Default A Few New Street Bob Mods (with photos) *updated*

I have added a couple things to my '06 Street Bob and wanted to share.

- Kuryakyn Low Profile L.E.D. Tail Light
- Side Mount Plate Bracket (self made)
- Bottle Opener (a nod to another forum member)







... damn, I got to get those rear reflectors off!

UPDATED 10/21/07

I finally got fed up with the sloppy job I did on that side mount bracket and decided to redo it to where it matched the flow of the upper belt guard. I also took the time to round the corners and paint the bracket and the bolts (instead of using a Sharpie on them) with wrinkle black.

I know this post is old news but I just wanted to redeem myself for the previous sloppy work (it was my first time doing any metal work).

That is a good looking Street Bob. I must say that I love the idea of the bottle opener.

I love it. I just installed it yesterday and it took all of 10 minutes. And let me tell you - that thing is BRIGHT!

For the time being, those are the stock apes that come on the Street Bob.
I want to move up to the 14" Wild 1 Chubbies though...

Looks good.....you'll love the 14" Apes. I just did mine. If I could give you a tip buy +6 cables (unless you want to go bigger some day) I got all the part numbers for the Harley cables if thats what you want. I researched like crazy and took a shot at +6 and they're PERFECT.
