beach bars mounted as well as a few other odds and ends but she is coming along I think...
I'm lovin' those tank emblems; the red pops nice without going overboard. Well done.
I also posted this in the Crossbones section, but I thought I'd copy it in here too! ;-)
Recently traded in my '08 sporty. Loved it, but my wife loves to ride with, and wanted to be more comfortable, so this is where we ended up!
The bike came with a quick detachable windshield, passenger pillion, sissy bar, and saddlebags. So far, I've changed the seat (swapped to 2" seat springs), Flanders Bad Boy style handlebars (changed the riser bushings to Gooden Tite while I was swapping handlebars), & Vance & Hines Slip-ons. At some point, I'd like to swap the front wheel for a 21" wheel, & lower it. In any case, I couldn't be happier with the ride!
