It looks nice..I love my 06 1200C and the pics of yours are making me anxious for the Minnesota permafrost to recede. It's been a hell of a Winter and I cant wait to ride!

Nah it's just a smoked lens for the time being. I had just bought the LED tail light for my Fat Boy and 25$ for the smoked lens seemed like the way to go for the time being on the sporty.

Nice job - looks great. Especially like the single seat look and relocated number plate. I'd love to move my plate but ours are a bit big in the UK and bright yellow, might not look as cool. Definately doing the single seat though.

Looks good. I swapped over about a year and a half ago. Got rid of that dumb pull back riser. Looks good.
