Brycenator, It's an easy install. I ran the wires around the back of the forks. I use the Wind Spliter windshield and there is no problem. The part number is 67800167. If you want to mount a windshield, you need the hardware package 58221-04.

Front rocker box leaking too...

Guess it's a known issue.

I had the same repair to both of my head gaskets and my buddy who bought his RKS at the same time had to have his done also.

These bikes look so good in black. Almost wish I’d held out for black, but my flat gray is nice too.

Happy New Year.

Great looking bike! Is that their CVO Windshield? What are your thoughts?

You guys do have cool looking bikes. My problem is I like chrome. If they made a chrome model I would be buying one for sure.

The Vivid Black was the color on my former 2003 Heritage Softail, it is nice, but I had forgotten, it only take 60 seconds for the dust to show up...lol...I also liked the other colors, Grey, Olive Gold, and I would have gotten the Red, but last two bikes were all red... so a change was in order...

I also added the passing lamps and relocated the turn signals.
