Default It cost me $124.15 to REMOVE a part from my Ultra...

Man they get ya comin' and going don't they?

I decided to remove my Twin Rail Chrome Saddlebag Guards from my Ultra (91216-97).

In doing so, I still needed to support the saddlebags, so I had to buy the single rail saddlebag chrome support (46565-04). With tax buying locally, they would have been $151.28.

Bought from Surdyke in MO for a nice discount.

But still.......man this is an expensive hobby when you gotta PAY to remove parts...

Looks a lot "cleaner" though....the same day, the extra chrome rail/bumper/crap on the ends of the front and rear fenders went bye bye.

You gotta learn to do your own work, and pocket the cash savings for more chrome

So list your takeoffs in the classified section and recoup some of your money.

Who said I didn't do my own work?

The cost was for the single rail supports I needed as all support was removed.

What part of this didn't you understand?

And yes the take off's are on eBay and here (shameless plug).
