Good choice I'm loving my Cruisetec's

I have the Metzler Cruistecs on my Fat Bob and they transformed the bike. I'm swapping out the stock tires for Cruistec at my upcoming 1,000 service.

Cam will be here Friday so that may be a weekend task but my new pup will be here Friday as well so may spend the weekend with him and the wife.







Settled on the Wood 22X-E. It should put up good numbers with my TH and sound decent as well, so I will see how I like it.
That Woods sounds killer with a THeader. Love mine. Aaanndddd more pics of those fairing brackets

@shiftace Here are a couple more pics for you. Not sure what you were looking for so I did one of the front of the fairing, one looking down at the bracket, and one of the blinker bracket. the other side looks the same. Let me know if you want something more specific. Looking forward to hearing the TH with this cam, looked at a vid of it but you know that is never the same. All parts are in now so I will begin the install around work this week.

it’s been kinda stalled lately. Waiting on a rear rotor currently and a seat. Took 2 weeks to get a clutch cable. Front end is all buttoned up finally, one the rear rotors shows up I’ll throw that on and basically be done with it (for now). Still debating if I’m going to keep it or not. Options are flipping it and make A few bucks. Trading it for something cool (twin cam bagger, evo or shovel chopper, generator shovel FLH maybe) or just keep it another season and continue to fiddle with it.
