My bike, my thread
I picked up my first Harley this past winter. It is a 2006 Streetbob with 10,000km. When I picked it up it had forward controls, a 2" riser, V&H exhaust and a windshield, otherwise stock.
I am going to use this thread to track its transformation from what I bought to whatever it may become. Mechanically I am pretty much useless but I am going to do as much stuff as I can myself (with help from friends, or people I know that will help for beer).
Please feel free to compliment, criticize or ask any questions.

Before I continue, I should mention that for a very long time now I have been lurking on this board taking it all in and had decided that Last Saint and Sick With It's (sp?) bike were the **** and would be the direction this bike is taken. Recently so many more bikes are turning up on here with that style and I now have so much more inspiration to pull from.....this site rocks!
So up first, the C&C fastback seat with grey devil tails stitching. C&C were a great company to work with and I appreciate all that Chuck and his parents did in providing a great product and service.
Coming soon.....passenger pegs and 10" West Coast T-bars

Great looking "Starter" bike. LOL Enjoy the process. This site has so much insight and wisdom to pull from that I recommend doing ALL the work yourself. To me, that's the fun of the whole thing. Anybody can throw money at a bike and have the dealers do all the work. Make it YOURS and become intimately familiar with it. You'll appreciate it all that much more. Ride ON!!!!

If you're interested in passenger pegs, I have a set that would look pretty good on your scoot. I got them with a seat I ordered, but already had a set. If you're interested send me a message. The p/n for the bracket is 49249-06 and the pegs are chrome with thin rubber pads running the length of the peg. I can't find them on HDs website, but I have pictures if you'd like to see them. I'm guessing the setup would cost around $200 through HD, but like I said, I got them with a seat I ordered so I'll sell them pretty cheap.
I don't think they were ever installed. The chrome is in perfect shape.
Let me know.
