Beautiful job on your bike. Do you have an estimated total investment in all this?

Are those Kuryakyn Iso Grips? I'm considering them for my bike (the premium ones with the built-in throttle paddle). I hear they cut down on hand vibration. Are they better than anything in the HD catalog?

Very nice looking bike, but some "extreme chrome addicts" never stop.

For example, it's not reallymy cup of tea, but check out the below chromed Softail Deuce. [8D]

Nice bike, you should warn people to wear eye protection when viewing.

Nice!

What front wheel is that?
Nice bike. The front wheel comes right out of the Harley accessory catalog. I've got the same wheel. That lets me run tubeless both front and rear which I prefer over tubed.

Wow OFG.... I would hate to clean and polish that jewel... but she sure is a beaut! Is that bike owned in your neck of the woods? Definitely a show stopper!
