Dragged the right peg yesterday, and the left today, for the first time since getting my rear shocks properly set and adding grippy, correctly inflated, V-rated tires. Had to lean way more than I used to lol. Now I can mark where the chicken strips should be. Not that I believe in such nonsense, but I don't want the other kids to make fun of me ...

7.) installed integrated smoked park / brake / turn signal
8.) front fork fluid (20W)
9.) Arlen ness big sucker 2
10.) rear brake pad
cleaned up the wheels and rotors also, waiting on exhaust flanges and gaskets to get in and then going to give it a good cleaning! help.... quarantine has made me spending more money than ever!
these are before and during pictures. afters will be soon to come! Stay safe every one!

That tail light is cool, but aren’t you at risk of hitting it with the tire on a hard bump that bottoms the suspension? The pic looks like there’s not much more then an inch or two clearance?

Always a good time, and just a little disconcerting when you first hear it grind! I have to admit that I'm glad my pegs hit first--I have a deep, unnatural attachment to my V&H Big Shots--no one understands our love!

Swapped from 8” straight Biltwell risers to 10” pullbacks and man, now I know what the wife’s talking about. Another 2” and a curve makes all the difference. Lol


my wiring and cable situation is wack I know but I didn’t want to run my wires internally until I settled on a bar/riser setup. Besides the fairing covers everything from view but still.

not at all, that is the factory mounting plate that cleaned up, the tire tucks in behind it, ill attach a pic of what it looks like from the side.

Knowing I’ll never find the coveted T-sport I’ve always wanted, I had to turn the ‘06 into my “poor mans T-sport”. Bought the replica fairing from a guy in Cali for dirt cheap, it was even the same color. The color isn’t a CVO or rare color, just not one you see a lot of. (At least I don’t anyway. Had the LeatherPros already, threw on the required headlight block and it’s finished...for now 😉

Got my LA Choppers Kage Fighter 10" pullback bars installed with some new black mirrors. I have the Dyna exactly how I want it now! Perfect fit for me with the fairing. Loving it!
