Coming up next... Lyndall Bowtie Rotors (11.8) and Arlen Ness calipers (back ordered). Got the idea for these rotors from this thread, first saw them here on a fat-tire RKS (sick). Going to try them out on my slimmer 21" front wheel.

LOVE this bike. Close to 30K miles on it now. Riding season short here in WI
Finally decided its time for apes. Not sure which way Im going. Im 59 and thinking about 14 bars. Any favorites you guys? Who likes what? I could stay with Wild1 Chubby and do their apes. I like the Carlinis and meat hooks look cool. Holey Roller also makes a version I like.
Still trying to scour internet for pics
also. Seats? My better half is riding with me less and less so Im now looking for a solo seat. Love the look of a few Mustang seats. Anyone with something they love?
and while Im at it, Im thinking about upgrading my suspension - front and rear. Thanks for all the info above.
thanks guys.
again; pics coming soon.
Well sir...I just went from 14" KST Spearheads to 16" Carlini gangster apes. Love em! I'm 6' 230lbs. Have the Saddlemen Road Sofa extended reach heated. G/f & I love it. For solo went with Harley lo profile bought here on the forum. Have to say it's THE most comfortable solo seat I've ever set me *** on. Legend revo a's & axeo's shocks for superior confident handling. **** comes back home tomorrow, will post pics!

Sweet! Thanks. Appreciate that. Ill probably not go more than 14 since Im vertically challenged a bit at 59. And will 100% look into your suspension recs - Im 165 pounds, so I need to go pretty soft I think. Appreciate it.
A couple pics from last spring . Random parking lot after wrapped fender. I really like the look of the black fender instead of grey - keeps the front end all black.
Nice looking scoot. Wrapped fender looks good. Just be mindful if you ever try to put your bike in a wheel chock.
