These pictures are the best imo the anchor kinda takes away from the bike but it looks awesome up against the side of the boat

what did you do to get the dash plastic to look like brass awesome job all over the brass springs look realy unique too

Thank you.

The dash is actually made of pot metal. It only FEELS like plastic. I just stripped off the black paint and had it copper plated.

Two beautiful machines there, and both of them are Hogs! (The A-10 is a favorite of mine.)

I know. I sanded the chrome off the kick stand, but then riding season started, so I put it on the back burner. I'm not sure whether to go black or copper with it.

Yeah, that is a brass HD fire extinguisher. I got it on eBay for around 60 bucks. Pretty cool, huh?

Default 2" tank lift anyone?
2'' TANK LIFT?

Anyone have a 2" tank lift on a Xbones? If so can you please post a couple of pics, and make sure one is showing the front ruber so I can see what it looks like after a lift.
This is my only concern about this project. Loved the 2'' on last bike but tank was different. (Dyna)

Oh, GREAT JOB SGTSPORSTER!!!!!!! Nice Bones................
Lot of anazing bikes on this thread.

Thanks,
Mike
