Default Street King Progress

Well, I got my Firebagger fairing, street glide rear fender and RWD fender back from paint on Friday.&nbsp\\; I got the fairing back together last night and got the front fender swapped out today.&nbsp\\; I think I am going to wait a week or two until I get my chrome wheels to put the rear fender on.&nbsp\\; I figure I might as well only take the rear wheel off once.&nbsp\\; Take a look at the pics.
&nbsp\\;
I laugh in the face of the dealer that told me it would cost $8500 to trade my '07 Road King for an '08 Street Glide.&nbsp\\; Ha!&nbsp\\; I'll make my own and have custom wheels for around $5K!

I'm doing the same thing to my King.&nbsp\\; Went with the Dead Center Fairing, and the Chopped Tour pak to finish off the back.&nbsp\\; Best of all.....it's detachable.&nbsp\\; Best of both worlds.&nbsp\\; Only thing I wished I had was all the gauges.&nbsp\\; That may be next winter's project when the snow flys.&nbsp\\; Lookin good.&nbsp\\; CCRyder
