You will love it when its done. Its costly, and you will probably add little things as you go through the project, but its worth it. I used all Bad Dad stuff, Arnott air ride, Big Fatty front rim......

Here is a link to my little write up. It has some pictures and some details on what I did. https://www.hdforums.com/forum/touri...ed-fender.html

I was wondering if it was Don building it. I stopped in and saw him the other day and he was telling me about a bagger he was building. He's a good guy. I use to hang around his shop a lot during the Intrepid days...not so much now.

Yeah, keep in touch...I'll ride!

This brings a question to mind.

When does a Harley become a custom motorcycle? After the first accessory? WHEN?

What has to be changed and how much before it's considered a custom bike?

Default Torn Up

Well, it is all torn up, and all my parts are rolling in. I get my fender and bags in three days. We will then mock it all up and out for paint it will go. I got my stretched tank shroud yesterday. I have not installed it yet, but put it on to get an idea of how it will look. Here are some next step pics.
