Hi bars look great on the Special! I'm getting a set of KST Kustoms 14" 1 1/2" thick Spearheads on my 2019 midnite blue Special TOMORROW! Can't wait! They're the last touch of many done over the cold Maine winter.

Cool
Thanks for all the excellent photos brotha! You have fine taste! I threw the visor cap on my main headlight as well. Love the vintage look it adds! I wish they'd make matching visor caps for my two running lamps too. I changed out the entire light setup up front. Went with Custom Dynamics LED's trun signals lamps, headlight & pair running lights. Removed the two under the bars..
Will post pics when I figure out how!
