Default Installed a Cross Bones seat on my Springer Classic

Here's some pics of my bike after some recent mods. I installed the cross bones spring seat (bought from sarge4life), V&H True Duals with fishtails, front springer horn and teardrop rocker covers.

I'm still trying to decide if I should add some driving lamps

Nice bike....That seat is one of the most comfortable
stock HD seats.
Driving lights might look nice too...
Great look.

Looks great. IMO the diving light would be the finishing touch.

I did have to modify the battery cover as it's shaped to be used with the bobtail fender. I used my dremel to cut parts off from the rear of the cover as it was too wide, it's not a perfect fit but it'll do... at least for now.

Looks great man, I´m wondering If it would fit on my ´99 Fat Boy... first impression is not, at least not as easy as on your bike...

Any thougths on that?

Mimo.
