Default So cal road king

Here is a 2004 Road King Custom I just finished. I bought it last month and transformed it into this. New 21/16 80 spokes, Avon venoms, fishtails. Genuine HD hard bags, beach bars, hand and foot controls and just about every piece of chrome I could find. I usually build stripped down blacked out Softies but I had this idea in my head and couldn't resist. What do you guys think??

Looks damn good. I like fishtail pipes when they're not nine miles long.

I love the so-cal, vicla style. I am in the process of modding my front fender to get my 21 fat spoke on to complete my setup. Your bike looks sweet, but hey, black always looks sweet.
