They have just the good 'ol C that is not built to order. They are the old narrow front end C's with the mid glide front end installed. That's what I have.

Too each his owe for sure. IMHO the mid glide front end was a major improvement and the 48 fork brace is one of my favorite things on my bike (2012 custom w/ 48 front end)

but as too the op they need to add a lil more black accents on it def!

Funny, I like the front end. And the mags remind me of the hot wheels car mags I had as a kid.............I like it. Also funny.........the 72 is the only sporty that makes me yawn as much as baggers do

Yikes. I agree with you about those mags. I'm not a fan of chrome anyway but they just look so odd there.

It may not be true. But it looks possible that there filling the N & 48 slots with that. If they do it'll make 48 riders that are wanting to sell think twice. 48 forever here though. Love mine.
