Nice job, U've done what I've thought about on the front end, PC'ed the forks and the rings on the lights..
I like doing leather work, but I'll have to say I've never seen the two tone done.. I like....
I've order more leather, what I used so far is thinner (Deer skin) than I like for fringe. Deer is fine for covering things but for the fringe going with ELK Skin this time. Its bout 2x as thick as Deer.
Don't have the rear guards but do have the engine guard. I was thinking those would look good PC'ed also, along with the rims.
Are those the newer V&H''s pro pipes, can't really tell with the fringe covering them.? IF so how U like them.? I'd Love to see the dyno sheet if U got one done and have it.
Here's what I did with the stock pillion, cut it down, formed the foam, then our auto trim shop recover it. Made a great backrest/fender bib that matches the bags when riding solo.

Pictures 6-12 shows the leather work I did.
Bought the rear touring package for the wife, Seat, sissy pad/quick detach and floorboards. SO Stock seat was just collecting dust.
Overall U've got a good looking Heritage...
