Default Bad Dad Transformation Complete

Stretched 'all n one' rear fender (I love the pulsating brake light)
Stretched 4 1/2 bags
Stretched side covers

Brotha is tired!!!! But it feels good to do my own work.

Gotta put it on the lift tomorrow and figure out why left side pipe sticks out about an inch more than right side. Only I would notice it…but with this setup, I could see it cuz I was investigating everything and the V&H emblem served as a great ruler. Thinking the mounting "points" may need adjustments on that left side.

Painter will wet sand on Monday and install my "under bag" protectors--I did do some testing today and was fine with a few very tight u-turns and took a few of my favorite back road curves and all was well. I'm sure I'll scrape on a major curve if I take it hard---but I had my neighbor follow me on his Ultra and he said I had plenty clearance with what I did on this lil test. I'm not a "hard" rider anyway…left that with the crotch rockets.

Hope u guys like it

Any scraping so far? And if so--what types of curves? Ordinary or the super sharp ones where you intentionally try to have some fun?

Looks great...That would drive me nuts...that would have to be fixed no matter what it would take. You may have to adjust both sides...one in and one out.

Very nice ride! It has just the right amount of chrome, not too over the top.
