Default 2012 FLHRC - And so it begins.

Day one, just picked it up yesterday. It already looks different!

Moved a bunch of little stuff over from the Heritage I just traded (shifter pegs, mirrors, Air Wing horn cover, run/brake/turn signal module).

Installed the SE air cleaner but ditched the football and put on net Joker Machine insert. Also pass footboard covers.

On the to-do list is to remove the reflectors(!), install highway pegs, replace rear turn signal bar with the bullet, install derby cover, relocate the license plate.

14" Wild 1 Chubby's go on in the spring. (stock bars are horrible on the FLHRC's, dont you think?)

Bike looks great! I must be the oddball because the bars don't bother me all that much

A week after suffering through the stock bars I swapped out for WO502's. I could've gone with 14" but I'll be changing the seat out to sit me lower and I didn't want my hands too far above shoulder height.
