I have been getting the sportster ready for my fiance bit by bit as time allows.
Burly slammer kit front and rear
Had to mod kickstand to make it sit right
Vertical plate with led lighting
Streetglide tailight (no window)
Dyna streetbob bars
Small fairing painted to match by yours truly
Solo seat modded (cut out spot for ecm)bike is a 2006
Fresh amsoil all around.
Fresh fork oil
That's about it
Plan to powder the wheels and pulley a dark gray at some point
I am looking for a set of mirrors as one of hers is worn out and won't stay in place
Thoughts?

 

damn...No response. It must be so breathtaking that yall cant even speak....
I may do LED tail light (smoked) and turn signals for her. And I want to PC those wheels and rotors.
No suggestions?

 

I'm not sure powder coating rotors is a great idea, just imo.

 

Ah! At first I thought you were just rattling off your wish list...which would prompt me to roll my eyes and move on. After a few looks, I see you've actually done most of this. Guessing I'm not the only one.

Mirrors - Nothing more functional than the stockers. Maybe try flipping them under the bars for a diff look? Maybe a single mirror off the vertical part of the bar for an old school look? The Chinese ebay cheapies will always disappoint. Spend money here.

PC wheels - Stay away from gloss unless your mags are smooth as glass, which I don't think they are. Otherwise the orange peel will be really obvious.

Signals - Relo the fronts to the forks and get rid of those wings on the back. I prefer a more sleek look. Custom Dynamics is one of my favs for quality lighting.

Toss all those reflectors.

The bike is saying old school to me,..so I'd stay in that zone. Looks good so far.

 

We're speechless! What does your fiancee think!!! Does she know what you're up to?

 

Yeah. I meant to say the pulley. Wheels and pulley.

 

Yeah she knows. She is more than happy to see my money go to that sporty instead of my roadglide...lol

 

"Solo seat modded (cut out spot for ecm)bike is a 2006"
I would really like to see pics of this.
Also, how'd you mod the jiffy stand? Torch?
It's lookin' good.

 

Basically we took some paint and outlined the ECM or whatever that box is under the seat. I then placed the seat in position. This transferred the outline of the ECM onto the seat pan. Then took a dremel with cut wheel to the plastic pan.
As far as the kickstand we ground out some space behind it. I will have to get some pics but it's not finished yet

 

powdering the rotors is fine. Just dont powder the swept outer portion.

these are both powdered.



Powdered pulley:



i have a set of chrome stock mirrors if you need them.
