A few more pics. The last three were earlier in the spring when my bike was in storage at my local Harley dealer before I added the new headlight and derby/points covers.

Yeah I like that spoiler because it makes the bike look longer to me. Also it fills the gap between the frame and the tire?

I think it'll give it a cool look! gonna go with that and one of the small fairings this winter when I have nothing better to do and it's modification time. Right now, it's time to get some riding in and I'm not screwing with anything else till it gets parked! did you paint your spoiler or was that from HD that color?

is that stock engine colors? are you going to change it? just asking, not criticizing man

I had a local guy paint the spoiler because it didn't come in denim black. He tried to match it but it is just slightly off. I had the oil tank cover, left side battery cover and rear taillights all sprayed at the same time. They used to be shiny vivid black. The rocker boxes on the nightsters are polished aluminum but I wanted to change it so I bought rocker boxes and rocker covers in a black textured finish. I wish the bike came like the iron which was all black but oh well I can live with it!
