Looks like a defect coming out the top of your bike!

No, just have them 21' spokes in front and 16" in the back and a lower fairing with a set of speakers .... and that would be it for this bike

rakanghoth,

That looks frickin' excellent. Before I bought my SG, I thought only "choppers" looked right with apes, custom exhaust, etc.

Now I'm going the other way. 18's are probably too much for me (this time), but maybe 14's. Love the look over the fairing. If I wanted my ride to look "like a bagger should" I'd leave it stock.

If you don't mind, post the cost of doing the changeover when you know. There are a lot of us who are very interested.

Thanks and cheers,

Greg
