Welcome to the group.

 

Welcome to the forum. Definetly hide the checkbook and the credit cards. I have an 05 Standard, that is now, not so standard anymore.; Love the bike, can't stop customizing though..not a bad thing...ride safe

 

welcome aboard...now the fun begins

 

nice bike, get some popcorn and stay a while

 

I just saw my first one of these the other day at the local HD shop. I was really impressed with the look of the flat black FLHT. You got a gorgeous bike. That "blank canvas" will cost you big bucks though as you start to add stuff to it.

 

Thanks y'all to all your kind responses.

So far I've been very lucky. My OL has really gotten into riding with me and spending pesos on shiny and/or black things Yikes! I know....I like the blacked-out look - but that look seems to be waaaay popular. I have the word "ironic" in mind with what I want to do in customizations. Black and chrome...Shiny and dark....Offsetting tones. We shall see.

To answer the questions that I remember:

The radio:Just the stock HD radio. I'll get a pic up ASAP. Inside of my fairing doesn't look much different than what an SG or Ultra's does - except I'm minus two gauges.

Location: Cameron Texas

If I missed any - I apologize. If you have some more...let me hear'em

 

So far I've been lucky. I bought the SG windshield for $25 off a guy on Craigslist. He is 6'-7" and the shorty windshield is obviously too short for him. Bought the HD highway bar pegs for $25 as well. I was able to find a good deal on the sissy bar. All of the used stuff I have bought looked like I picked it up new directly from the dealership. I have access to powdercoat for the parts that I want blackened.

Dreaming up what I want to do, deciding what its going to take to do, and finding good deals - and meeting new friends along the way is a lot of fun for me.

 

nice looking bike my good man...
