Hmm, ok yeah they just seem like they are really common on here.
It just appears common because forums (of any hobby) are generally populated by people very passionate about their hobby. So you see a lot of the same mods (because they work). I can tell you with a fact, that in my area apes on batwings is very uncommon and 21" wheels on baggers is less common. Really makes my bike stand out, but still relatively tame compared to some bikes you see on the forums. It's all about perspective and the population sampling.
Nice bike man!! Give me some more details. Mirrors? Wheels? Looks like you still got the factory brakes on the front.
Thanks, it's just an old Ultra with some parts bolted on it. Mirrors are Ness Rad II and the 21" is a Revtech Eliminator 7 and yes i still have factory brakes on it (for now)

I agree 100% and you can't imagine how these bagger with apes and 21" are rare here in France...
Not suppose to have to extend anything for the 10's. One reason I wanted them. He is suppose to ship them out in the morning!! I already warned my wife about the cuss fest that is fixin to take place at the house running those stupid wires. It took me nearly all day to run them thru the Street Slammer bars on the FXST. I sure hope these go smoother. Gonna look into the SE TBW deal to make life easier.
Question, and bare with me if this is a stupid question. If I try to run the normal TBW thru the bars and fawk it up can I get the SE TBW deal and put it on?? Sorry I just dont know the DBW system.
Good question..!!! I am not sure but when you find out, post and let us know. I too am thinking about the 10's. I just dont want to "fawk" with the bleeding and clutch adjustments. However, International Motorcycle Show takes place in about a week.(Chicago) Maybe my ideas will change but I am definitely looking for less work. Good luck!!
