Justa word of caution. That chrome will create one real bad glare in your face when the sun hits it! I have enough problems just with the chrome gas lid. I've considered doing something to diffuse that reflection.

I have it on my Ultra, but I haven't rode the bike since I put it on.

It is very easy to install, and it looks great.

I've got that problem with my RG. Thinking about going back to stock.

My brother just got one and I think he had the same problem.

What great timing! I was thinking about the same piece for my 05 Ultra. Never thought about the sun glare thing. Hey, anyone else with thoughts on this. I know I would appreciate them and I am sure the other guys would too.

thanks and ride safe (for those who can right now)
