Nice looking bike. I really like the looks of the comfort profile saddlebag bars. May look at changing mine out. Boy I can't wait for spring to get here. You guys talking about riding is painful to read at time. Maybe a move to So Cal is in order.

Steve - Great looking bike!! The Merlot/Cherry is a sweet color - one of my favorites. Kudo's on the accessories too, I'm really liking the HD fender rails.

Hey Wiskers, where did you get your lever braided wraps? Love the bike man. Lot's of great ideas. Ordered the bag guards for mine the other day.

Here is an updated pic of mine. I've added a tourpak , new bars and a few other items since I last posted a pic of it. Not sure if I am making it more classic or less, but I have been riding longer distances and the extra storage is great!

Greaseball, What/where/who made your center console/dash. I think it looks great.
My bad if this question was already asked/answered and I missed it.

Dane, I'll be honest with you ; I ridden off with the keys in the lock. But only once so far...
Thanks,

Hi John,

What model Samsons do you have? I just bought my bike and it has the Samson Rolled Thunder slip on's. I have not ridden it yet but is seems loud. Do you know if you can change the baffles on these pipes?

Also I noticed on one of your previous posts that you have the Howard's Horns Duo's. How do you like this setup? Are they as loud as advertised?
