Did you have to modify the '09 head pipes to fit and work on your bike?

I got rid of mine all together and one of the best improvements I have made. I ditched the rubber bumper front and rear and saddlebag guards too.

Not to the right side, but I had to fab the crossover pipe where it is physically under the bike and adjusted the trans mount on the pipes to work with the fatcat transbracket.

Well that swap meet in Augusta was a total waste of time and the $7.50 admission price. It was just a bunch of old, dirty, broken, crap thrown out on tables with stupid high prices on it.

So my search continues for the custom passing/directional mounts.

Well, we're at least 2, cause I like the pancakes too. I just added chrome rings to them.
What I also did on the rear is to replace the wide turn signal bar by the narrow one. Looks better IMO.

Yeah I have to agree. I should have know better. Nothing indoor motorcycle related around here or a days drive away ever seems to be any good. Sorry for the bad lead and waste of money. Next time I see you out and about I will buy you a round

The big nasty pancakes were one of the first things that got tossed off the bike! LOL!

The mod is extremely easy on an Ultra because all the wiring is already there. You just have to splice the driving light wires and modify a socket to be able to tighten them down because a wire comes out of the bottom of the nut of the driving light. I just bought a cheap socket from HF and cut it with a hacksaw. I'll take a pic for ya.

Actually, HERE is the thread I made when I did mine. It was back when the forum was jacked up and the pics are gone, but if you need anything, LMK.

I want to thank you all for your part in spending my cash. I have never loved the pancake turn signals front or back on RKC, especially the rear bar. Needless to say after seeing how phenomenal your bikes look, I went with the same front set up UltraKla$$ic has and the bullet set up similar to a StreetGlide. A real clean set up.

Again, nice rides all around.

Not a problem, my buddy called me up and asked me if I wanted to go. I wasn't going to bother, but when he said he wanted to go I figured we'd give it a shot. Oh well, lesson learned for the future..........LOL
