I finally got my powder-coated wheels back and the flamed tins...

Anyway, I hope you like her.

Bluzmn,

YourSpringer looks great!

Awesome tastefully executed paint/powdercoat job. I love those blue outlines...really jumps out.

I'm w/ bgismo too...powder coatingmy wheels are on my to-do-list for when Iget homefrom Iraq.

I got two questions for you about other stuff on your ride:

What kind of tire are you running in those pics? Are they Avons, and if so how do they ride?

Second, and lastly, I have been looking all over gods creation for a mounting bracket for my turn signals to mount under the passing lamps. Is that a kit...and if so, who makes it, or would you happen to have a part number. I have tried several, and none work. Thanks a lot

Again, thats one kick a$$ ride...
Thanks for the compliments. The paint was done by Jim at Beyond the Paint here in Augusta. The flames were all laid out by hand and the blue pinstriping was also done by hand.

The tires are Metzlers, actually, in wide whitewall. I am partial to Metzlers.

I had somebody else ask me about the turn signal mounts and that is the Harley kit for relocating them, but I can't seem to find the part number now. The kit is not listed as being for this application, but the guts of the kit provided hardware that enabled me to do it. Ask your local parts guy and maybe he can steer you in the right direction.

Thanks again.

Here's a few updated snaps of mine. I thought Harley copied me with the Fatbob, then they came up with the Cross Bones. I will take mine over theirs.

Good shot of Oak Creek Wind project, was it 90th Willow Springs Rd? I used to live about 11 miles north of Lancaster.

Hey y'all,

I am not on here much anymore, but thought I should stop in and show you the progress on my 2007 FLSTSC. I finally got my powder-coated wheels back and the flamed tins (took longer than expected as always) and threw it all together this weekend. After a shakedown ride, I polished it up for pictures. I put some in a photo gallery, but here is a link for a photobucket page as well, if you are interested.

Anyway, I hope you like her.

I almost got me a sweet 98 springer, got sold out from under me by a couple of hours. I got my 98 King and just fell in love with the Kings. Well I always loved the Kings, but Springers were my first choice at first. Still, in 5 years I plan to get me a slightly used Springer and have 2 bikes that kick ***. Nothing wrong with that.
