Good lookin' bike locknload, and I agree the smaller blinkers would make a drastic change in appearance. She's a looker though, definately a sweet one. Nice color on her too!

Really nice bike, but your right the turn signals are a little big considering the rest of the bike's look.

Kuyakyn makes some nice small ones that might suit your taste.

Their "Silver Bullets" are also nice

Have fun looking.

Here is a pic of mine before I changed the grips and added a windshield. I'll update later.

OK here it is with new grips, chrome pods, and windshield. Also I added smoked turn signal lenses.

Love the color. All I ever see are the solid black ones - like mine. Kind of wish I had held out for 2-tone, but mine was on the floor at MSRP, and every other Harley I've ever had was black, so bought another one. Chrome goes good with them all though. Nice mods so far.

It really doesn't cost much to send yout tins back to Harley Spectrum paint, and have ANY color or tank decal applied by HD.
It's a perfect winter project, and it seperates your bike form every other "look-a-like".

Nice color, and welcome to the "Custom" club. I have had mine for almost two months now and love the hell out of it, I'm sure you will too.
I think that HD may want to think about upping the production numbers for it as it seems to be a VERY popular choice for 07.

Thanks Citoriplus. When I first saw the two tone color I fell in love with it. I will post more pics when I get my Retro King and Queen seat next week and Diamondback Cables.

I fell in love with the picture of the two tone (red/black) one in the catalog. But when I saw the black one on the dealers floor I HAD TO HAVE IT, NOW!!!!
The up side is that I want to do some custom paint and the factory black is a better fit for that than any of the two tones. Besides if you plan on repainting something, why spend extra for two tone paint that's going to get sanded or media blasted off later.
I hope you enjoy yours as much as I do mine, its a really nice bike.
