I think their sexier than a Street Glide when stripped down.(not that I don't like Street Glides) I took the vents out of my lowers and now I don't even know they're there. It funnels the wind past the engine nicely. ( I didn't want to take the lowers off with my speakers )

You should change out the rear shocks to 12" to get that low lean look.

That's nice,what seat is that. I have the piston back rest which is making it hard to change seat unless I take it off.
