Didn't get much riding in today but improved my Street Bob
So today was a beautiful day here in the Northeast I hope all of you had a great day. I had a project that I wanted to tackle and I think it turned out pretty good. I wasn't really happy with the mini apes my 09 Street Bob came with so I tried a few things today, I found out drag bars will not work with the stock 09 tree so I had to get bars with a slight bend. I'm not sure what model bike the bars are actually for but they work great. I also added the black diamond pegs, shifter, grips, smoked lenses(not dark enough) and brake pedal. I love the way the plugs wires look and I have the hi flow air filter system coming tomorrow, I'm kind of excited. Here are a few pics, comments and suggestions welcome but only if their nice...........

I did get them from Harley they are oem and there were no holes to feed the wiring. I had to remove a good bit of the factory wires and I made sure I saved the factory loom/wire netting. I can take some closer pics if you want I think I did a good job I am kind of **** with my stuff so I did the best I could. The only problem I ran into was the clutch cable is too long so I had to use some zip ties to hide the wires but ona scale of 1-10 I would say it is a 9.5 and waaaaayyy better than paying the dealer, total cost $69 for the bars and like 14.99 for the fluid 4 hours of work did take frequent breaks to refuel myself.

Defiantly need a shorter clutch cable that looks crazy wrapped around the headlight other wise i like it, I decided to make my bars more comfortable by rocking them forward till they were 90deg from the ground gave me more reach and the handgrips are bout 1/2" taller, I like the stock bars now specially since they are drilled with internal wires. Will have to get pics up soon....
