That's cool and all but you need to put saddlebag guards too in case you drop your bike. You put all that money into your bags and dont even consider saddlebag guards???

Im not talking about the wrap around ones. Im talking about the ones that go in front of the bags. They do make those in black.

Nice bike btw PSU... I can say I've visited your thread several times
Got mine blacked out just in time for the '18 roll out. Thankfully no blacked out orange CVO RGS in the lineup. Lol! Next is Stretched bags, and maybe a chopped touring pack.

Nice looking bike!!! ... Yes for sure unique.. Black and orange.

I'm not going to a complete blackout.. Keeping the engine/ middle area chrome. With just a little bit of chrome here and there. I like a little bit of a mix I guess.

Snail mail continued....


FINALLY!!! Arrived ... in 6 weeks!!

HD - Black dash....

With a mix a Performance Machine dash insert/ fuel door... Also finished installing my HD black front turn signals.

Now to go down low... And get rid of the hideous stock HD floorboards/ Passenger pegs/ Brake pedal/ Shift levers/ **** rod... I need to get this small dollar stuff taken care of. I'm almost there!

Then time to save save save... For the pricey stuff. (Wheels/ tires/ rotors/ and rake it out).

Going to give it a nice cleaning tomorrow... With a side of ride
