Might help to mention what you want their opinions about.

Or if you just want general opinions, looks good, only thing that I don't like is the rear turns look out of place chrome on black plates, would look into an integrated rear assembly if it's legal there.

Turn your pack around and use it for a backrest and get rid of the goofy looking luggage rack

Mini apes or taller might be more comfy for you, it helped my back on longer trips

I would go solo seat and quick detach with the windshield. I think the windshield serves a purpose but isn't needed all the time. I would also look into adding a solo rack so you don't have the luggage rack all the time. I say keep the crash bars, they can save a you a few bucks if you have a brain fart.

I would lose the luggage rack and bag and put a solo bag on the right side and a fork bag up front. That's what I plan to do with the WG I have on order when it gets here. A WG is a hot rod and IMO should be kept as clean as possible.

I would suggest a Mustang solo and I think the rest of your mods will fall into place
