Why not look for a leftover or low miles 11 in denim white, seems like it would be easier & cheaper in the long run.

Denim white makes me sick to my stomach for some reason. The pearl white on the 2012 ultra looks nice. I really wanted to like the white too..

No front bumper, no rails, SG mirrors - Certainly not "stripped down" by any means, but a couple options...

I should take that back.. The white hot denim looks good with chrome but not a fan of the blacked out ones I've seen. To each his own though.

I sold my rear crash guard and saddlebag surrounds on ebay, had enough to buy the streetglide style saddlebag supports and had a little left over. I was not going to spend money for a nice looking paint job, and cover it up with the saddlebag guards.

My dealer had a garage sale in december and I bought a set of takeoff street glide bag supports for $25.But I think I'm too chicken sh$t to put them on.I love that clean look but I know as soon as I installed them I'd drop her at the first stop light.

You could probably put a fairing on this one too if you really wanted to.
I've seen it done before.
Nothin' wrong w/a gal ridin' an SG either though..
