You can mount a tool box on the right side of the bike with true duals no problem...I've got one on my bike with true duals.

Get her done!
Sweet deal! I'll order them this week

I think the 21" up front and the duals out back set it off pretty good. I think its pretty well time to call this build complete and start a new one!

You are missing bugs, dirt and other road grime.

Nice looking Vicla... The tool box will fit with duels but only on the right side, the Springer guards will also bolt right on softail frames are all the same pretty much. I would slam the front, remove the rear fender apron, add a Nacelle headlight, remove the hi-way pegs. Other then that your bike is clean and that color looks amazing. Great work and vision.

Vicla is short or slang for bicycle in the Chicano/Hispanic/Mexican American language. The word “bicicleta” is the correct pronunciation in Spanish but in the Hispanic culture it has evolved to “Vicla” for short. With this said the word vicla can be used to describe anything with two wheels in the Hispanic culture, kind of like shorting the word bicycle in the English language to “bike”. Moving on I’ll make this as short as I can so it not a long boring read. As you may know the lowrider car scene is very strong and evident in the Hispanic/Chicano/Mexican American culture and we express ourselves with a certain style (low, lots of chrome, nice paint jobs). The low rider craze originated in Southern California in the 1950’s and is still very strong and it seems like all the new current ideas for cars and motorcycles originate in SoCal so the word “Vicla” just means bike or bicycle in slang but for some reason this forums has labeled this Chicano style look as a “Vicla” or also known as SoCal style Harley’s. Hope this makes sense.

Thank you and Likewise!! Shotgun shocks, tool box and springer bars are next on the list, as far as the from goes I'm still looking around. Leaning towards the progressive drop in monotubes.... This **** seems endless haha
