Default RG Crash Rebuild Photos

Well after a spill about amonth ago I've been putting the RG back together.
Here's a few photos as I modify the rear fender and bags.
boom cans will be here soon and that will take care of the current exhaust sticking out at the weird angle. I'll be cutting out the tailights and turn signals tomorrow.

Yeah she's coming along! Hmm I'm not sure which ones they are. I've never thought they were just amazing but my brother and different friends say they sound GREAT from behind. This is the stock photo of the ones I have.

Looks great!

How bad was the fender from the crash? Wouldn't care to donate it for a mod I'm plannin, would ya? I need a fender I can cut down, to turn my 'convertable' Road King into a bolt-on bobber...
