Default Introduction - No offense to the BT crowd.....

.....but just wanted to say hello to my fellow Sportster owners! I probably won't spend as much time on here as I do the other sportster forum but I am always willing to help out when I can.

Glad to meet you all and ride safe!

Oh....and here is my sporty....07' N:

Great looking Nightster! How did you do the rea fender? Looks like you moved the ECM etc...

I also love the Nacelle (sp)! Wish I could still find one but noone seems to make em for the sporty anymore.

Either way great work. Love the pics.

SA, thanks for the compliments.

As far as the rear fender....it is off a 06' sporty. I hate the 07-09 sporty "fastback" solo seat...who's sole purpose is to hide the ECM. So I bought a new take-off rear fender...had all the holes filled in and painted. Then I added the 04'-06' lepera bare bones to better show off the curb of the rear fender. Oh..and yes, I did relocate the ECM under the battery cover with a little battery tray mod I did.

Hey Cosmo, I'm usually on the other forum also. This is another great site though! I visit it quite a bit. I love your rear fender! Thinking about doing a longer one on my Forty Eight this year. What brand did you use, or what type of bike is it off of?

Sorry CP...screwed up my previous post where I explained the rear fender.....its from a 06' sporty.

Got any pics of that approach? I've seen a guide but I couldn't really see what was going on.
