Default New (sorta) Nightster

I've been posting on these forums here and there for a while, I figure now would be a time to actually post here since I now have my Nightster and I now have it the way I want it. I have an '07 Olive Green Nightster, I bought it for $7,400 with 2,000ish miles. Its my first real bike. I had a 1985 Honda Rebel some years back but I only drove it for about a month. I was originally thinking about getting a VROD but after seeing the Iron 883, I started looking into that, once I found out about the 1200's and came across the Nightster, I decided on a Nightster instead.

Heres what it looked like when I bought it.



and heres what it looks like now



I didn't do a whole lot, just raise the tank, flip the mirrors and relocated the speedometer. I"m real happy with the way it looks, I'd like to get myself a solo seat and some blacked out pipes but I'm in no rush.
