Pretty sure they're identical. I just powdercoated mine below on my 08 They are the same as the ones on my 06. You can just see the tops of them. I need some new pics with the various new black outs:

Not to hi-jack this thread, sorry, but did you go back to a smaller dia. wheel on the front? Looks different that your signature pic. And, wondering why, if you did?? And, what wrap around front fender is that?? Looks good!!

I have an 18/18 setup on now vs the 21/18. Still RC Component Czar Eclipse wheels. I didn't find the 21" front wheel/tire to give me the kind of ride I was used to and looking for in a bagger. It rode fine. In fact it rode very well, but it changed the feel of the bike too much for my taste, so I compromised with an 18 front as well as rear. I think I probably gave up a few style points, but the 18's with the fender have worked out for me. I tend to change things often though, so I may ride with the 21" or even the 16's again at some point...(truth be told, the best ride IMO of all the setups.)
The Fender is the Level from Klock Werks.
Sorry Bobberino...still think you're good with the strut covers though

Thanks for the info. I think I will stay with my 16" rear & go with a 18 front. I read your other thread that you posted pix and your bike looks great! I have an 07 SG in the same color. A work in progress, for sure. lol
