Default I put a Sparto light on '06 SB

Because of the license plate law changes in Florida (has to be centered and horizontal) I switched my sidemount bracket and brake light to a Sparto one. I had to tap the two rear holes of the light to mount it with bolts from below. The front hole was already threaded? I bought it used on Ebay so I'm not sure if it came that way or not. I'm using the Kuryakyn led bolts to light up the plate at night. They're not real bright but should keep me legal.

I think it looks pretty decent. It'll look better when I buy the shortened turnsignal stalks to bring them in closer to the fender.

No, the rineharts are on my wife's Sportster. I have Bassani Pro Streets on my Bob. I would highly recommend the rineharts for looks and sound. They are a little pricey. They didn't fit the look I was going for on my Bob. I like the looks of the Bassani pipes but the sound is better on the rineharts.

Nice man! That thing looks good. I'm here in Florida too, so I might have to change out my current setup as well.. haven't decided yet though, but I guess we'll see.

Steve, the seat is just the stock solo recovered. I still like the looks of the stock seat profile over any of the aftermarket seats.

The fender is a project I started (still not finished, needs cleaned up and painted or powdercoated). I bought the fender blank off Ebay for $25 and started cutting. It was the first metal work I've ever done. Really, working on my bike is the first mechanical stuff I've done and awakened the "Beast" within me. I've done a lot of wiring, changed the front fork lowers and triple tree, installed the forward controls by taking of the primary cover etc..., internal wiring of the bars, and on... I almost like working on it as much as riding it. I had some pictures of the fender project on another post but they got deleted when this forum got revamped. Here are a couple more:
