my HD pegs were like $25 each when I converted my Fatboy from boards to pegs. I got the “stock” rubber ones - they don’t hafta be expensive...

Very nice!
I can put the blinkers back on in 30 mins or less if I need to. The factory did a nice job of making it plug and play.
Where did you get the blue tint windshield? Mine is all clear but I may look into colored tint or something.

HD pegs...Slims do not come with them for some reason. I think they were around $150. I don't really care for the way they look but they are functional if needed. I also have a detachable passenger seat not pictured.

The windshield is from Memphis Shades. They don’t yet make windshields for the ‘18 up Heritage so I had to swap the horizontal windshield braces for the ‘17 and earlier braces. Then it bolts up perfectly.

Doesn't get much more retro looking than these pair.


These two were built by HD dealership on Gold Coast, Australia

Really well done. Wonder how they located the front brake calliper. They can look bulky. Would ditch the number boards though. Are they selling them?
