Default 13' Harley 48 (mod)

Okay so I completely re-designed my Harley 48. I had another thread going but I can't find it. So here is the before and after pics. I have adjusted the exhaust and evened it out, as well as given her a bath. I haven't re-taken those pics though. I'll have to spread the pics out I think. I'm having trouble uploading. Maybe they're too big....well here is the before.

Nice pipes and paint! Bike looks good. Is that the stock tank or did you change it out. That looks like a DK headlight relocation kit for bowhunter

Changed out the tank. It's a sportster tank, widened. It holds close to 5 gal. I think haha. I never let it get that low =P.
