I think it's well done and very nice looking!

I would have rather seen the MoCo offering that than the Blackline

Two things I don't like about those conversions.

One, the back fender. Is it impossible to create a normal looking fender?
Like use one modified from a standard Touring bike? That clip-on deal is kinda ugly.

Two, The fake tank looks too small in relation to the fairing. Even it it's fake, at least make a new one that looks wider and maybe holds some gas? Go figure...

Or, just put a VRod engine directly into a Road Glide. Being a "toy" I wouldn't give a care about the lack of "touring torque", gas mileage, or the normal controversies people argue about when it comes to these contraptions. Would be fun to ride regardless.
