Default Convert FLHTCUI into Street glide.

Has anyone did this and how does it look?
Thinking about buying a 2012 Flhtcui for cheap and converting over.
Will rear fender and front fender just bolt right on?

Yep, but just how cheap can you buy an Ultra compared to a SG & then start buying tins to convert it? A lot of people have done the quick detach deal to take off the TP & such, but if you start adding up all the stuff to actually make it a SG it's going to add up.

Done it to my ol' Ultra. Done lot of search and always wait for parts at the price you want to pay.

Changed fenders, wheels, dash and some other stuff

jeez, he even put the motor in sideways!
That is quite a conversion.




OP, most of the changes you suggest make no difference at 120 KPH- it'll only matter in the parking lot.

I've added some SG stuff to my 09 FLHTC- rear pegs, seat ( sometimes solo though) and 12" shocks.

and the extra trim i don't care about or see through the windscreen. i do like th saddlebag guards, they can prevent hundreds of dollars in damages




so that is the set up for in town or in State- day rides.

when I tour, the T/P goes on, big seat and 13" shocks
