Default 2011 FLTRX project

Hi,
Just purchased a 2011 Black Road Glide (FLTRX) and want to try something different. My last project on a Rocker C was fine, but I want to create a bad boy with incorporation of high tech parts. First off, I would like to install carbon fiber wheels on this bike. In addition, new rotors/pads to lighten the rotational load. I also want to install titanium pipes as well. If you have any information on companies that manufacture these products can you let me know? Thanks.

Link to the Rocker C. These are older pics as the oil tank is now chromed with blue pin stripping, a small chin spoiler has been added with flames of course and many of the chrome parts where replated or replaced.

I believe revolution manufacturing makes carbon fiber wheels. Not sure if they make them for baggers...

As for ti pipes, that will have to be a custom set. We are making some for my 09 street glide build and my buddy is good friends with the owner of FMF pipes. He made us a custom set of ti pipes on our last build but it was sponsored for that build. I can ask to see what they charge for custom pipes... We make a set of mock up pipes and send it to them to have them copied. Maybe this will help you

That sounds like a plan. Let me know how much this will cost.
Thank you.
